CLAMPING THE OUTBOARD MOTOR
1) Place the outboard on the transom so
that it is positioned as close to the center
as possible. Tighten the transom clamp
screws evenly and securely. Check the
clamp-screws for tightness occasionally
during operation of the motor as they
can work loose due to engine vibration.
w
Loose clamp screws could allow the
motor to move on the transom or fall off
the transom. This could cause loss of
control and serious injury. Make sure the
transom screws are tightened securely.
Occasionally check the screws for tight-
ness during operation.
2) An engine restraint cable or chain
409011
should be used. Attach one end to the
engine restraint cable attachment point
and the other to a secure mounting point
on the boat. Otherwise, the engine could
be completely lost if it accidentally falls
off the transom.
Secure the clamp bracket to the transom
with the bolts provided with the out-
board. For details, consult your dealer.

Avoid using bolts, nuts or washers other
than those contained in the engine pack-
aging. If used, they must be of at least the
same quality of material and strength and
must be tightened securely. After tighten-
ing, test run the engine and check their
tightness.
