    Refuel in a well-ventilated area; refuel portable fuel tanks off the boat. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Take care not to spill gasoline, if gasoline spills, wipe it up immediately. Tighten the filler cap securely after refueling. If you should swallow some gasoline, inhale gasoline vapor, or get gasoline in your eye, get immediate medical attention.
  • Page 13 PARSUN dealers stock a range of propellers and can advise you and install a propeller on your outboard that is best suited to your application.
  • Page 14: Operation

    2 Operation 2.1 Installation Mount the outboard motor on the center line (keel line) of the boat. For boats without a keel or which are asymmetrical, consult your dealer. 1. center line (keel line) NOTE: During water testing check the buoyancy of the boat, at rest, with its maximum load. Check that the static water level on the exhaust housing is low enough to prevent water entry into the power head, when water rises due to waves when the outboard is not running.
  • Page 15: Mounting Height

    The optimum mounting height of the outboard motor is affected by the boat and motor combination and the desired use. Test runs at a different height can help determine the optimum mounting height. For further information, consult your PARSUN dealer or boat manufacturer.
  • Page 16: Clamping The Outboard Motor

    2.1.2 Clamping the outboard motor 1. Tighten the transom clamp screw evenly and securely. Occasionally check the clamp screws for tightness during operation of the outboard motor because they could become loose due to engine vibration. CAUTION: Outboards that use clamp bracket screws alone are INSUFFICIENT to properly and safely secure the outboard to the Transom.
  • Page 17: Breaking In Engine

    3. Secure the clamp bracket to the transom using the appropriate bolts. For details, consult your PARSUN dealer. WARNING Avoid using bolts, nuts or washers inappropriate. After tightening, test run the engine and check their tightness. 2.2 Breaking in engine Your new engine requires a period of breaking to allow mating surfaces of moving parts to wear in evenly.
  • Page 18: Pre-Operation Checks

    2.3 Pre-operation checks Fuel Check to be sure you have plenty of fuel for your trip. Make sure there are no fuel leaks or gasoline fumes. Check fuel line connections to be sure they are tight Be sure the fuel tank is positioned on a secure, flat surface, and that the fuel line is not twisted or flattened, or likely to contact sharp objects.
  • Page 19: F I L L I N G F U E

    Check the oil level using the dipstick to be sure the level falls between the upper and lower marks. Fill with oil if it is below the lower mark, or drain to the specified level if it is above the upper mark.

    3. Securely close the cap after filling the tank. Wipe up any spilled fuel. 2.5 Starting engine 1. Connect fuel joints securely after loosing the air vent screw on the fuel tank cap (2 or 3 turns). 2. Connect fuel joints securely and squeeze the primer pump with the outlet end up until you feel it becomes firm .
  • Page 21 3. Place the gear shift lever in neutral. NOTE: The start-in-gear protection device prevents the engine from starting except when in neutral. Attach the engine stop switch lanyard to secure place on your clothing, or your arm or leg. Then install the lock plate on the other end of the lanyard into the engine stop switch.
  • Page 22 4. Place the throttle grip in the “START” (start) position. 5. Pull out the choke knob fully. 1. choke knob NOTE: It is not necessary to use the choke when starting a warm engine. If the choke is left in the home position while the engine is running, the engine will run poorly or stall.
  • Page 23 6. Pull the manual starter handle slowly until you feel resistance. Then give a strong pull straight to crank and start the engine. Repeat if necessary. 7. After the engine starts, slowly return the manual starter handle to its original position before releasing it.
  • Page 24 2. Attach the engine stop switch lanyard to a secure place on your clothing, or your arm or leg. Then install the lock plate on the other end of the lanyard into the engine stop switch. WARNING: Attach the engine stop switch lanyard to a secure place on your clothing, or your arm or leg. Do not attach the lanyard to clothing that could tear loose.
  • Page 25 NOTE: It is not necessary to use the choke when starting a warm engine. If the choke is left the home position while the engine is running, the engine will run poorly or stall. 6. Turn the main switch to “START” (start), and hold it for a maximum or 5 seconds. 7.
  • Page 26: Warming Up Engine

    If water is not flowing out of the hole at all times while the engine is running, stop the engine and check whether the cooling water inlet on the lower case or the cooling water pilot hole is blocked. If the problem cannot be located and corrected, consult your PARSUN dealer.

    2.7 Shifting WARNING: Before shifting, make sure there are no swimmers or obstacles in the water near you. CAUTION: To shift from forward to reverse or vice versa, first close the throttle so that the engine idles (or runs at low speeds). 2.7.1Forward 1.
  • Page 28: R E V E R S

    For F6/8/9.8FW Pull up the neutral interlock rigger and move the remote control lever quickly and firmly from neutral to forward. 2.7.2 Reverse WARNING: When operating in reverse, go slowly. Do not open the throttle more than half. Otherwise the boat could become unstable, which could result in loss of control and an accident. 1.
  • Page 29 2. Move the gear shift lever quickly and firmly from neutral to reverse. For F6/8/9.8FW 1. Tighten the steering friction adjuster by turning it clockwise to prevent the motor from turning freely. Pull up the neutral interlock rigger and move the remote control lever quickly and firmly from neutral to reverse.

    2.8 Tiller 1. Change direction To change direction, move the tiller handle to the left or right as necessary. 2. Change speed Turn the grip counterclockwise to increase speed and clockwise to decrease speed. 3. Throttle indicator The throttle indicator is on the throttle grip. The fuel consumption curve on the throttle indicator shows the relative amount of fuel consumed for each throttle position.
  • Page 31 4. Throttle friction adjuster The throttle friction adjuster is on the tiller handle, which provides adjustable resistance to movement of the throttle grip, and can be set according to operator preference. To increase resistance, turn the adjuster clockwise. To decrease resistance, turn the adjuster counterclockwise. When constant speed is desired, tighten the adjuster to maintain the desired throttle setting.

    2.9 Stopping engine NOTE: Before stopping the engine, first let it cool off for a few minutes at idle or low speed. Stopping the engine immediately after operating at high speed is not recommended. 1. Push and hold the engine stop button until the engine comes to a complete stop. NOTE: If the outboard motor is equipped with an engine stop switch lanyard, the engine can also be stopped by pulling the lanyard and removing the lock plate from the engine stop switch.

    3.5 Changing engine oil WARNING: Avoid draining the engine oil immediately after stopping the engine. The oil is hot and should be handled with care to avoid burns. Be sure the outboard motor is securely fastened to the transom or a stable stand. CAUTION: Change the engine oil after the first 10 hours of operation, and every 100 hours or at 6-month intervals thereafter.
  • Page 43: Checking Wiring And Connectors

    Check that each grounding wire is properly secured and each connector is engaged securely. 3.7 Checking leakage Check that no exhaust or water leaks from the joints between the exhaust cover, cylinder head, and body cylinder. Check for oil leaks around the engine. CAUTION: If any leaks are found, consult your PARSUN dealer.
