Safety Information

Observe these precautions at all times.

Propeller

People can be injured or killed if they come in

contact with the propeller. The propeller can keep

moving even when the motor is in

neutral, and sharp edges of the propeller can cut

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.

Rotating parts

Hands, feet, hair, jewelry, clothing, straps, etc.

can become entangled with internal rotating parts of

the engine, resulting in serious injury or death.

Keep the top cowling in place whenever

possible. Do not remove or replace the cowling

with the engine running.

Only operate the engine with the cowling

removed according to the specific instructions in the

manual. Keep hands, feet, hair, jewelry,

clothing,

straps, etc. away from any exposed moving parts.

Hot parts

During and after operation, engine parts are hot

enough to cause burns. Avoid touching any parts

under the top cowling until the

engine has cooled.

Electric shock

Do not touch any electrical parts while starting or

operating the engine. They can cause shock or

electrocution.

Engine shut-off cord (lanyard)

Attach the engine shut-off cord so that the

engine stops if the operator falls overboard or

leaves the helm. This prevents the boat from

running away under power and leaving people

stranded, or running over people or objects.

Always attach the engine shut-off cord to a

secure place on your clothing or your arm or leg

while operating. Do not remove it to leave the

helm while the boat is moving. Do not attach the

cord to clothing that could tear loose,

or route the

cord where it could become entangled,

preventing it from functioning.

Do not route the cord where it is likely to be

accidentally pulled out. If the cord is pulled

during operation, the engine will shut off and you

will lose most steering control. The boat

could

slow rapidly, throwing people and objects

forward.

Gasoline

Gasoline and its vapors are highly flammable

and explosive.

Gasoline exposure and spills

Take care not to spill gasoline. If gasoline

spills, wipe it up immediately with dry rags.

Dispose of rags properly.

If any gasoline spills onto your skin, immediately

wash with soap and water. Change clothing if

gasoline spills on it.

If you swallow gasoline, inhale a lot of gasoline

vapor, or get gasoline in your eyes, get

immediate medical attention. Never siphon fuel

by mouth.

Carbon monoxide

This product emits exhaust gases which contain

carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas

which may cause brain damage or death when

inhaled. Symptoms include nausea,

dizziness,

and drowsiness. Keep cockpit and cabin areas

well ventilated. Avoid blocking exhaust outlets.

Safety Information

Modifications

Do not attempt to modify this outboard motor.

Modifications to your outboard motor may

duce

safety and reliability, and render the

out

board

unsafe or illegal to use.

Boating safety

This section includes a few of the many

important safety precautions that you should

follow when boating.

Alcohol and drugs

Never operate after drinking alcohol or taking

drugs. Intoxication is one of the most common

factors contributing to boating fatalities.

Personal flotation devices

Have an approved personal flotation device

(PFD) on board for every occupant. You must

wear a PFD

whenever boating. At a minimum,

children

and non-swimmers should always

wear

PFDs, and everyone should wear PFDs

when there are potentially hazardous boating

conditions.

People in the water

Always watch carefully for people in the water,

such as swimmers, skiers, or divers, whenever

the engine is running. When someone is in the

water near the boat, shift into

neutral and stop

the engine.

Stay away from swimming areas. Swimmers

can be hard to see.

The propeller can keep moving even when the

motor is in neutral. Stop the engine when

person is in the water near you.

Passengers

Consult your boat manufacturer's instructions for

details about appropriate passenger locations in

your boat and be sure all passengers

are

positioned properly before accelerating

and when operating above an idle speed.

Standing or sitting in non-designated locations

may result in being thrown either overboard or

within the boat due to waves, wakes, or sudden

changes in speed or direction. Even when people

are positioned properly,

alert your passengers if

you must make any

unusual maneuver. Always

avoid jumping

waves or wakes.

Overloading

Do not overload the boat. Consult the boat

capacity plate or boat manufacturer for maxi-

mum weight and number of passengers. Be

sure that weight is properly distributed

according to the boat manufacturers

instructions. Overloading or incorrect weight

distribution can compromise the boats handling

and lead to an accident, capsizing or

swamping.

