WARNING
Before operation, the outboard must be correctly installed with the required mounting hardware as
shown. Failure to correctly fasten outboard could result in outboard ejecting off boat transom causing
serious injury, death, or property damage.
IMPORTANT: For optimum boat performance and detailed engine installation instructions, refer to the
outboard installation manual, supplied with the outboard.
We strongly recommend that your dealer install your outboard and related accessories to ensure proper
installation and good performance. If you install the outboard yourself, follow instructions in the Outboard
Installation Manual which is provided with the outboard.
The outboard must be secured to the boat transom with the four 12.7 mm (1/2 in.) diameter mounting
bolts, locknuts and washers provided. Install two bolts through the upper set of mounting holes and two
bolts through the lower set of mounting slots.
