Safety informationEMU33623
Outboard motor safetyObserve these precautions at all times.EMU36502
PropellerPeople can be injured or killed if they comein contact with the propeller. The propellercan keep moving even when the motor is inneutral, and sharp edges of the propeller cancut even when stationary. Stop the engine when a person is in the
water near you. Keep people out of reach of the propeller,
even when the engine is off.EMU33631
Rotating partsHands, feet, hair, jewelry, clothing, PFDstraps, etc. can become entangled with inter-nal rotating parts of the engine, resulting inserious injury or death.Keep the top cowling in place whenever pos-sible. Do not remove or replace the cowlingwith the engine running.Only operate the engine with the cowling re-moved according to the specific instructionsin the manual. Keep hands, feet, hair, jewel-ry, clothing, PFD straps, etc. away from anyexposed moving parts.EMU33641
Hot partsDuring and after operation, engine parts arehot enough to cause burns. Avoid touchingany parts under the top cowling until the en-gine has cooled.EMU33651
Electric shockDo not touch any electrical parts while start-ing or operating the engine. They can causeshock or electrocution.EMU34791
Power tiltBody parts can be crushed between the mo-
tor and the clamp bracket when the motor istrimmed or tilted. Keep body parts out of thisarea at all times. Be sure no one is in thisarea before operating the power tilt mecha-nism.The power tilt switches operate even whenthe main switch is off. Keep people be awayfrom the switches whenever working aroundthe motor.Never get under the lower unit while it is tilt-ed, even when the tilt support lever or knobis locked. Severe injury could occur if theoutboard motor accidentally falls.EMU33672
Engine shut-off cord (lanyard)Attach the engine shut-off cord so that theengine stops if the operator falls overboardor leaves the helm. This prevents the boatfrom running away under power and leavingpeople stranded, or running over people orobjects.Always attach the engine shut-off cord to asecure place on your clothing or your arm orleg while operating. Do not remove it to leavethe helm while the boat is moving. Do not at-tach the cord to clothing that could tearloose, or route the cord where it could be-come entangled, preventing it from function-ing.Do not route the cord where it is likely to beaccidentally pulled out. If the cord is pulledduring operation, the engine will shut off andyou will lose most steering control. The boatcould slow rapidly, throwing people and ob-jects forward.EMU33811
GasolineGasoline and its vapors are highly flam-mable and explosive. Always, refuel ac-cording to the procedure on page 37 toreduce the risk of fire and explosion.

EMU33821
Gasoline exposure and spillsTake care not to spill gasoline. If gasolinespills, wipe it up immediately with dry rags.Dispose of rags properly.If any gasoline spills onto your skin, immedi-ately wash with soap and water. Changeclothing if gasoline spills on it.If you swallow gasoline, inhale a lot of gaso-line vapor, or get gasoline in your eyes, getimmediate medical attention. Never siphonfuel by mouth.EMU33901
Carbon monoxideThis product emits exhaust gases which con-tain carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorlessgas which may cause brain damage or deathwhen inhaled. Symptoms include nausea,dizziness, and drowsiness. Keep cockpit andcabin areas well ventilated. Avoid blockingexhaust outlets.EMU33781
ModificationsDo not attempt to modify this outboard mo-tor. Modifications to your outboard motormay reduce safety and reliability, and renderthe outboard unsafe or illegal to use.EMU33741
Boating safetyThis section includes a few of the many im-portant safety precautions that you shouldfollow when boating.EMU33711
Alcohol and drugsNever operate after drinking alcohol or takingdrugs. Intoxication is one of the most com-mon factors contributing to boating fatalities.EMU40281
Personal flotation devices (PFDs)Have an approved PFD on board for everyoccupant. Yamaha recommends that youmust wear a PFD whenever boating. At a
minimum, children and non-swimmersshould always wear PFDs, and everyoneshould wear PFDs when there are potentiallyhazardous boating conditions.EMU33732
People in the waterAlways watch carefully for people in the wa-ter, such as swimmers, skiers, or divers,whenever the engine is running. Whensomeone is in the water near the boat, shiftinto neutral and stop the engine.Stay away from swimming areas. Swimmerscan be hard to see.The propeller can keep moving even whenthe motor is in neutral. Stop the engine whena person is in the water near you.EMU33752
PassengersConsult your boat manufacturer’s instruc-tions for details about appropriate passengerlocations in your boat and be sure all pas-sengers are positioned properly before ac-celerating and when operating above an idlespeed. Standing or sitting in non-designatedlocations may result in being thrown eitheroverboard or within the boat due to waves,wakes, or sudden changes in speed or direc-tion. Even when people are positioned prop-erly, alert your passengers if you must makeany unusual maneuver. Always avoid jump-ing waves or wakes.EMU33762
OverloadingDo not overload the boat. Consult the boatcapacity plate or boat manufacturer for max-imum weight and number of passengers. Besure that weight is properly distributed ac-cording to the boat manufacturer’s instruc-tions. Overloading or incorrect weightdistribution can compromise the boats han-dling and lead to an accident, capsizing orswamping.

