Fuel leakage can cause fire or explosion,
potentially leading to severe injury or loss of
life. Ever y par t of fuel system should be
inspected periodically. Inspect for fuel leak,
hardness or any alteration of rubber, expan-
sion and/or corrosion of metals especially
after long term storage. In case any indica-
tion of fuel leakage or degradation in fuel
system is found, replace the part immedi-
ately before using the outboard motor.

Use of engine oils that do not meet these
requirements will result in reduced engine
life, and other engine problems.
Use a genuine two stroke engine oil or
ones recommended (TC-W3). Refer to
your Distributor.
Use of other two stroke oil is not recom-
mended.
Add engine oil into fuel tank. The mixing
ratio of gasoline and oil is 50:1. Make sure
that gasoline and oil are mixed well. The
mixing ratio during break in is 25:1.

CAUTION
Do not use other than two stroke engine
oil with specified grade, or the engine
may be damaged.
Do not use fuel prepared in other than
specified mixing ratio.
- Lack of engine oil can cause severe engine
problems such as piston seizure.
- Excess of engine oil can shorten spark
plug life, and/or cause increase of noxious
exhaust.
For quantities of engine oil and gasoline
to be pre-mixed, refer to table on this
page.
For outboard motor with integral
fuel tank:

Prepare separate fuel container for
pre-mixing.
2
Pour engine oil into fuel container, and
then, gasoline.
