IDENTIFICATION IDENTIFICATION SERIAL NUMBER The outboard motor’s serial number is stamped on a label which is attached to the port clamp bracket. NOTE: As an antitheft measure, a special label on which the outboard motor’s serial number is stamped is bonded to the port clamp bracket.
Protect hands and feet by wearing safety gloves or protective shoes if appropriate to the work you are doing. OILS, GREASES AND SEALING FLUIDS Use only genuine Yamaha oils, greases and sealing fluids or those recommended by Yamaha.
SAFETY WHILE WORKING Under normal conditions or use, there should be no hazards from the use of the lubricants mentioned in this manual, but safety is all- important, and by adopting good safety practices, any risk is minimized. A summary of the most important precautions is as follows: 1.
SAFETY WHILE WORKING 3. Non-reusable items Always use new gaskets, packings, O- rings, split-pins, circlips, etc., on reassembly. DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY 1. Clean parts with compressed air when disassembling. 2. Oil the contact surfaces of moving parts before assembly. 3. After assembly, check that moving parts operate normally.
SPECIAL TOOLS SPECIAL TOOLS Using the correct special tools recommended by Yamaha, will aid the work and enable accurate assembly and tune-up. Improvising and using improper tools can damage the equipment. NOTE: For U.S.A. and Canada, use part numbers that start with “J-”, “YB-” “YM-”, “YU-”...
