Replacement parts

genuine Yamaha parts or parts of equivalent
design and quality. Any part of inferior quality
may malfunction, and the resulting loss of
control could endanger the operator and
passengers. Yamaha genuine parts and ac-

Severe operating conditions
Severe operating conditions involve one or
more of the following types of operation on a
regular basis:
●
Operating continuously at or near maxi-
mum engine speed (rpm) for many hours
●
Operating continuously at a low engine
speed (rpm) for many hours
●
Brief periods of rapid acceleration and de-
celeration followed by engine shut off be-
fore the engine has reached proper
operating temperature
●
Frequent quick acceleration and decelera-
tion
●
Frequent shifting
●
Frequently starting and stopping the en-
gine(s)
●
Operation that fluctuates often between
light and heavy cargo loads
Outboard motors operating under any of
these above conditions require more fre-
quent maintenance. Yamaha recommends
that you do this service twice as often as
specified in the maintenance chart. For ex-
ample, if a particular service should be done
at 50 hours, do it instead at 25 hours. This
will help prevent more rapid deterioration of
engine components.
