Avoid boating in hazardous weather. ● Tell someone where you are going: leave a Float Plan with a responsible person. Be sure to cancel the Float Plan when you return. ● Use common sense and good judgment when boating. Know your abilities, and be sure you understand how your boat handles under the different boating conditions you may encounter.
General information propeller with this engine. Counterclockwise propellers are marked with a letter “L” after the size indication. The wrong type of propeller could cause the boat to go in an unexpected direction, which could lead to an accident.

General information way; it is called the “stand-on” vessel. The vessel which does not have the right-of-way is called the “give-way” or “burdened” vessel. These rules determine which vessel has the right-of-way, and what each vessel should do. Stand-on vessel The vessel with the right-of-way has the duty to continue its course and speed, except to avoid an immediate collision. When you maintain your direction and speed, the other vessel will be able to determine how best to avoid you.
General information EMU25530 Other special situations Crossing When two power driven vessels are crossing each other’s path close enough to run the risk of collision, the vessel which has the other on the starboard (right) side must keep out of the way of the other. If the other vessel is on your right, you must keep out of its way; you are the Give-Way vessel.
General information Reading buoys and other markers The waters of the United states are marked for safe navigation by the lateral system of buoyage. Simply put, buoys and markers have an arrangement of shapes, colors, numbers and lights to show which side of the buoy a boater should pass on when navigating in a particular direction. The markings on these buoys are oriented from the perspective of being entered from seaward (the boater is going towards the port).

Stop engine before refueling. Refuel in a well-ventilated area. Refuel portable fuel tanks off the boat. Take care not to spill gasoline.
General information ● ● ● ● ● dry rags. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Tighten the filler cap securely after refueling. If you should swallow some gasoline, inhale a lot of gasoline vapor, or get gasoline in your eyes, get immediate medical attention. If any gasoline spills onto your skin, immediately wash with soap and water. Change clothing if gasoline spills on it. Touch the fuel nozzle to the filler opening or funnel to help prevent electrostatic sparks.

Operation EMU26901 Installation ECM00110 CAUTION: Incorrect engine height or obstructions to smooth water flow (such as the design or condition of the boat, or accessories such as transom ladders or depth finder transducers) can create airborne water spray while the boat is cruising. Severe engine damage may result if the motor is operated continuously in the presence of airborne water spray. NOTE: During water testing check the buoyancy of the boat, at rest, with its maximum load.
Operation ● board motor is affected by the boat/motor combination and the desired use. Test runs at different heights can help determine the optimum mounting height. Consult your Yamaha dealer or boat manufacturer for further information on determining the proper mounting height. For instructions on setting the trim angle of the outboard motor, see page 40. EMU27041 Breaking in engine 1.
Operation quarter throttle or less to let the engine cool. Third through tenth hours: Avoid operating at full throttle for more than 5 minutes at a time. Let the engine cool between full-throttle runs. Vary engine speed occasionally. After the first 10 hours: Operate the engine normally. 4. 5. EMU27101 Preoperation checks EWM00080 WARNING If any item in the preoperation check is not working properly, have it inspected and repaired before operating the outboard motor. Otherwise an accident could occur.
Operation EMU27130 Controls ● ● ● ● Check throttle, shift, and steering for proper operation before starting the engine. The controls should work smoothly, without binding or unusual free play. Look for loose or damaged connections. Check operation of the starter and stop switches when the outboard motor is in the water. ● of storage. Otherwise engine seizure could occur. Use straight gasoline only. If premix fuel is used, the fuel injector could be damaged.
Operation While many additives available may reduce deposits, Yamaha recommends the use of Ring Free Fuel Additive, available from your Yamaha dealer. Ring Free Fuel Additive has repeatedly proven its ability to clean combustion deposits from inside the engine, notably the critical piston-ring-land area, and fuel system components. Follow product labeling for use instructions. EMU27291 Filling oil for oil injection models EWM00530 WARNING Do not add gasoline into the oil tank.
Operation cate the amount of additional oil that can be added to the tank.

EWM00120 WARNING ● ● ● Attach the engine stop switch lanyard to a secure place on your clothing, or your arm or leg while operating. 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.
Operation NOTE: ● ● When the engine is cold, it needs to be warmed up. For further information, see page 38. If the engine is warm and fails to start, open the throttle slightly and try to start the engine again. If the engine still fails to start, see page 68. ZMU01882 EMU27670 Warming up engine EMU27701 EMU27740 Shifting Electric start and prime start models 1. 2. After starting the engine, allow it to idle for 3 minutes to warm up. Failure to do so will shorten engine life.

Operation ● angle can cause loss of control. Use the power tilt switch located on the bottom engine cowling (if equipped) only when the boat is at a complete stop with the engine off. 1 Adjust the outboard motor trim angle using the power trim and tilt switch. UP DN ZMU04615 1. Power trim and tilt switch To raise the bow (trim-out), press the switch “ ” (up). To lower the bow (trim-in), press the switch “ ” (down).
Operation Bow Up Too much trim-out puts the bow of the boat too high in the water. Performance and economy are decreased because the hull of the boat is pushing the water and there is more air drag. Excessive trim-out can also cause the propeller to ventilate, which reduces performance further, and the boat may “porpoise” (hop in the water), which could throw the operator and passengers overboard.
Operation ● on page 39. Never tilt the outboard motor while the engine is running. Severe damage from overheating can result. Do not tilt up the engine by pushing the tiller handle (if equipped) because this could break the handle. EMU28005 Procedure for tilting up Power trim and tilt models / power tilt models 1.
