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.EMU40272
Rotating partsHands, feet, hair, jewelry, clothing, personalflotation device (PFD) straps, etc., can be-come entangled with internal rotating parts ofthe engine, resulting in serious injury ordeath.Keep the top cowling in place whenever pos-sible. Do not remove or replace the top cowl-ing with the engine running.Only operate the engine with the top cowlingremoved according to the specific instruc-tions in the manual. Keep hands, feet, hair,jewelry, clothing, PFD straps, etc., awayfrom any exposed 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.
EMU33662
Power trim and 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 trim and tiltmechanism.The power trim and tilt switches operateeven when the main switch is off. Keep peo-ple away from the switches whenever work-ing around the motor.Never get under the lower unit while it is tilt-ed, even when the tilt support lever is locked.Severe injury could occur if the outboard mo-tor 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 59 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.EMU33742
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 every
occupant. Yamaha recommends that youmust wear a PFD whenever boating. At aminimum, 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.EMU33763
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 boat’s 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.
EMU48100
Collisions with floating or submerged objectsIf the outboard motor hits a floating object or
an obstacle in the water while cruising, thefollowing could occur: The passengers and any loose equipment
or luggage could be thrown forward due tothe sudden deceleration.
Parts of the outboard motor could comeloose as a result of the impact and couldbe thrown into the boat.
The boat or outboard motor could be dam-aged as a result of the impact.
When you operate the boat in an area wherethere might be floating objects or obstaclesin the water, be sure to adjust the trim angleof the outboard motor, slow down, and oper-ate carefully. For further information, seepage 74.If the outboard motor hits a floating object oran obstacle in the water, make sure thatthere are no abnormalities with the boat andthe outboard motor. If anything abnormal isfound, return to the nearest harbor at lowspeed and have a Yamaha dealer inspectthe outboard motor.

weather forecasts before boating. Avoidboating in hazardous weather.EMU44161
Accident reportingBoat operators are required by law to file aBoating Accident Report with their boatinglaw enforcement agency if their boat is in-volved in any of the following accidents:1. There is loss of life or probable loss of
life.2. There is personal injury that requires
medical attention beyond first aid.3. There is property damage to boats or
other property over a certain amount.4. There is complete loss of a boat.Contact local law enforcement personnel if areport is necessary.EMU44172
Boat education and trainingFor U.S.A.Operators should take a boating safetycourse. This may be required in your state.Many of the organizations listed in the nextsection can provide information about cours-es in your area.You may also want to consider an Internet-based program for basic boater education.The Online Boating Safety Course providedby the BoatU.S. Foundation, is approved bythe National Association of State BoatingLaw Administrators (NASBLA) and recog-nized by the United States Coast Guard.Most, but not all, states accept this course tomeet their minimum requirements. While itcannot replace an in-depth course such asone offered by the U.S. Coast Guard, U.S.Power Squadron, or other organization, thisonline course does provide a general over-view of the basics in boating safety, require-ments, navigation, and operation. Uponsuccessful completion of the course, theuser can download a certificate of comple-
tion immediately or, for a small charge, re-quest one by mail. To take this free course,go to boatus.org.For CanadaAll operators of pleasure craft must illustratecompetency by means of a Pleasure CraftOperators Card with the exception of Per-sonal Water Craft used for rental purposeswhich require a rental checklist be complet-ed. Pleasure Craft Operators Cards can beobtained following the completion of a com-petency course, with an online option. De-tails can be found on Transport Canada’swebsite. www.tc.gc.caEMU33881
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.EMU33592
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. The rulespresented in the following section are con-densed—and have been provided for yourconvenience only.Contact the U.S. Coast Guard, the NationalAssociation of State Boating Law Adminis-trators, or your local Power Squadron for acomplete set of rules governing the waters inwhich you will be using your boat.EMU44741

Basic boating rules (Rules of the road)
Just as there are rules that apply when youare driving on streets and highways, thereare waterway rules that apply when you aredriving your boat. These rules are used inter-nationally. (For U.S.A.: and are also en-forced by the United States Coast Guard andlocal agencies.) You should be aware ofthese rules, and follow them whenever youencounter another vessel on the water.EMU33702
Steering and sailing rules and sound signalsWhenever two vessels on the water meetone another, one vessel has the right-of-way; it is called the “stand-on” vessel. Thevessel that does not have the right-of-way iscalled the “give-way” or “burdened” vessel.These rules determine which vessel has theright-of-way, and what each vessel shoulddo.
Stand-on vesselThe vessel with the right-of-way has the duty
6C1-9-3K-1E0.book 5 ページ 2018年12月4日 火曜日 午後4時38分

