electric system could perform poorly or
be overloaded, causing electric system
damage.
For electric start models, choose a battery
which meets the following specifications.

Battery specifications
The engine cannot be started if battery volt-
age is too low.

Propeller selection
Next to selecting an outboard, choosing the
right propeller is one of the most important
purchasing decisions a boater can make.
The type, size, and design of your propeller
have a direct impact on acceleration, top
speed, fuel economy, and even engine life.
Yamaha designs and manufactures propel-
lers for every Yamaha outboard motor and
every application.
Your outboard motor came with a Yamaha
propeller chosen to perform well over a
range of applications, but there may be uses
where a different propeller would be more
appropriate.
Your Yamaha dealer can help you select the
right propeller for your boating needs. Select
a propeller that will allow the engine to reach
the middle or upper half of the operating
range at full throttle with the maximum boat-
load. Generally, chose a larger pitch propel-
ler for a smaller operating load and a smaller
pitch propeller for a heavier load. If you carry
loads that vary widely, chose the propeller
that lets the engine run in the proper range
for your maximum load but remember that
you may need to reduce your throttle setting
to stay within the recommended engine
speed range when carrying lighter loads.
For instructions on propeller removal and in-
stallation, see page 59.
