Engine oil：
Recommended engine oil:SAE10W30 or SAE10W40 four stroke outboard motor
engine oil
CAUTION
There is no the oil in the engine for all
4-stroke outboard motors when delivery
Filling the engine with oil before starting
Don’t start the engine without the oil or oil is not full;
Otherwise, the engine will be damaged. Please check the oil
level before starting the engine

PROPELLER SELECTION
The performance of your outboard motor will be critically affected by
your choice of propeller, as an incorrect choice could adversely affect
performance. The outboard motor is fitted with propellers chosen to
perform well over a range of applications, but there maybe uses where
a propeller with a different pitch would be more appropriate.
For a greater boat load and a low engine speed, a smaller-pitch
propeller is more suitable. Conversely, a large-pitch propeller is more
suitable for a smaller operating load as it enables the correct engine
speed to be maintained.

Outboard motor installation
Mount the outboard motor on the center line (keel line) of the
boat. For boats without a keel or which are asymmetrical,
consult your dealer.
CAUTION
During water testing check the buoyancy of the boat, at rest,
with its maximum load. Check that the static water level on the
exhaust housing is low enough to prevent water entry into the
power head, when water rises due to waves when the outboard is
not running.

WARNING
Overpowering a boat could cause severe instability. Do not install
an outboard motor with more horsepower than the maximum
rating on the capacity plate of the boat. If the boat does not have
a capacity plate, consult the boat manufacturer.
Improper mounting of the outboard motor could result in
hazardous conditions. For permanently mounted models, your
dealer or other person experienced in proper rigging should
mount the motor. If you are mounting the motor yourself,
you should be trained by an experienced person. For portable
models, your dealer or other person experienced in proper
outboard motor mounting should show you how to mount your
motor.
he information presented in this section is intended as reference
only. Proper mounting depends in part on experience and the
specific boat and motor combination.

Mounting height
The mounting height of the
outboard motor greatly affects
your boat running efficiency.
If the mounting height is too
high, cavitation tends to occur,
thus reducing the propulsion.
If the mounting height is too
low, the water resistance will
increase and thereby reduce
engine efficiency.
Mount the outboard motor so
that the anti-cavitation plate is
between the bottom of the boat
and a level 25mm below it
～

Clamping the outboard motor
Tighten the transom clamp screw evenly
and securely.
Occasionally check the clamp screws for
tightness during operation of the outboard
motor because they could become 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.
Make sure the clamp screws are tightened securely.
Occasionally check the screws for tightness during operation.

If the engine restraint cable
attachment is equipped on your
engine, an engine restraint cable
or chain should be used.
Attach to a secure mounting point
on the boat to avoid the engine
being completely lost if it
accidentally falls off the transom.

Breaking in engine
Your new engine requires a period of break-in to allow mating surfaces of
moving parts to wear in evenly.
Caution
Failure to follow the break-in procedure could result in reduced engine life or even
severe engine damage.
1. For the first hour of operation: Run the engine at 2000 r/min or at approximately half
throttle.
2. For the second hour of operation: Run the engine at 3000 r/min or at approximately
three-quarter throttle.
3. For the next eight hours of operation: Avoid continuous operation at full throttle for more
than five minutes at a time.
4. Operate the engine normally.

Engine oil level
Oil level window
1. Put the outboard motor in an upright position (not tilted).
2. Check the oil level using the oil level check window to be sure the level falls between the
upper and lower marks. Fill with oil if it is below the lower mark, or drain to the specified level
if it is above the upper mark.

WARNING
Don’t start the outboards out of the
water as this will damage the
outboards;
Without water

Start the engine
1.Loosen the air vent screw on the fuel tank cap.,2-3 turns.
3.Put the gear shift
lever in neutral

4. Attach the engine stop switch lanyard to secure place on your clothing, or your arm
or leg. Then install the lock plate on the other end of the lanyard into the engine stop
switch.
Stop switch lanyardLock plate
WARNGING
The engine must be started in neutral otherwise
damage to the starter can occur.
Do not attach the lanyard to clothing that could tear
loose.
Do not route the lanyard where it could become
entangled, preventing it from functioning.
Avoid accidentally pulling the lanyard during normal
operation. Loss of engine power means the loss of
steering control.
Also, without engine power, the boat could slow rapidly.
This could cause people and objects in the boat to be
thrown forward.