Avoid collisions

Scan constantly for people, objects, and other

boats. Be alert for conditions that limit your

visibility or block your vision of others.

Operate defensively at safe speeds and keep

safe distance away from people, objects, and

other boats.

•

Do not follow directly behind other boats or

water skiers.

Safety Information

Avoid sharp turns or other maneuvers that

make it

hard for others to avoid you or understand where you

are going.

Avoid areas with submerged objects or shallow

water.

Ride within your limits and avoid aggressive

maneuvers to reduce the risk of loss of control, ejection

and collision.

Take early action to avoid collisions. Remember,

boats do not have brakes, and stopping the engine

or reducing throttle can reduce the ability to steer. If

you are not

sure that you can stop in time before

hitting an obstacle, apply throttle and turn in another

direction.

Weather

Stay informed about the weather. Check weather

forecasts before boating. Avoid boating in hazardous

weather.

Accident reporting

Boat operators are required by law to file a Boating

Accident Report with their state boating law

enforcement agency if the boat is involved 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 a report is necessary.

Boat education and training

Operators should take boating safety course. This

may be required in your state.

Many of the

organizations listed in the next

section can provide

information about courses in your area.

You may also want to consider an Internet-

based program for basic boater education.

The

Online Boating Safety Course provided by the

Boat U.S. Foundation, is approved by the

National Association of State Boating Law

Administrators (NASBLA) and recognized by the

United States Coast Guard. Most, but not

all,

states accept this course to meet their

minimum requirements. While it cannot re-

place an in-depth course such as one offered by

the U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Power Squadron, or

other organization, this online course does

provide a general overview of the basics in

boating safety, requirements, navigation,

and

operation. Upon successful completion of

the

course, the user can download a certificate of

completion immediately or, for a small charge,

request one by mail. To take this free course, go

to boatus.org.

Passenger training

Make sure at least one other passenger is

trained to operate the boat in the event of an

emergency.

Boating safety publications

Be informed about boating safety. Additional

publications and information can be obtained

from many boating organizations.

Laws and regulations

Know the marine laws and regulations where you

will be boating and obey them. Several sets of

rules prevail according to geographic location,

but all are basically the same as the International

Rules of the Road. The rules presented in the

following section are condensed and have

been provided for your convenience.

Safety information

Contact the U.S. Coast Guard, the National

Association of State Boating Law Administrators,

or your local Power Squadron for a complete set

of rules governing the waters in which you will

be using your boat.

Basic boating rules (Rules of the road)

Just as there are rules that apply when you are

driving on streets and highways, there are

waterway rules that apply when you are driving

your boat. These rules are used internationally.

(For U.S.A.: and are also enforced by the United

States Coast Guard and local agencies.) You

should be aware of these rules, and follow them

whenever you encounter another vessel on the

water.

Steering and sailing rules and sound

signals

Whenever two vessels on the water meet one

another, one vessel has the right-of-way; it is

called the “stand-on” vessel. The vessel that

does

not have the right-of-way is called the “give-way”

or “burdened” vessel. These rules determine

which vessel has the right-of-way,

and what each

vessel should do.

Stand-on vessel

The vessel with the right-of-way has the duty to

continue its course and speed, except to avoid

an immediate collision. When you maintain your

direction and speed, the other vessel will be able to

determine how best to avoid you.

Give-way vessel

The vessel that does NOT have the right-of-way

has the duty to take positive and timely action to

stay out of the way of the Stand-On vessel.

Normally, you should not cross in front

of the vessel

with the right-of-way.

Safety Information

You should slow down or change directions briefly

and pass behind the other vessel. You should

always move in such a way that the operator of

the

other vessel can see what you are doing.

“The general prudential rule”

This rule is called Rule 2 in the International

Rules and says,

“In obeying and construing these rules due regard

shall be had to all dangers of navigation and

collision, and to any special circumstances, which

may render a departure from the above rules

necessary in order to avoid immediate danger.”