EMU33773
Avoid collisionsScan constantly for people, objects, and oth-er boats. Be alert for conditions that limit yourvisibility or block your vision of others.
Operate defensively at safe speeds andkeep a safe distance away from people, ob-jects, and other boats. Do not follow directly behind other boats or
waterskiers. Avoid sharp turns or other maneuvers that
make it hard for others to avoid you or un-derstand where you are going.
Avoid areas with submerged objects orshallow water.
Ride within your limits and avoid aggres-sive maneuvers to reduce the risk of lossof control, ejection, and collision.
Take early action to avoid collisions. Re-member, boats do not have brakes, andstopping the engine or reducing throttlecan reduce the ability to steer. If you arenot sure that you can stop in time beforehitting an obstacle, apply throttle and turnin another direction.
EMU33791
WeatherStay informed about the weather. Checkweather forecasts before boating. Avoidboating in hazardous weather.
EMU33881
Passenger trainingMake sure at least one other passenger istrained to operate the boat in the event of anemergency.EMU33891
Boating safety publicationsBe informed about boating safety. Additionalpublications and information can be obtainedfrom many boating organizations.EMU33601
Laws and regulationsKnow the marine laws and regulations whereyou will be boating- and obey them. Severalsets of rules prevail according to geographiclocation, but all are basically the same as theInternational Rules of the Road.

WARNINGEWM01571
Improper mounting of the outboard mo-tor could result in hazardous condi-tions such as poor handling, loss ofcontrol, or fire hazards.
Because the motor is very heavy, spe-cial equipment and training is requiredto mount it safely.
Your dealer or other person experienced inproper rigging should mount the motor usingcorrect equipment and complete rigging in-structions. For further information, see page29.EMU33582
Remote control requirements
WARNINGEWM01581
If the engine starts in gear, the boat canmove suddenly and unexpectedly, pos-sibly causing a collision or throwingpassengers overboard.
If the engine ever starts in gear, thestart-in-gear protection device is notworking correctly and you should dis-continue using the outboard. Contactyour Yamaha dealer.
The remote control unit must be equippedwith a start-in-gear protection device(s). Thisdevice prevents the engine from starting un-less it is in neutral.

Propeller selectionNext to selecting an outboard motor, select-ing the right propeller is one of the most im-portant purchasing decisions a boater canmake. The type, size, and design of your pro-peller have a direct impact on acceleration,top speed, fuel economy, and even enginelife. Yamaha designs and manufactures pro-pellers for every Yamaha outboard motorand every application.Your outboard motor came with a Yamahapropeller selected to perform well over arange of applications, but there may be useswhere a different propeller would be moreappropriate.Your Yamaha dealer can help you select theright propeller for your boating needs. Selecta propeller that will allow the engine to reachthe middle or upper half of the operatingrange at full throttle with the maximum boat-load. Generally, select a larger pitch propel-ler for a smaller operating load and a smallerpitch propeller for a heavier load. If you carryloads that vary widely, select the propellerthat lets the engine run in the proper rangefor your maximum load but remember thatyou may need to reduce your throttle settingto stay within the recommended enginespeed range when carrying lighter loads.To check the propeller, see page 69.
EMU25771
Start-in-gear protectionYamaha outboard motors or Yamaha-ap-proved remote control units are equippedwith start-in-gear protection device(s). Thisfeature permits the engine to be started onlywhen it is in neutral. Always select neutralbefore starting the engine.EMU41953

