Self-protection

• Protect your eyes by wearing safety
glasses or safety goggles during all opera-
tions involving drilling and grinding, or when
using an air compressor.
• Protect your hands and feet by wearing
protective gloves and safety shoes when
necessary.

Working with crane

• Outboard motors weighing 18.0 kg (39.7 lb)
and over must be carried by a crane.
• Use the wire ropes of adequate strength,
and lift up the outboard motor using the
three point suspension.
• If the outboard motor does not have three
or more points to be suspended, support it
using additional ropes or the like so that the
outboard motor can be lifted and carried in
a stable manner.
Safety while working

Handling of gas torch

• Improper handling of a gas torch may result
in burns. For information on the proper han-
dling of the gas torch, see the operation
manual issued by the manufacturer.
• When using a gas torch, keep it away from
the gasoline and oil, to prevent a fire.
• Components become hot enough to cause
burns. Do not touch any hot components
directly.

and sealants, or those recommended by
Yamaha, when servicing or repairing the out-
board motor.

Handling of sealant

• Wear protective gloves to protect your skin,
when using the sealants.
• See the material safety data sheet issued
