Always follow common shop safety practices. If
you have not had training related to common shop
safety practices, you should do so to protect your-
self, as well as the people around you.
It is understood that this instruction sheet may be
translated into other languages. In the event of any
discrepancy, the English version shall prevail.
DO NOT do any repairs until you have read the in-
structions and checked the pictures relating to the
repairs.
Be careful, and never rush or guess a service pro-
cedure. Human error is caused by many factors:
carelessness, fatigue, overload, preoccupation,
unfamiliarity with the product, and drugs and alco-
hol use, to name a few. Damage to a boat and out-
board can be fixed in a short period of time, but
injury or death has a lasting effect.
When replacement parts are required, use
Evinrude/Johnson Genuine Parts or parts with
equivalent characteristics, including type, strength
and material. Using substandard parts could result
in injury or product malfunction.
Torque wrench tightening specifications must be
strictly followed. Replace any locking fastener
(locknut or patch screw) if its locking feature be-
comes weak. Definite resistance to turning must be
felt when reusing a locking fastener. If replacement
is specified or required because the locking fasten-
er has become weak, use only authorized
Evinrude/Johnson Genuine Parts.
If you use procedures or service tools that are not
recommended in this instruction sheet, YOU
ALONE must decide if your actions might injure
people or damage the outboard.
TO THE INSTALLER: Give this sheet and the op-
erating instructions to the owner. Advise the owner
of any special operation or maintenance informa-
tion contained in the instructions.
TO THE OWNER: Save these instructions in your
owner's kit. This sheet contains information impor-
tant to the future use and maintenance of your en-
gine.
