CAUTION
Before running test, check the boat with
maximum loading capacity. Overloading or
incorre c t weight distribution of the
weight may result in boat to lose control,
even swamping or capsizing. Make sure
that there is enough distance between
bottom cowl and water surface to prevent
water from entering the engine.
Make sure to mount the engine in correct
position. If outboard motor is mounted
incorrectly, water may intrude the engine
from openings of the bottom cowl while
cruising. Exposing the engine to such con-
dition may result in severe damage to the
engine.
