IMPORTANT: Visually inspect for fuel leakage from the drain
screw by squeezing the primer bulb until firm, forcing fuel into the
chamber.
Steering Link Rod Fasteners
IMPORTANT: The steering link rod that connects the steering
cable to the engine must be fastened using a special washer
head bolt (P/N 10‑849838) and self‑locking nylon insert locknuts
(P/N 11‑826709113). Never replace locknuts with common nuts
(nonlocking) as they will work loose and vibrate off, freeing the
link rod to disengage.
!
WARNING
Improper fasteners or improper installation procedures can
result in loosening or disengagement of the steering link rod.
This can cause a sudden, unexpected loss of boat control,
resulting in serious injury or death due to occupants being
thrown within or out of the boat. Always use required
components and follow instructions and torque procedures.
