Uncrating procedure
1. Check the crate for any shipping dam-
age.
2. Open the top cover.
3. Remove the wrapping, and then check
the outboard motor for concealed
damage.
4. Pass the lifting rope around the carrying
handle. NOTICE: Do not use a lifting
harness to lift up the outboard motor.
5. Tension the lifting rope.
6. Lift up the outboard motor carefully so
that the carrying handle is facing up.
7. Place the outboard motor on the boat or
on a stand.
Place the outboard motor on the boat or on a
stand so that the clamp bracket is in the tilt-
up position for easy mounting.
Outboard motor mounting
Proper mounting of the outboard motor will
provide better performance, maximum reli-
ability, and highest customer satisfaction.
This chapter contains the specifications nec-
essary to mount the outboard motor, and may
vary slightly depending on applications.
When mounting the outboard motor, make
sure that there is sufficient clearance for the
outboard motor to fully move to port and star-
board, as well as fully tilt up. See “Dimension”
(3-2).
1. Place the outboard motor on the vertical
centerline of the boat transom. Check
that distance a is equal to distance b
and that distance c is equal to distance
d.
A Hull without strakes
B Hull with strakes
C/L: Centerline of transom