Safety information
6
to continue its course and speed, except toavoid an immediate collision. When youmaintain your direction and speed, the othervessel will be able to determine how best toavoid you.
Give-way vesselThe vessel that does not have the right-of-way has the duty to take positive and timelyaction to stay out of the way of the Stand-Onvessel. Normally, you should not cross infront of the vessel with the right-of-way. Youshould slow down or change directions brief-ly and pass behind the other vessel. Youshould always move in such a way that theoperator of the other vessel can see whatyou are doing.“The general prudential rule”This rule is called Rule 2 in the InternationalRules and says,“In obeying and construing these rules dueregard shall be had to all dangers of naviga-tion and collision, and to any special circum-stances, which may render a departure fromthe above rules necessary in order to avoidimmediate danger.”In other words, follow the standard rules ex-cept when a collision will occur unless bothvessels try to avoid each other. If that is thecase, both vessels become “Give-Way” ves-sels.EMU25524
Rules when encountering vesselsThere are three main situations that you mayencounter with other vessels which couldlead to a collision unless the Steering Rulesare followed:Meeting: (you are approaching another ves-sel head-on)Crossing: (you are traveling across the oth-er vessel’s path)Overtaking: (you are passing or being
passed by another vessel)In the following illustration, your boat is in thecenter. You should give the right-of-way toany vessels shown in white area (you are theGive-Way vessel). Any vessels in the shad-ed area must yield to you (they are the Give-Way vessels). Both you and the meetingvessel must alter course to avoid each other.
MeetingIf you are meeting another power vesselhead-on, and are close enough to run therisk of collision, neither of you has the right-of-way. Both of you should alter course toavoid an accident. You should keep the othervessel on your port (left) side. This ruledoesn’t apply if both of you will clear one an-other if you continue on your set course andspeed.
CrossingWhen two power driven vessels are crossingeach other’s path close enough to run the
6C1-9-3K-1E0.book 6 ページ 2018年12月4日 火曜日 午後4時38分

Safety information
7
risk of collision, the vessel which has the oth-er on the starboard (right) side must keep outof the way of the other. If the other vessel ison your right, you must keep out of its way;you are the Give-Way vessel. If the othervessel is on your port (left) side, rememberthat you should maintain course and direc-tion, provided the other vessel gives you theright-of-way as it should.
OvertakingIf you are passing another vessel, you arethe “Give-Way” vessel. This means that theother vessel is expected to maintain itscourse and speed. You must stay out of itsway until you are clear of it. Likewise, if an-other vessel is passing you, you shouldmaintain your speed and direction so that theother vessel can steer itself around you.EMU25532
Other special situationsThere are three other rules you should beaware of when driving your boat around oth-er vessels.Narrow channels and bendsWhen navigating in narrow channels, youshould keep to the right when it is safe andpractical to do so. If the operator of a power-driven vessel is preparing to go around abend that may obstruct the view of other wa-ter vessels, the operator should sound a pro-longed blast on the whistle (4 to 6 seconds).
If another vessel is around the bend, it tooshould sound the whistle. Even if no reply isheard, however, the vessel should still pro-ceed around the bend with caution. If younavigate such waters with your boat, you willneed to carry a portable air horn, availablefrom local marine supply stores.Fishing vessel right-of-wayAll vessels that are fishing with nets, lines ortrawls are considered to be “fishing vessels”under the International Rules. Vessels withtrolling lines are not considered fishing ves-sels. Fishing vessels have the right-of-wayregardless of position. Fishing vessels can-not, however, impede the passage of othervessels in narrow channels.Sailing vessel right-of-waySailing vessels should normally be given theright-of-way. The exceptions to this are:1. When the sailing vessel is overtaking the
power-driven vessel, the power-drivenvessel has the right-of-way.
2. Sailing vessels should keep clear of anyfishing vessel.
3. In a narrow channel, a sailing vesselshould not hamper the safe passage ofa power-driven vessel that can navigateonly in such a channel.
Reading buoys and other markersThe waters of the United States are markedfor safe navigation by the lateral system ofbuoyage. Simply put, buoys and markershave an arrangement of shapes, colors,numbers and lights to show which side of thebuoy a boater should pass on when navigat-ing in a particular direction. The markings onthese buoys are oriented from the perspec-tive of being entered from seaward (the boat-er is going towards the port). This means thatred buoys are passed on the starboard(right) side when proceeding from open wa-
6C1-9-3K-1E0.book 7 ページ 2018年12月4日 火曜日 午後4時38分

