16 Operation EMU26901 Installation CAUTION: ECM00110 Incorrect engine height or obstructions to smooth water flow (such as the design or condition of the boat, or accessories such as transom ladders or depth finder transducers) can create airborne water spray while the boat is cruising. Severe engine damage may result if the motor is operated conti[...]

Operation 17 motor greatly affects the water resistance. If the mounting height is too high, cavitation tends to occur, thus reducing the propulsion; and if the propeller tips cut the air, the engine speed will rise abnormally and cause the en- gine to overheat. If the mounting height is too low, the water resistance will increase and thereby reduc[...]

Operation 18 board (if packed). For details, consult your Yamaha dealer. W ARNING EWM00650 Avoid using bolts, nuts or washers other than those contained in the engine pack- aging. If used, they must be of at least the same quality of material and strength and must be tightened securely. After tighten- ing, test run the engine and check their tightn[...]

Operation 19 cool. 4. Third through tenth hours: Avoid operating at full throttle for more than 5 minutes at a time. Let the engine cool between full-throttle runs. Vary en- gine speed occasionally. 5. After the first 10 hours: Operate the engine normally. Use the standard premix ratio of gasoline and oil. For details on mixing fuel and oil, see pa[...]

Operation 20 EMU27402 Gasoline and oil mixing (100:1) If equipped with a portable fuel tank 1. Pour oil into the portable fuel tank, and then add gasoline. 2.

Operation 21 2. If there is a fuel joint on the motor, firmly connect the fuel line to the joint. Then firmly connect the other end of the fuel line to the joint on the fuel tank. 3. If a steering friction adjuster is provided on your outboard motor, securely attach the fuel line to the fuel line clamp. NO TE: During engine operation place the tank[...]

Operation 22 to a secure place on your clothing, or your arm or leg while operating. ● Do not attach the lanyard to clothing that could tear loose. Do not route the lanyard where it could become entan- gled, preventing it from functioning. ● Avoid accidentally pulling the lanyard during normal operation. Loss of en- gine power means the loss of[...]

Operation 23 NO TE: ● When the engine is cold, it needs to be warmed up. For further information, see page 23. ● If the engine does not start on the first try, repeat the procedure. If the engine fails to start after 4 or 5 tries, open the throttle a small amount (between 1/8 and 1/4) and try again. Also if the engine is warm and fails to start[...]

Operation 26 EMU27871 Adjusting trim angle for manual tilt models There are 4 or 5 holes provided in the clamp bracket to adjust the outboard motor trim an- gle. 1. Stop the engine. 2. Remove the trim rod from the clamp bracket while slightly tilting the outboard motor up. 3. Reposition the rod in the desired hole. To raise the bow ( “ trim-out ?[...]

Operation 27 the boat is up about 3 to 5 degrees. With the bow up, the boat may have a greater tenden- cy to steer to one side or the other. Compen- sate for this as you steer. The trim tab can also be adjusted to help offset this effect. When the bow of the boat is down, it is easier to accelerate from a standing start onto plane. Bow Up Too much [...]

Operation 28 will be tilted for more than a few minutes. Otherwise fuel may leak. CAUTION: ECM00230 ● Before tilting the outboard motor, fol- low the procedure under “ Stopping en- gine ” in this chapter. Never tilt the outboard motor while the engine is run- ning. Severe damage from overheating can result. ● Do not tilt up the engine by pu[...]
