THE IMPORTANCE OF PROPER SERVICING
The service information contained in this manual is intended for use by qualified, professional technicians. Attempting
service without the proper training, tools, and equipment could cause injury to you and/or others. It could also damage
the Outboard Motor or create an unsafe condition.
This manual describes the proper methods and procedures for performing service. Any person who intends to use
service procedure, or a tool that is not recommended by Honda, must determine the risks to their personal safety and
the safe operation of the Outboard Motor.
For Your Customer’s Safety
Proper service is essential to the customer’s safety and the reliability of the outboard motor. Any error or oversight
while servicing an Outboard Motor can result in faulty operation, damage to the outboard motor, or injury to others.
For Your Safety
Because this manual is intended for the professional service technician, we do not provide warnings about many basic
shop safety practices (e.g., Sharp edges-wear gloves). If you have not received shop safety training or do not feel
confident about your knowledge of safe servicing practice, we recommend that you do not attempt to perform the
procedures described in this manual.
Some of the most important general service safety precautions are given below. However, we cannot warn you of
every conceivable hazard that can arise in performing service procedures. Only you can decide whether or not you
should perform a given task.
IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Make sure you have a clear understanding of all basic shop safety practices and that you are wearing appropriate
clothing and using safety equipment. When performing any service task, be especially careful of the following:
• Read all of the instructions before you begin, and make sure you have the tools and the skills required to perform
the tasks safely and completely.
• Protect your eyes by using proper safety glasses, goggles, or face shields anytime you hammer, drill, grind, or work
around pressurized air or liquids, and springs or other stored-energy components. If there is any doubt, put on eye
protection.
• Use other protective wear when necessary, for example gloves or safety shoes. Handling hot or sharp parts can
cause severe burns or cuts. Before you grab something that looks like it can hurt you, stop and put on gloves.
• Protect yourself and others whenever you have engine-power equipment up in the air.
Make sure the engine is off before you begin any servicing procedures, unless the instruction tells you to do otherwise.
This will help eliminate several potential hazards:
• Carbon monoxide poisoning from engine exhaust. Be sure there is adequate ventilation whenever you run the
engine.
• Burns from hot parts. Let the engine and exhaust system cool before working in those areas.
• Injury from moving parts. If the instruction tells you to run the engine, be sure your hands, fingers and clothing are
out of the way.
Gasoline vapors and hydrogen gasses from battery are explosive. To reduce the possibility of a fire or explosion, be
careful when working around gasoline or batteries.
• Use only a nonflammable solvent, not gasoline, to clean parts.
• Never drain or store gasoline in an open container.
• Keep all cigarettes, sparks, and flames away from the battery and all fuel-related parts.
Improper service can create an unsafe
condition that can cause your customer or
others to be seriously hurt or killed.
Follow the procedures and precautions in this
manual and other service materials carefully.
Failure to properly follow instructions and
precautions can cause you to be seriously
hurt or killed.
Follow the procedures and precautions in this
manual carefully.

MOTOR INSTALLATION
MOTOR SELECTION
Secure and correct installation is essential for safe boating and good
performance. Follow the installation instructions provided in this
manual.
Before installation, check to be sure that the outboard motor does
not exceed the recommended maximum horsepower for the boat on
which it is to be installed.
Refer to the boat’s certification plate for recommended maximum
horsepower. For most applications, the outboard motor should
provide 80% of the recommended maximum horsepower for the
boat. If the certification plate information is not available, contact the
boat dealer or manufacturer.
Refer to the following dimensional drawings to be sure there is
nothing on the boat that will interfere with outboard motor tilt up and
steering.
The BF175A, BF200A, BF225A and BF250A outboard motors are
designed to be installed on boat transom with the following transom
board thickness.
General Guidelines
Install the outboard motor on the center (1) of the boat transom (2)
securely and be sure that the boat is will-balanced.
Improper set-up or pre-deliver service can
cause an unsafe condition that can cause
your customer to be seriously hurt or killed.
Follow the procedures and precautions in this
manual and shop manual carefully.

As a general rule, the outboard should be installed so the anti-
ventilation plate (1) is parallel to the boat bottom.
If the board transom angle (2) is less than 8°, the BF175A, BF200A,
BF225A and BF250A anti-ventilation plate will not be parallel to the
boat bottom when trimmed to the lowest hole.
Dual outboard motors must be installed so that the outboard motor
center-to-center distance is a minimum of 660 mm (26 in) (1).