8
ter into port, and black buoys are to port (left)side. When navigating out of port, your posi-tion with respect to the buoys should be re-versed; red buoys should be to port andblack buoys to starboard.Many bodies of water used by boaters areentirely within the boundaries of a particularstate. The Uniform State Waterway MarkingSystem has been devised for these waters.This system uses buoys and signs with dis-tinctive shapes and colors to show regulatoryor advisory information. These markers arewhite with black letters and orange boarders.They signify speed zones, restricted areas,danger areas, and general information.Remember, markings may vary by geo-graphic location. Always consult local boat-ing authorities before driving your boat inunfamiliar waters.

Battery cableThe battery cable size and length are critical.Consult your Yamaha dealer about the bat-tery cable size and length.EMU41604
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 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.Yamaha recommends to use a propeller suit-able for the “Shift Dampener System (SDS)”.For further information, consult your Yamaha
dealer.To check the propeller, see page 92.

For North America
For Oceania
NOTICEECM01982
Do not use leaded gasoline. Leadedgasoline 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.
Gasoline with EthanolTwo types of gasoline are commonly avail-able in the U.S.A., Canada, Australia andNew Zealand for use in automobiles andboats: conventional gasoline without Ethanoland gasoline with Ethanol, which is typicallyreferred to as E10 gasoline. According tofederal regulations, E10 gasoline may con-tain up to 10% Ethanol.A high quality gasoline without Ethanol is thepreferred fuel for your Yamaha outboard mo-
tor. However, if gasoline with Ethanol is theonly fuel available in your area, your Yamahaoutboard motor is calibrated to run properlyon fresh E10 gasoline that meets the mini-mum octane requirement specified for thismodel.
NOTICEECM02402
Never use a gasoline for your outboardmotor that contains more than 10% Etha-nol, such as E15 which contains 15% Eth-anol or E85 which contains 85% Ethanol,or gasoline containing any amount ofMethanol. These fuels can cause startingand running problems, as well as seriousfuel system and internal engine damage.
Gasoline containing ethanol has severalproperties that may cause boat fuel systemproblems. Ethanol is a strong solvent (cleaning
agent) that can clean gum and varnish de-posits from a boat’s fuel system, particular-ly in older boats, as well as tanks and pipesused in gasoline distribution. These re-leased deposits contaminate the fuel andcan cause problems, such as clogged fuelfilters, carburetors, or fuel injectors, whichcould result in engine damage.
Ethanol may dissolve resins used in theconstruction of fiberglass fuel tanks. Thedissolved resins contaminate the fuel andcan cause problems, such as clogged fuelfilters, carburetors, or fuel injectors, whichcould result in engine damage.
Ethanol is hygroscopic (has a strong at-traction to water). Therefore, any waterthat inadvertently enters the fuel system,including moisture that is absorbed fromthe air, will mix with the ethanol in the gas-oline. If the amount of water is excessive,the ethanol and water mixture will separate

from the gasoline in a layer at the bottomof the fuel tank. This ethanol and watermixture is very corrosive to aluminum fueltanks and fuel system components.
The usable life span of E10 gasoline maybe shorter than the normal length of off-season boat storage, causing starting andrunning problems related to stale fuel.
For more information on using fuel contain-ing ethanol, visit: http://www.yamaha-mo-tor.comGasoline FiltrationYamaha outboard motors are equipped withinternal fuel filters. However, excessive wa-ter or debris entering your engine’s fuel sys-tem could prematurely clog the internalfilters, causing starting and running prob-lems, fuel system damage, and internal en-gine damage. Therefore, it is recommendedthat an external 10-micron water-separatingfuel filter be installed on your boat and ser-viced frequently. Consult your authorizedYamaha dealer for a 10-micron filter thatmeets your engine’s requirements.EMU41342
Gasoline AdditivesGasoline blends change to meet automobileemission regulations and economic condi-tions. Additives, added by gasoline distribu-tors, necessary for proper automobile engineoperation and durability, may not be suffi-cient for typical boat applications. Intakevalve and combustion chamber depositsmay accumulate in boat engines more rapid-ly than encountered in automotive use. In ad-dition, gasoline used for boating will typicallyage longer between refills than gasolineused in automobiles, resulting in stale andunusable gasoline that may cause startingand running problems, fuel system damage,and internal engine damage.
Yamaha recommends the use of two Yama-lube gasoline additives to reduce internal de-posits and extend the storage life ofgasoline. Continuous use of Yamalube RingFree Fuel Additive Plus reduces harmful in-ternal deposits. Yamalube Fuel Stabilizer &Conditioner Plus added to fresh gasoline willhelp protect the fuel system from varnishingwhile helping to keep the gasoline’s octanelevel from decreasing excessively duringstorage. Other additives may also be avail-able on the market that may have varying de-grees of effectiveness. Consult your Yamahadealer concerning what may work best forthe locally available gasoline and environ-mental conditions.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.EMU41354
Anti-fouling paintA clean hull is required to maintain yourboat’s performance. Boats moored in the wa-ter should be protected from marine growth(barnacles, mussels, and marine plants). Ifapproved by regulations for your area, thebottom of the hull can be coated with an anti-fouling paint to inhibit marine growth.Anti-fouling paints specifically formulated foruse on aluminum may be applied to the out-board motor. The original Yamaha paint sur-face may be scuffed lightly before applyinganti-fouling paint, but do not remove the orig-inal paint. Removal of the original paint willincrease the rate of corrosion.

