 Overpowering a boat could cause se-
vere instability. Do not install an out-
board motor with more horsepower
than the maximum rating on the capaci-
ty plate of the boat. If the boat does not
have a capacity plate, consult the boat
manufacturer.
 Improper mounting of the outboard mo-
tor could result in hazardous conditions
such as poor handling, loss of control,
or fire hazards. For permanently mount-
ed models, your dealer or other person