Fuel requirementsEMU40202
GasolineUse a good quality gasoline that meets theminimum octane rating. If knocking or ping-ing occurs, use a different brand of gasolineor premium unleaded fuel.
NOTICEECM01982
Do not use leaded gasoline. Leaded
gasoline can seriously damage the en-gine.
Avoid getting water and contaminantsin the fuel tank. Contaminated fuel cancause poor performance or enginedamage. Use only fresh gasoline thathas been stored in clean containers.
GasoholThere are two types of gasohol: gasohol con-taining ethanol (E10) and that containingmethanol. Ethanol can be used if the ethanolcontent does not exceed 10% and the fuelmeets the minimum octane ratings. E85 is afuel containing 85% ethanol and must not beused in your outboard motor. All ethanolblends containing more than 10% ethanolcan cause fuel system damage or cause en-gine starting and running problems. Yamahadoes not recommend gasohol containingmethanol because it can cause fuel systemdamage or engine performance problems.It is recommended that you install a water-separating marine fuel filter assembly (10 mi-cron minimum) between your boat’s fuel tankand outboard motor when using ethanol.Ethanol is known to allow moisture to be ab-sorbed into boat fuel tanks and systems.Moisture in the fuel can cause corrosion ofmetallic fuel system components, startingand running complaints and require addition-al fuel system maintenance.EMU36881
Muddy or acidic waterYamaha strongly recommends that you haveyour dealer install the optional chromium-plated water pump kit if you use the outboardmotor in muddy or acidic water conditions.However, depending on the model it mightnot be required.

InstallationThe information presented in this section isintended as reference only. It is not possibleto provide complete instructions for everypossible boat and motor combination. Propermounting depends in part on experience andthe specific boat and motor combination.
WARNINGEWM01591
Overpowering a boat could cause se-vere instability. Do not install an out-board motor with more horsepowerthan the maximum rating on the capac-ity plate of the boat. If the boat does nothave a capacity plate, consult the boatmanufacturer.
Improper mounting of the outboard mo-tor could result in hazardous condi-tions such as poor handling, loss ofcontrol, or fire hazards. For permanent-ly mounted models, your dealer or oth-er person experienced in proper riggingshould mount the motor.

Mounting the outboard motor1. Be sure to mount the outboard motor
while the boat is on land. If the boat is onthe water, move it to an area on land.

EMU26926
Mounting heightTo run your boat at optimum efficiency, thewater resistance (drag) of the boat and out-board motor must be made as little as possi-ble. The mounting height of the outboardmotor greatly affects the water resistance. Ifthe mounting height is too high, cavitationtends to occur, thus reducing the propulsion;and if the propeller tips cut the air, the enginespeed will rise abnormally and cause the en-gine to overheat. If the mounting height is toolow, the water resistance will increase andthereby reduce engine efficiency. Mount theoutboard motor so that the anti-cavitationplate is between the bottom of the boat anda level 25 mm (1 in) below it.
NOTICEECM01635
Make sure that the idle hole is highenough to prevent water from enteringthe engine even if the boat is stationarywith the maximum load.
Incorrect engine height or obstructionsto the smooth flow of water (such as thedesign or condition of the boat, or ac-cessories, such as transom ladders ordepth finder transducers) can createairborne water spray while the boat iscruising. If the outboard motor is oper-ated continuously in the presence ofairborne water spray, enough watercould enter the engine through the airintake opening in the top cowling tocause severe engine damage. Removethe cause of the airborne water spray.
TIP: The optimum mounting height of the out-

Clamping the outboard motor1. Place the outboard motor on the tran-
som so that it is positioned as close tothe center as possible. Tighten the tran-som clamp screws evenly and securely.Occasionally check the clamp screws fortightness during operation of the out-board motor because they could be-come loose due to engine vibration.WARNING! Loose clamp screwscould allow the outboard motor to falloff or move on the transom. Thiscould cause loss of control and seri-ous injury. Make sure the clampscrews are tightened securely. Occa-sionally check the screws for tight-ness during operation. [EWM00643]
2. If the restraint cable attachment isequipped on your engine, a restraint ca-ble or chain should be used. Attach oneend to the restraint cable attachmentand the other to a secure mounting pointon the boat. Otherwise the engine couldbe completely lost if it accidentally fallsoff the transom.
3. Secure the clamp bracket to the transomusing the bolts provided with the out-board (if packed). For details, consultyour Yamaha dealer. WARNING! Avoidusing bolts, nuts or washers otherthan those contained in the enginepackaging. If used, they must be of atleast the same quality of material andstrength and must be tightened se-curely. After tightening, test run theengine and check their tightness.[EWM00652]

