ENGINE OPERATION
Warm the engine at low engine speeds
for about three minutes. This allows the
lubricating oil to circulate to all parts
of the engine. Operating the engine
without warm up shortens the engine's
life.
Be sure to check that cooling water is
coming out of the cooling water check
port during warm up.
If the recoil starter fails to operate
• Remove the top cowl and the recoil
starter. Wrap a rope around the
starter pulley then pull quickly to
start.
• Use a 10 mm socket wrench as a
rope handle.

If the engine is operated without water
discharging from the check port or idle
port, the engine may over heat.

Be careful that your clothes or other
items do not get caught in the rotating
engine parts.
To prevent accident and injury, do not
re-attach the recoil starter after the
engine has been started using the
emergency starter rope. Be sure to put
the top cowl back on.
Immediately contact an authorized
dealer when reaching shore.
• Be sure that no bystander(s) is
within 2 meters from back of
starting operator.
• Do not operate the outboard motor
with top cowl removed from the
power unit, or contacting turning
flywheel which can lead to serious
personal injury.
