Before operating the boat, check
the tightness of the clamp screws.

Tie a rope through the hole in the
stern bracket and secure the
other end of the rope to the boat.
This will prevent accidental loss
of the motor.
NOTE:
To prevent the outboard motor from
falling accidentally, you may further
secure the stern bracket to the
transom board with commercially
available bolts, nuts and washers.
After attaching the stern bracket to
the transom board, be sure to apply
sealant (THREEBOND 1216 or e-
quivalent) to the bolt holes.
This modification should be made
by your authorized Honda Outboard
Motor dealer.
