STORING OUTBOARD MOTOR

When storing your Yamaha outboard for prolonged periods of time, (2 months or longer), several important procedures must be performed to prevent expensive damage. It is advisable to have your outboard serviced by an authorized Yamaha dealer prior to stor- age. However, the following procedures can be performed by you, the owner, with a minimum of tools.

CAUTION:

Keep the engine in one of the posi- tions shown when storing it. Other- wise, oil could enter the cylinder from the sump, which could cause mechani- cal damage or leakage.

Drain cooling water completely before placing the engine on its side. Other- wise, water may enter the engine through the exhaust manifold and cause corrosion or other mechanical damage.

Store the engine in a dry, well-venti- lated place, not in direct sunlight.
