Specifications and requirements

Boat horsepower rating
EWM01561
Overpowering a boat can cause severe in-
stability.
Before installing the outboard motor(s), con-
firm that the total horsepower of your out-
board motor(s) does not exceed the boats
maximum horsepower rating. See the boat's
capacity plate or contact the manufacturer.
EMU40491
Mounting outboard motor
EWM02501
Improper mounting of the outboard mo-
tor could result in hazardous conditions
such as poor handling, loss of control,
or fire hazards.
Because the outboard motor is very
heavy, special equipment and training is
required to mount it safely.
Your dealer or other person experienced in
proper rigging should mount the outboard
motor using correct equipment and complete
rigging instructions. For further information,
see page 48.
EMU33582
Remote control requirements
EWM01581
If the engine starts in gear, the boat can
move suddenly and unexpectedly, pos-
sibly causing a collision or throwing
passengers overboard.
If the engine ever starts in gear, the
start-in-gear protection device is not
working correctly and you should dis-
continue using the outboard. Contact
your Yamaha dealer.