BOAT TRANSOM CENTER LINE
Measure across the transom to determine the transom center line
and draw a vertical line. On a "V" bottom boat, the vertical line
should pass through the keel.
Use a pencil and tape (1) measure to locate center line.
Put one end of the tape measure on a chine and place the other end
on the upper edge of the transom, somewhere past the "visual"
center. Place a mark (2) on the transom and record the distance
measured.
Use a pencil and tape (1) measure the same distance from the
opposite chine and make a mark (2).
Measure the distance between the two marks and place a third mark
halfway between them. The line connecting the third mark with the
keel is the center line.
If dual outboard motors are to be installed, mark transom at a
minimum of 330 mm (13 in) from center line (1).
Before drilling the holes for installation of the outboard motors, set
the outboard motors on the respective center lines and check
whether the boat is well-balanced. If a boat is out of balance, adjust
by sliding the outboard motor to the adequate position.

INSTALLATION HEIGHT CHECK
Optimum outboard motor installation height varies with boat type
and bottom shape. Contact the boat manufacture for any special
recommendations that are unique to a specific model of boat.
• If the outboard motor is installed too low
– The boat will squat and be hard to plane.
– The boat high-speed stability will be reduced.
– The boat will tend to porpoise.
• If the outboard motor is installed too high
– Cavitation may occur when making a turn, which prevents the
boat from smooth cruising.
Measure the boat transom height (1).
On "V" bottom boats, measure the transom height which is the
distance from the top edge of the boat transom to the point at which
the vertical line passing the inner edge of the anti-ventilation plate
intersects with the boat bottom.
Calculate the outboard shaft length requirement. Match the
appropriate outboard shaft length to your boat transom height.
To determine outboard shaft length requirement, subtract the motor
transom height and the boat transom height/ the difference should
be approximately 0 – 25 mm (0 – 1 in) which is the installation height
range (3).

When mounting dual outboard motors on "V" bottom boats, the
outboard installation height range is 0 – 25 mm (0 – 1 in (1)).
If the outboard installation height cannot be achieved, adjust boat
transom height.
BOAT TRANSOM HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
If the installation height is too low, or needs to be modified to a
accommodate the width of the outboard motor(s), contact the boat’s
manufacturer and follow their recommendations for corrective
action.
If mounting two outboard motors, be sure the installation height is
identical for both.
Some boat manufacturer’s may require different mounting height.
Consult your boat manufacturer for specifics on your boat.
TRANSOM DRILLING
Verify no damage will occur when the motor mounting holes are
drilled. Lock for any structural impediments such as bulkheads,
braces, fuel cells, bilge pumps, or floor sections before drilling.
Ensure there is adequate space for the bolt, washer, and transom
support plate (if applicable), to bear on a flat surface.
Wear safety glasses and drill four 1/2-inch holes in the transom.
Drill upper holes at least 25 mm (1 in) below transom top edge.
Drill the lower holes in the positions where the top edge of the long
hole in the stern bracket comes in contact with the bolt.
Mark the center point of the 10 drilling holes (i.e. 5 holes at the right
and left sides of the transom respectively that are in the symmetrical
position with regard to the center line of the outboard installation
line).
Using a 3 – 5 mm (0.1 – 0.2 in) diameter drill, drill the pilot holes at
the marked points at right angles with the boat transom surface.
Then, drill the holes using the 13.5 mm (0.53 in) diameter drill.
With the outboard motor resting on the boat transom, verify the
correct motor height. The outboard motor can be raised by using a
lower set of mounting holes.
Use vacuum cleaner to clean up after drilling.

BOLTING MOTOR TO TRANSOM
With motor resting on the boat transom, verify correct motor height.
Motor can be raised by using a lower set of mounting holes.
Apply silicone sealant or equivalent to the mounting bolt holes from
both side as shown. Secure the motor by installing the bolts from the
motor side. Tighten the HEX nuts. The bolts must have the sufficient
thread length to tighten down and have at least two or three threads
past the end of the HEX nut.
If the molding of the transom upper edge interferes with the
outboard stern bracket, add the plate or reconditioning the bump
and install the outboard stern bracket to the boat transom securely.
Using an air impact tool to tighten or loosen the transom bolts can
generate enough heat to damage the bolt threads. The air impact
tool can also produce enough tightening torque to damage the boat
transom.

motor side. Tighten the HEX nuts. The bolts must have the sufficient
thread length to tighten down and have at least two or three threads
past the end of the HEX nut.
If the molding of the transom upper edge interferes with the
outboard stern bracket, add the plate or reconditioning the bump
and install the outboard stern bracket to the boat transom securely.
Using an air impact tool to tighten or loosen the transom bolts can
generate enough heat to damage the bolt threads. The air impact
tool can also produce enough tightening torque to damage the boat
transom.