NOTICEECM04821
Anti-fouling paint for fiberglass andwood may contain materials, such ascopper, graphite, and tin, that cancause corrosion if applied to aluminumboats and outboard motor compo-nents. Never apply these types of paintto your outboard motor because rapidcorrosion damage could occur.
Anti-fouling paint can increase drag(friction) between the boat and the wa-ter, and possibly affect performance. Ifthe effects are too great, reducing pro-peller pitch may be necessary.
Sacrificial anodes are attached to the out-board motor to provide corrosion protectionand must never be painted.Sacrificial anodes made from a different ma-terial may be necessary for maximum corro-sion protection due to your local waterconditions. Please consult your Yamahadealer.

InstallationEMU26903
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.
EMU33471
Mounting the outboard motorThe outboard motor should be mounted sothat the boat is well balanced. Otherwise, theboat could be hard to steer. For single-en-gine boats, mount the outboard motor on thecenterline (keel line) of the boat.
EMU26937
Mounting height (boat bottom)The mounting height of your outboard motoraffects its efficiency and reliability. If it ismounted too high, propeller ventilation mayoccur, which will reduce propulsion due toexcessive propeller slip, and the water in-takes for the cooling system may not get anadequate water supply, which can cause en-gine overheating. If the engine is mountedtoo low, water resistance (drag) will increase,thereby reducing engine efficiency and per-formance.Most commonly, an outboard motor shouldbe mounted so that the anti-cavitation plateis in alignment with the bottom of the boat.The optimum mounting height of the out-board motor is affected by the boat/motorcombination and the desired use. Test runsat different heights can help determine theoptimum mounting height. Consult yourYamaha dealer or boat manufacturer for fur-ther information on determining the propermounting height.

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.

Fill engine oilThe engine is shipped from the factory with-out engine oil. If your dealer did not fill the oil,you must fill it before starting the engine.NOTICE: Check that the engine is filledwith oil before first-time operation toavoid severe engine damage. [ECM01782]
The engine is shipped with the following tag,which should be removed after engine oil isfilled for the first time. For more informationon checking the engine oil level, see page53.
EMU30175
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.

Trimming outboard motor
WARNINGEWM00741
Excessive trim for the operating condi-tions (either trim up or trim down) cancause boat instability and can makesteering the boat more difficult. This in-creases the possibility of an accident. Ifthe boat begins to feel unstable or is hardto steer, slow down and/or readjust thetrim angle.
The trim angle of the outboard motor helpsdetermine the position of the bow of the boatin the water. Correct trim angle will help im-prove performance and fuel economy whilereducing strain on the engine. Correct trimangle depends upon the combination ofboat, engine, and propeller. Correct trim isalso affected by variables such as the load inthe boat, sea conditions, and running speed.
EMU27889
Adjusting trim angle (Power trim and tilt)
WARNINGEWM00754
Be sure all people are clear of the out-board motor when adjusting the trimangle. Body parts can be crushed be-tween the motor and the clamp bracketwhen the motor is trimmed or tilted.
Use caution when trying a trim positionfor the first time. Increase speed gradu-ally and watch for any signs of instabil-ity or control problems. Improper trimangle can cause loss of control.
If equipped with a power trim and tiltswitch located on the bottom cowling,use the switch only when the boat is ata complete stop with the engine off. Donot adjust the trim angle with thisswitch while the boat is moving.

