Mercury Marine Validated Engine Mounting Hardware
IMPORTANT: Mercury Marine provides validated fasteners and installation
instructions, including torque specifications, with all of our outboards so they
can be properly secured to boat transoms. Improper installation of the outboard
can cause performance and reliability issues that can lead to safety concerns.
Follow all of the instructions relating to the outboard installation. DO NOT
mount any other accessory onto the boat with the fasteners provided with the
outboard. For example, do not mount tow sport bars or boarding ladders onto
the boat using the mounting hardware included with the outboard. Installing
other products onto the boat that utilize the outboard mounting hardware will
compromise the ability of that hardware to properly and safely secure the
outboard to the transom.
Outboards that require validated mounting hardware will have the following
decal on the transom clamp.
Installing Outboard
We strongly recommend that your dealer install your outboard and related
accessories to ensure proper installation and good performance. If you install
the outboard yourself, follow the instructions in the manual which is provided
with the outboard.
NOTE: Most boats are rated and certified in terms of their maximum
horsepower limit, and this is shown on the boat's certification plate. Do not
equip your boat with an outboard that exceeds this limit. If in doubt, contact
your dealer. Do not operate the engine until it has been securely mounted on
the boat in accordance with the instructions below.
