boat manufacturer.
●
Do not modify the outboard. Modifications
could make the motor unfit or unsafe to
use.
●
Never operate after drinking alcohol or tak-
ing drugs. About 50% of all boating fatali-
ties involve intoxication.
●
Have an approved personal flotation de-
vice (PFD) on board for every occupant. It
is a good idea to wear a PFD whenever
boating. At a minimum, children and non-
swimmers should always wear PFDs, and
everyone should wear PFDs when there
are potentially hazardous boating condi-
tions.
●
Gasoline is highly flammable, and its va-
pors are flammable and explosive. Handle
and store gasoline carefully. Make sure
there are no gas fumes or leaking fuel be-
fore starting the engine.
●
This product emits exhaust gases which
contain carbon monoxide, a colorless,
odorless gas which may cause brain dam-
age or death when inhaled. Symptoms in-
clude nausea, dizziness, and drowsiness.
Keep cockpit and cabin areas well ventilat-
ed. Avoid blocking exhaust outlets.
●
Check throttle, shift, and steering for prop-
er operation before starting the engine.
●
Attach the engine stop switch lanyard to a
secure place on your clothing, or your arm
or leg while operating. If you accidentally
leave the helm, the lanyard will pull from
the switch, stopping the engine.
●
Know the marine laws and regulations
where you will be boating - and obey them.
●
Stay informed about the weather. Check
weather forecasts before boating. Avoid
boating in hazardous weather.
●
Tell someone where you are going: leave
a Float Plan with a responsible person. Be
sure to cancel the Float Plan when you re-
turn.
●
Use common sense and good judgment
when boating. Know your abilities, and be
sure you understand how your boat han-
dles under the different boating conditions
you may encounter. Operate within your
limits, and the limits of your boat. Always
operate at safe speeds, and keep a careful
watch for obstacles and other traffic.
●
Always watch carefully for swimmers dur-
ing the engine operation.
●
Stay away from swimming areas.
●
When a swimmer is in the water near you
shift into neutral and shut off the engine.