Adjust the outboard motor trim angle usingthe power trim and tilt switch.
To raise the bow (trim-out), press the switch“ ” (up).To lower the bow (trim-in), press the switch“ ” (down).Make test runs with the trim set to differentangles to find the position that works best foryour boat and operating conditions.EMU27913
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-

Transporting and storing outboard motor
WARNINGEWM02621
USE CARE when transporting fuel tank,whether in a boat or car.
DO NOT fill fuel container to maximumcapacity. Gasoline will expand consid-erably as it warms up and can build uppressure in the fuel container. This cancause fuel leakage and a potential firehazard.
Leaking fuel is a fire hazard. Whentransporting and storing the outboardmotor, disconnect the fuel line from theoutboard motor to prevent fuel fromleaking.
Never get under the outboard motorwhile it is tilted. Severe injury could oc-cur if the outboard motor accidentallyfalls.
Do not use the tilt support lever or knobwhen trailering the boat. The outboardmotor could shake loose from the tiltsupport and fall. If the outboard motorcannot be trailered in the normal run-ning position, use an additional sup-port device to secure it in the tiltposition.
When storing or transporting the outboardmotor, make sure to follow the procedure list-ed below. Disconnect the fuel hose from the fuel joint
on the outboard motor. Tighten the fuel tank cap and its air vent
screw. Store the fuel tank in a well-ventilated
place. Store the fuel tank in a place that is stable
and not exposed to shocks.
When the outboard motor is tilted for a pro-longed time for mooring or trailering the boat,make sure to follow the procedure listed be-low. Disconnect the fuel hose from the fuel joint
on the outboard motor. Tighten the fuel tank cap and its air vent
screw.The outboard motor should be transportedand stored in the normal running position. Ifthere is insufficient road clearance in this po-sition, then trailer the outboard motor in thetilt position using a motor support devicesuch as a transom saver bar. Consult yourYamaha dealer for further details.
EMU28282
Storing outboard motorWhen storing your Yamaha outboard motorfor prolonged periods of time (2 months orlonger), several important procedures mustbe performed to prevent excessive damage.It is advisable to have your outboard motorserviced by an authorized Yamaha dealerprior to storage. However, you, the owner,with a minimum of tools, can perform the fol-lowing procedures.

the attitude shown when transportingand storing it. If storing or transportingthe outboard motor on its side (not up-right), put it on a cushion after drainingthe engine oil.
Do not place the outboard motor on itsside before the cooling water hasdrained from it completely, otherwisewater may enter the cylinder throughthe exhaust port and cause engine trou-ble.
Store the outboard motor in a dry, well-ventilated place, not in direct sunlight.
EMU41382
Conditioning and stabilizing gasolineWhen preparing to store a boat for extendedperiods (2 months or longer) it is best to com-pletely remove all gasoline from the boat’sfuel tank(s). If it is not possible to remove thegasoline, add one ounce of “Yamalube FuelStabilizer & Conditioner Plus” to each gallonof gasoline in a full tank of gasoline to pro-vide fuel stability and corrosion protection.
TIP:Do not fill the fuel tank(s) to the point of over-flowing. Approximately 7/8 full will allowenough space in the fuel tank to prevent gas-oline purging from the fuel tank vent due toexpansion with temperature changes.Do not cap the fuel tank vent. Excessivepressure could damage the boat and motor’sfuel systems.A partially filled fuel tank, less than 7/8 fullbut not completely empty, is not recommend-ed. Air space above the gasoline allows airmovement which can bring in water throughcondensation as the air temperature chang-es.Condensation inside the fuel tank can causecorrosion problems and phase separation ofgasoline containing ethanol.
Consult your Yamaha dealer concerning pre-ventative measures that may work best forthe gasoline and environmental conditions inyour area.EMU28306

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 aYamaha 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-

