Page 10: Battery Requirement
General information Yamaha outboard motors are fitted with pro- pellers chosen to perform well over a range of applications, but there may be uses where a propeller with a different pitch would be more appropriate. For a greater operating load, a smaller-pitch propeller is more suit- able as it enables the correct engine speed to be maintained. -
