Do not exceed the boat manu-
facturer’s power recommendation.
Damage and injury may result.
Two shaft lengths are available for
your outboard motor, either long or
short, to match the transom height
of the boat.

TRANSOM HEIGHT
INSTALLATION HEIGHT
For proper propeller depth and
engine cooling, the boat’s transom
height must match the motors shaft
length. This outboard motor is in-
tended for use with boats that have
a transom height of:
15.0 in (380 mm) for the short shaft
motor / Y”
ANTICAVITATION PLATE
20.1 in (510 mm) for the long shaft
motor
With the boat in the water, properly loaded, and the engine stopped, check the
installed depth of the outboard motor by looking at the anticavitation plate.
The anticavitation plate should be about 5.9 in (150 mm) below the surface of
the water.
Running the outboard motor without sufficient water will overheat the engine.
