exceeds this limit. If in doubt, contact your

ENOW00009-2A
WARNING
Mounting the outboard motor without
following this manual can lead to unsafe
conditions such as poor maneuverability,
lack of control or fire.
Loose clamp screws and/or mounting
hardware can lead to the release or dis-
placement of the outboard motor, possi-
bly resulting in loss of control and/or
serious personal injury. Be sure that fas-
teners are tightened to the specified
torque. Check the fasteners for tightness
before operating your outboard.
Be sure to use outboard mounting hard-
ware included in the outboard motor
package or their equivalents in terms of
size, material, quality and strength.
Outboard motor mounting must be per-
formed by trained service person(s) using
lift or hoist with sufficient capacity.
