When laying the outboard front-side
down, turn the clamp bracket 90° clock-
wise or anti-clockwise so that it does not
interfere with the ground. Then tighten up
the steering adjustment screw to maintain
its position (see page 40).

Adding a fuel stabilizer
When adding a fuel stabilizer additive
(commercially available), first fill the fuel
tank with fresh fuel. If the fuel tank is only
partially filled, air in the tank can cause
the fuel to deteriorate during storage.
1. Before adding fuel stabilizer additive,
drain the carburetor (See page 56).
2. Follow the instructions on the label
when adding the fuel stabilizer addi-
tive.
3. After adding the additive, let the out-
board motor run in the water for 10
minutes to make sure any old fuel in
the fuel system has been completely
replaced by the fuel with additive.
4. Turn the engine OFF
