9. Check for a steady stream of water flowing out of the water
pump indicator hole.
IMPORTANT: If no water is coming out of the water pump
indicator hole, stop engine and check cooling water intake holes
for obstruction. No obstruction may indicate a water pump failure
or blockage in the cooling system. This condition will cause the
engine to overheat. Have the outboard checked by your dealer.
Operating the engine while overheated will cause engine damage.
Gear Shifting
IMPORTANT: Observe the following:
•
Never shift outboard into gear unless engine speed is at idle.
•
Do not shift outboard into reverse when the engine is not
running.
•
Your outboard has three gear shift positions to provide
operation. Forward (F), Neutral (N) and Reverse (R).
•
When shifting, always stop at neutral position and allow the
engine speed to return to idle.
•
Always shift outboard into gear with a quick motion.
•
After shifting outboard into gear, advance the lever further to
increase speed.