Starter will not operateIf the starter mechanism does not operate(the engine cannot be cranked with the start-er), the engine can be started manually withan emergency starter rope. However, the en-gine cannot be started manually if the batteryvoltage is low. If the battery is discharged to9 volts or below, the electric fuel pump willnot operate.
WARNINGEWM01023
Use this procedure only in an emergen-cy to return to the nearest port for re-pairs.
When the emergency starter rope isused to start the engine, the start-in-gear protection device does not oper-ate. Make sure the remote control leveris in neutral. Otherwise the boat couldunexpectedly start to move, whichcould result in an accident.
Attach the engine shut-off cord to a se-
cure place on your clothing, or yourarm or leg while operating the boat.
Do not attach the cord to clothing thatcould tear loose. Do not route the cordwhere it could become entangled, pre-venting it from functioning.
Avoid accidentally pulling the cord dur-ing normal operation. Loss of enginepower means the loss of most steeringcontrol. Also, without engine power,the boat could slow rapidly. This couldcause people and objects in the boat tobe thrown forward.
Make sure no one is standing behindyou when pulling the starter rope. Itcould whip behind you and injuresomeone.
An unguarded, rotating flywheel is verydangerous. Keep loose clothing andother objects away when starting theengine. Use the emergency starter ropeonly as instructed. Do not touch the fly-wheel or other moving parts when theengine is running. Do not install thestarter mechanism or top cowling afterthe engine is running.
Do not touch the ignition coil, sparkplug wire, spark plug cap, or other elec-trical components when starting or op-erating the motor. You could get anelectrical shock.

Yamaha Motor Corporation, U.S.A. and Yamaha Motor Canada Ltd. (“Yamaha”) hereby warrant that new Yamaha four-stroke outboard motors will be free from defects in material and workmanship for the period of time stated herein, subject to certain stated limitations.
PERIOD OF WARRANTY. Any new Yamaha four-stroke outboard motor purchased from an authorized Yamaha dealer in the customer’s country of residence (United States or Canada) and registered with Yamaha will be warranted against defects in material or workmanship, subject to exclusions noted herein, for the following applicable period determined by type of use:

During the period of warranty, any authorized Yamaha Outboard Motor Dealer in the country of residence will, free of charge, repair or replace, at Yamaha’s option, any parts adjudged defective by Yamaha due to faulty workmanship or material from the factory. All replaced parts will become the property of Yamaha. If the customer is temporarily using a U.S.-registered outboard motor in Canada, or a Canada-registered outboard motor in the United States, and it needs warranty repairs, the owner should contact a nearby authorized Yamaha Outboard Motor Dealer for assistance. The local dealer will contact Yamaha on the owner’s behalf so that needed repairs can be made as quickly as possible.
CUSTOMER’S RESPONSIBILITY. Under the terms of this warranty, the customer will be responsible for ensuring that the outboard motor is properly operated, maintained, and stored as specified in the applicable Owner’s Manual. The owner of the outboard motor shall give notice to an authorized Yamaha Outboard Motor Dealer of any and all apparent defects within ten (10) days of discovery and make the motor available at that time for inspection and repairs at the dealer’s place of business.

IMPORTANT WARRANTY INFORMATION IF YOU USE YOUR YAMAHA OUTSIDE THE U.S.A. OR CANADA
Welcome to the Yamaha Family!
Congratulations on the purchase of your new Yamaha products. Yamaha is commit-ted to exceptional customer satisfaction and we want your ownership experience to be a satisfying one. Please read the following warranty information to help ensure satisfaction with your Yamaha.
This model was manufactured with specifications appropriate for sale and use in the U.S.A. and Canada. Please note the following information:
Your Yamaha model may not be sold in some countries. Therefore, a Yamaha dealer outside the United States or Canada may not have all of the replacement parts or technical information available to provide proper service. This may unavoidably delay repairs. Thank you for your understanding should this happen.
TIP:
1. As explained in the Limited Warranty Statement, the Yamaha warranty covers your Yamaha when it is registered and used in your country of residence. If you are temporarily using a U.S.-registered outboard motor in Canada, or a Canada-registered outboard motor in the United States, and it needs warranty repairs, you should contact a nearby authorized Yamaha Outboard Motor Dealer for assistance. The local dealer will contact Yamaha on the owner’s behalf so that needed repairs can be made as quickly as possible.
2. If you need repairs while temporarily using your Yamaha in another country, contact the local authorized Yamaha distributor for that country. Yamaha will work with that distributor to make the needed repairs as quickly as possible. If you have to pay for a repair that you believe your warranty would have covered at home, present all repair orders, receipts, or other related documents to your local dealer when you return home. He will be able to contact Yamaha on your behalf to see if any refund can be provided.
3. If your Yamaha is registered or used primarily outside the United States or Canada, the warranty printed in this manual does not apply to you. Contact the dealer who sold the Yamaha marine power unit to you for customer support information.
