INTAKE MANIFOLD
WATER SEPARATOR
Water separator is located below the

water separator periodically. Clean it
or consult with an authorized
TOHATSU outboard motor dealer for
cleaning.
Gasoline is extremely flammable,
and gasoline vapor can explode,
causing serious injury or death. Do
not smoke or allow flames or
sparks in your working area.

• Always work in a well-ventilated
area.
• Be sure that any fuel drained
from the outboard motor is
stored in a safe container.
• Be careful not to spill fuel when
cleaning the water separator.
Spilled fuel or fuel vapor may