Breaking in engineYour new engine requires a period of break-in to allow mating surfaces of moving parts towear in evenly. Correct break-in will help en-sure proper performance and longer enginelife. NOTICE: Failure to follow the break-in
procedure could result in reduced enginelife or even severe engine damage. [ECM00802]
EMU27086
Procedure for 4-stroke modelsYour new engine requires a period of 10hours break-in to allow mating surfaces ofmoving parts to wear in evenly.
TIP:Run the engine in the water, under load (ingear with a propeller installed) as follows.For 10 hours for breaking in engine avoid ex-tended idling, rough water and crowded ar-eas.1. For the first hour of operation:
Run the engine at varying speeds up to2000 r/min or approximately half throttle.
2. For the second hour of operation:Increase engine speed as much as nec-essary to put the boat on plane (butavoid full-throttle operation), then backoff on the throttle while keeping the boatat a planing speed.
3. Remaining 8 hours:Run the engine at any speed. However,avoid operating at full throttle for morethan 5 minutes at a time.
4. After the first 10 hours:Operate the engine normally.

Adjusting boat trimWhen the boat is on plane, a bow-up attituderesults in less drag, greater stability and effi-ciency. This is generally when the keel line ofthe boat is up about 3 to 5 degrees. With thebow up, the boat may have a greater tenden-cy to steer to one side or the other. Compen-sate for this as you steer. When the bow ofthe boat is down, it is easier to acceleratefrom a standing start onto plane.
Bow UpToo much trim-out puts the bow of the boattoo high in the water. Performance and econ-omy are decreased because the hull of theboat is pushing the water and there is moreair drag. Excessive trim-out can also causethe propeller to ventilate, which reduces per-formance further, and the boat may “por-poise” (hop in the water), which could throwthe operator and passengers overboard.

Bow DownToo much trim-in causes the boat to “plow”through the water, decreasing fuel economyand making it hard to increase speed. Oper-ating with excessive trim-in at higher speedsalso makes the boat unstable. Resistance atthe bow is greatly increased, heightening thedanger of “bow steering” and making opera-tion difficult and dangerous.
TIP:Depending on the type of boat, the outboardmotor trim angle may have little effect on thetrim of the boat when operating.EMU27936
Tilting up and downIf the engine will be stopped for some time orif the boat is moored in shallows, the out-board motor should be tilted up to protect thepropeller and lower casing from damage bycollision with obstructions, and also to re-duce salt corrosion.
WARNINGEWM00223
Make sure that no one is near the out-board motor when tilting the outboardmotor up or down. Otherwise, body partscould be crushed between the outboardmotor and the clamp bracket.
WARNINGEWM00251
Leaking fuel is a fire hazard. If there is afuel joint on the outboard motor, discon-nect the fuel line or close the fuel cock ifthe engine will be tilted for more than afew minutes. Otherwise fuel may leak.

Cleaning and adjusting spark plugThe spark plug is an important engine com-ponent and is easy to inspect. The conditionof the spark plug can indicate somethingabout the condition of the engine. For exam-ple, if the center electrode porcelain is verywhite, this could indicate an intake air leak orcarburetion problem in that cylinder. Do notattempt to diagnose any problems yourself.Instead, take the outboard motor to a
Yamaha dealer. You should periodically re-move and inspect the spark plug becauseheat and deposits will cause the spark plugto slowly break down and erode.1. Remove the spark plug caps from the
spark plugs.2. Remove the spark plug. If electrode ero-
sion becomes excessive, or if carbonand other deposits are excessive, youshould replace the spark plug with an-other of the correct type. WARNING!

When removing or installing a sparkplug, be careful not to damage the in-sulator. A damaged insulator couldallow external sparks, which couldlead to explosion or fire. [EWM00562]
3. Be sure to use the specified spark plug,otherwise the engine may not operateproperly. Before fitting the spark plug,measure the electrode gap with a wirethickness gauge; replace it if out of spec-ification.
4. When fitting the plug, wipe off any dirtfrom the threads, and then screw it in tothe correct torque.
TIP:If a torque-wrench is not available when youare reinstalling a spark plug, a good estimateof the correct torque is 1/12 turn past finger-
tight. When you are installing a new sparkplug, a good estimate of the correct torque is1/2 turn past finger-tight.EMU37451
