8 GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION ENOM00007-0 NOTICE: DANGER/WARNING/CAUTION/Note Before installing, operating or otherwise handling your outboard motor, be sure to thoroughly read and understand this Owner’s Manual and carefully follow all of the instructions. Of particular importance is information preceded by the words “DANGER,” “WARNING,” “CAUTION,” and “Note.” Always pay special attention to such information to ensure safe operation of the outboard motor at all times. ENOW00001-0 Failure to observe will result in severe personal injury or death, and possibly property damage. ENOW00002-0 Failure to observe could result in severe personal injury or death, or property damage. ENOW00003-0 Failure to observe could result in personal injury or property damage. ENON00001-0 Note This instruction provides special information to facilitate the use or maintenance of the outboard motor or to clarify important points. ENOM0008-0 EMERGENCY STOP SWITCH The Emergency Stop Switch will stall the outboard motor when the stop switch tether is pulled off. This stop switch tether can be attached to the operator of the outboard motor to minimize or prevent injuries from the propeller in case the operator falls overboard. We highly recommend use of the Emergency Stop Switch tether. ENOW00004-0 Accidental activation of the Emergency Stop Switch (such as the tether being pulled out in heavy seas) could cause passengers to lose their balance and even fall overboard, or it could result in loss of power in heavy seas, strong currents, or high winds. Loss of control while mooring is another potential hazard. To minimize accidental activation of the Emergency Stop Switch, the 500 mm (20 inch.) stop switch tether is coiled and can extended to a full 1300 mm (51 inch.). DANGER WARNING CAUTION WARNING

GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION 9 ENOM00009-0 SAFE OPERATION OF BOAT As the operator/driver of the boat, you are responsible for the safety of those aboard and those in other boat around yours, and for following local boating regulations. You should be thoroughly knowledgeable on how to correctly operate the boat, outboard motor, and accessories. To learn about the correct operation and maintenance of the outboard motor, please read through this manual carefully. It is very difficult for a person standing or floating in the water to take evasive action should he or she see a power boat heading in his/her direction, even at a slow speed. Therefore, when your boat is in the immediate vicinity of people in the water, the outboard motor should be shifted to neutral and shut off. ENOW00005-0 SERIOUS INJURY IS LIKELY IF A PERSON IN THE WATER MAKES CONTACT WITH A MOV- ING BOAT, GEAR HOUSING, PROPELLER, OR ANY SOLID DEVICE RIGIDLY ATTACHED TO A BOAT OR GEAR HOUSING. ENOM00010-0 SERVICING, REPLACEMENT PARTS & LUBRICANTS We recommend that only an authorized service shop perform service or maintenance on this outboard motor. Be sure to use genuine parts, genuine lubricants, or recommended lubricants. ENOM00011-0 MAINTENANCE As the owner of this outboard motor, you should be acquainted with correct maintenance procedures. It is the operator’s responsibility to perform all safety checks and to ensure that all lubrication and maintenance instructions are complied with for safe operation. Please comply with all instructions concerning lubrication and maintenance. You should take the engine to an authorized dealer or service shop for periodic inspection at the pre- scribed intervals. Correct periodic maintenance and proper care of this outboard motor will reduce the chance of problems and limit overall operating expenses. ENOM00012-0 MOUNTING Outboard motor mounting must be performed by trained service person(s) using lift or hoist with sufficient capacity. WARNING
