BOLTING MOTOR TO TRANSOM
With motor resting on the boat transom, verify correct motor height.
Motor can be raised by using a lower set of mounting holes.
Apply silicone sealant or equivalent to the mounting bolt holes from
both side as shown. Secure the motor by installing the bolts from the
motor side. Tighten the HEX nuts. The bolts must have the sufficient
thread length to tighten down and have at least two or three threads
past the end of the HEX nut.
TORQUE: 54 N•m (5.5 kgf•m, 40 lbf•ft)
If the molding of the transom upper edge interferes with the
outboard stern bracket, add the plate or reconditioning the bump
and install the outboard stern bracket to the boat transom securely.
Using an air impact tool to tighten or loosen the transom bolts can
generate enough heat to damage the bolt threads. The air impact
tool can also produce enough tightening torque to damage the boat
transom.
