Ventilation
• Gasoline vapor and exhaust gas are
heavier than air and extremely poisonous.
If gasoline vapor or exhaust gas is inhaled
in large quantities, it may cause loss of con-
sciousness and death within a short time.
• When test running an engine indoors (for
example, in a water tank) make sure to do
so where adequate ventilation can be main-
tained.
Self-protection
• Protect your eyes by wearing safety
glasses or safety goggles during all opera-
tions involving drilling and grinding, or when
using an air compressor.
• Protect your hands and feet by wearing
protective gloves and safety shoes when
necessary.
Working with crane
• When moving the watercraft, or when lifting
the engine during removal or installation,
make sure to use a crane with a lifting
capacity that is equal to or more than the
weight of the watercraft or engine respec-
tively.
• When lifting the watercraft, use the water-
craft lift harness and make sure that the
watercraft is in a stable position when mov-
ing it.
• Use the wire ropes of adequate strength,
and lift up the engine unit using the three
point suspension. If the engine unit does
not have three or more points to be sus-
pended, support it using additional ropes or
the like so that the engine unit can be lifted
and carried in a stable manner.
