Other uses can result in injury to the operator or damage to the outboard motor and other property. Most injuries or property damage can be prevented if you follow all instructions in this manual and on the outboard motor.
11/03/17 10:33:20 31ZY2630_009 OUTBOARD MOTOR SAFETY Refuel With Care Gasoline is extremely flammable, and gasoline vapor can explode. Refuel outdoors, in a wellventilated area, with the engine stopped. Never smoke near gasoline, and keep other flames and sparks away. Refuel carefully to avoid spilling fuel. Avoid overfilling the fuel tank. After refueling, tighten the fuel tank cap securely. If any fuel is spilled, make sure the area is dry before starting the engine.
