SAFE OPERATION OF BOAT
As the operator/driver of the boat, you are responsible for the safety of those aboard
and those in other boat around yours, and for following local boating regulations. You
should be thoroughly knowledgeable on how to correctly operate the boat, outboard
motor, and accessories. To learn about the correct operation and maintenance of the
outboard motor, please read through this manual carefully.
It is very difficult for a person standing or floating in the water to take evasive action
should he or she see a power boat heading in his /her direction, even at a slow speed.
Therefore, when your boat is in the immediate vicinity of people in the water, the
outboard motor should be shifted to neutral and shut off.
SERIOUS INJURY IS LIKELY IF A PERSON IN THE WATER MAKES CONTACT WITH
A MOVING BOAT, GEAR HOUSING, PROPELLER, OR ANY SOLID DEVICE RIGIDLY
ATTACHED TO A BOAT OR GEAR HOUSING.
