CAUTION
Before beginning the running test, check
that the boat with maximum capacity
loading floats on the water in a proper
attitude. Check the position of water sur-
face on the driveshaft housing. If the
water surface is near the bottom cowling,
in high waves, water may enter the engine
cylinders.
Incorrect outboard
h e i g h t or e x i s t e n c e o f un d e r wa t e r
object(s), such as hull bottom design,
bottom surface conditions or underwater
accessories, can cause water spray possi-
bly reaching the engine through an open-
ing of the bottom cowling during cruising.
Exposing the engine to such conditions for
extended periods can lead to severe
engine damage.
Tighten the clamp screws sufficiency,
otherwise falling down of outboard could
be happened.
