Servicing a Submerged Outboard
Motor
MAINTENANCE
COTTER PIN
DRAIN SCREW
Use a genuine Honda cotter pin
and bend the pin ends as shown.
Tighten the castle nut with your
hand first until the propeller has no
play. Then, tighten the castle nut
again with a tool until the groove
in the castle nut aligns with the
cotter pin hole. (Note that this tool
is not included in the tools that
come together with the outboard
motor.)
Install the thrust washer with the
grooved side toward the gear case.
Install the new propeller in the
reverse sequence to removal. Be
sure to replace the cotter pin with a
new one.
A submerged outboard motor must
be serviced immediately after it is
recovered from the water in order to
minimize corrosion.
If there is a Honda outboard motor
dealership nearby, take the outboard
motor immediately to the dealer. If
you are far from a dealership,
proceed as follows:
Remove the engine cover, and
rinse the outboard motor with
fresh water to remove salt water,
sand, mud, etc.
Loosen the carburetor drain screw,
drain the contents of the carburetor
into a suitable container, then
retighten the drain screw (see page
).
Remove the spark plugs.
Disengage the emergency stop
switch clip from the engine stop
switch and pull the recoil starter
grip several times to completely
expel water from the cylinders.
