ENOM00077-0
Care of your outboard motor
To keep your outboard motor in the best
operating condition, it is very important
that you perform daily and periodic main-
tenance as suggested in the maintenance
schedules that follow.
ENOW00077-0
Your personal safety and that of your
passengers depends on how well you
maintain your outboard motor. Carefully
observe all of the inspection and mainte-
nance procedures described in this sec-
tion.
The maintenance intervals shown in the
checklist apply to an outboard motor in
normal use. If you use your outboard
motor under severe conditions such as
frequent full-throttle operation, frequent
operation in brackish water, or for com-
mercial use, maintenance should be per-
formed at shorter intervals. If in doubt,
consult your dealer for advice.
We strongly recommend that you use
only genuine replacement parts on your
outboard motor. Damage to your out-
board motor arising from the use of
other than genuine parts is not covered
under the warranty.
