Running-In Procedure; Stopping Procedure; Emergency Stopping Procedures; Stopping In Normal Conditions - SELVA MARINE SEA HORSE2,5 Owner's Manual

RUNNING-IN PROCEDURE

A SELVA outboard motor is tested completely in our workshop and it is
partially run in a tank. A second test is done by the dealer. It is always
advisable to complete the running-in procedure in the following way:
During the first 3 running hours do not accelerate too much,
and during the following navigation hours you can accelerate
properly but only for short periods.
After about 20 hours you have to change entirely the gearbox-
oil (see the greasing sectioning in this manual).
A good running-in will allow you to obtain a good
performance from your motor and a longer life.

STOPPING PROCEDURE

Emergency stopping procedures.

In an emergency you must stop your motor by pulling the
engine stop switch lanyard.
To start the motor again you have to install the lock plate again
on the engine stop switch.

Stopping in normal conditions

Place the gear-shift lever in the neutral position " N " (neutral gear);
accelerate lightly in order to avoid flooding, run the engine again at idling
speed and then push the stop button.

OPERATING IN REVERSE GEAR

To run in reverse gear you need to turn the engine through 180°
compared to the normal position.
When the engine is in reverse position, the motor's lift is automatically
prevented by a mechanism.

Removal of the motor from the boat

- release the clamp screws.
- lift up the motor vertically and keep it in this position till all the water has
run out from the cooling-water passages ( about 1 minute )
- tilt up the steering tiller
- transport the motor using the proper handle.
- lay down the motor only on its back side.
