Clamping the outboard motor
1. Place the outboard motor on the tran-
som so that it is positioned as close to
the center as possible. Tighten the tran-
som clamp screws evenly and securely.
Occasionally check the clamp screws
for tightness during operation of the out-
board motor because they could be-
come loose due to engine vibration.
WARNING! Loose clamp screws
could allow the outboard motor to fall
off or move on the transom. This
could cause loss of control and seri-
ous injury. Make sure the transom
screws are tightened securely. Occa-
sionally check the screws for tight-
ness during operation.

2. If the restraint cable attachment is
equipped on your engine, a restraint ca-
ble or chain should be used. Attach one
end to the restraint cable attachment
and the other to a secure mounting point
on the boat. Otherwise the engine could
be completely lost if it accidentally falls
off the transom.
3. Secure the clamp bracket to the transom
using the bolts provided with the out-
board (if packed). For details, consult
your Yamaha dealer.
WARNING! Avoid
using bolts, nuts or washers other
than those contained in the engine
packaging. If used, they must be of at
least the same quality of material and
strength and must be tightened se-
curely. After tightening, test run the
engine and check their tightness.