In other words, follow the standard rules except

when a collision will occur unless both vessels try

to avoid each other. If that is the case, both vessels

become “ Give-Way ” vessels.

Rules when encountering vessels

There are three

main situations that you may encounter with other

vessels which could lead to a collision unless the

Steering Rules are followed:

Meeting: (you are approaching another vessel

head-on)

Crossing: (you are traveling across the other

vessel’s path)

Overtaking: (you are passing or being passed by

another vessel)

In the following illustration, your boat is in the center.

You should give the right-of-way to any vessels

shown in white area (you are the Give-Way vessel).

Any vessels in the shaded area must yield to you

(they are the Give-Way vessels). Both you and the

meeting vessel must alter course to avoid each

other.

Meeting

If you are meeting another power vessel head

on, and are close enough to run the risk of

collision, neither of you has the right-of-way Both

of you should alter course to avoid an

accident. You should keep the other vessel

on your port (left) side. This rule doesn’t apply if

both of you will clear one another if you continue

on your set course and speed.

Crossing

When two power driven vessels are crossing

each other’s path close enough to run the risk of

collision, the vessel which has the other on the

starboard (right) side must keep out of the way of

the other. If the other vessel is on your right, you

must keep out of its way; you are the Give-Way

vessel. If the other vessel is on your port

(left) side, remember that you should maintain

course and direction, provided the other vessel

gives you the right-of-way as it should.

Safety information

Overtaking

If you are passing another vessel, you are the “Give-

Way” vessel. This means that the other vessel is

expected to maintain its course and speed. You

must stay out of its way until you are clear of it.

Likewise, if another vessel is passing you, you

should maintain your speed and direction so that

the other vessel can steer itself around you.

Narrow channels and bends

When navigating in narrow channels, you should

keep to the right when it is safe and practical to

do so. If the operator of a power- driven vessel is

preparing to go around a bend that may obstruct

the view of other water vessels, the operator

should sound a pro- longed blast on the whistle

(4 - 6 seconds). If

another vessel is around the

bend, it too should sound the whistle. Even if no

reply is heard, however, the vessel should still

proceed around the bend with caution. If you navigate

such waters with your boat, you will need to

carry a portable air horn.

Fishing vessel right-of-way

All vessels that are fishing with nets, lines or

trawls are considered to be “fishing vessels”

under the International Rules. Vessels with

trolling lines are not considered fishing vessels.

Fishing vessels have the right-of-way regardless of

position. Fishing vessels cannot,

however, impede

the passage of other vessels in narrow channels.

Sailing vessel right-of-way

Sailing vessels should normally be given the right-

of-way. The exceptions to this are:

1. When the sailing vessel is overtaking the

power-driven vessel, the power-driven vessel has

the right-of-way.

2. Sailing vessels should keep clear of any

fishing vessel.

3. In a narrow channel, a sailing vessel should

not hamper the safe passage of a power-driven

vessel that can navigate only in such a channel.

Reading buoys and other markers

The waters of the United States are marked for

safe navigation by the lateral system of

buoyage. Simply put, buoys and markers have an

arrangement of shapes, colors, numbers and lights

to show which side of the buoy a boater should

pass on when navigating in a particular direction.

The markings on these buoys are oriented from

the perspective of being entered from seaward (the

boater is going towards the port). This means that

red buoys are passed on the starboard (right) side

when proceeding from open water into port,

and black buoys are to port (left) side. When

navigating out of port, your position with respect to

the buoys should be reversed; red buoys should

be to port and black buoys to starboard.

Safety Information

Many bodies of water used by boaters are entirely

within the boundaries of a particular state. The

Uniform State Waterway Marking System has been

devised for these waters.

This system uses buoys

and signs with distinctive shapes and colors to show

regulatory or advisory information. These markers

are white with black letters and orange boarders.

They signify speed zones, restricted areas,

danger areas, and general information.

Remember, markings may vary by geographic

location. Always consult local boating authorities

before driving your boat in unfamiliar waters.
