SERVICING YOUR OUTBOARD MOTOR
THE IMPORTANCE OF
MAINTENANCE
Proper maintenance is essential for
safe, economical, and trouble-free
operation. It will also help reduce air
pollution.
To help you properly care for your
outboard
motor, the following pages
include a maintenance schedule,
routine inspection procedures, and
simple maintenance procedures using
basic hand tools. Other service tasks
that are more difficult or require
special tools are best handled by
professionals and are normally
performed by a Honda technician or
other qualified mechanic.
The maintenance schedule applies
to
normal operating conditions. If you
operate your outboard motor under
unusual conditions, consult an
authorized Honda Marine dealer for
recommendations applicable to your
individual needs and use.
Remember that your authorized
Ho
nda Marine dealer knows your
outboard motor best and is fully
equipped to maintain and repair it.
To ensure the best quality and
reliabil
ity, use only new, Honda
Genuine parts or their equivalents for
repair and replacement.
Maintenance, replacement, or
r
epair of the emission control
devices and systems may be
performed by any marine engine
r
epair establishment or individual,
using parts that are ‘‘certified’’ to
EPA standards.
Improperly maintaining this
outboard motor or failure to
correct a problem before
operation can cause a
malfunction in which you could
be seriously hurt or killed.
Always follow the inspection and
ma
intenance recommendations
and schedules in this Owner’s
Manual.
