1 Safety information EMU33622 Outboard motor safety Observe these precautions at all times.EMU36501 Propeller People can be injured or killed if they come in contact with the propeller. The propeller can keep moving even when the motor is in neutral, and sharp edges of the propeller can cut even when stationary. ●Stop the engine when a person is in the water near you. ●Keep people out of reach of the propeller, even when the engine is off. EMU33630 Rotating parts Hands, feet, hair, jewelry, clothing, PFD straps, etc. can become entangled with inter- nal rotating parts of the engine, resulting in serious injury or death. Keep the top cowling in place whenever pos- sible. Do not remove or replace the cowling with the engine running. Only operate the engine with the cowling re- moved according to the specific instructions in the manual. Keep hands, feet, hair, jewel- ry, clothing, PFD straps, etc. away from any exposed moving parts. EMU33640 Hot parts During and after operation, engine parts are hot enough to cause burns. Avoid touching any parts under the top cowling until the en- gine has cooled. EMU33650 Electric shock Do not touch any electrical parts while start- ing or operating the engine. They can cause shock or electrocution. EMU33660 Power trim and tilt Body parts can be crushed between the mo-tor and the clamp bracket when the motor is trimmed or tilted. Keep body parts out of this area at all times. Be sure no one is in this area before operating the power trim and tilt mechanism. The power trim and tilt switches operate even when the main switch is off. Keep peo- ple be away from the switches whenever working around the motor. Never get under the lower unit while it is tilt- ed, even when the tilt support lever is locked. Severe injury could occur if the outboard mo- tor accidentally falls. EMU33671 Engine shut-off cord (lanyard) Attach the engine shut-off cord so that the engine stops if the operator falls overboard or leaves the helm. This prevents the boat from running away under power and leaving people stranded, or running over people or objects. Always attach the engine shut-off cord to a secure place on your clothing or your arm or leg while operating. Do not remove it to leave the helm while the boat is moving. Do not at- tach the cord to clothing that could tear loose, or route the cord where it could be- come entangled, preventing it from function- ing. Do not route the cord where it is likely to be accidentally pulled out. If the cord is pulled during operation, the engine will shut off and you will lose most steering control. The boat could slow rapidly, throwing people and ob- jects forward. EMU33810 Gasoline Gasoline and its vapors are highly flam- mable and explosive. Always, refuel ac- cording to the procedure on page 56 to reduce the risk of fire and explosion. 6C1-9-19.book 1 ページ ２０１０年２月１７日 水曜日 午後１時３８分
Safety information 2 EMU33820 Gasoline exposure and spills Take care not to spill gasoline. If gasoline spills, wipe it up immediately with dry rags. Dispose of rags properly. If any gasoline spills onto your skin, immedi- ately wash with soap and water. Change clothing if gasoline spills on it. If you swallow gasoline, inhale a lot of gaso- line vapor, or get gasoline in your eyes, get immediate medical attention. Never siphon fuel by mouth. EMU33900 Carbon monoxide This product emits exhaust gases which con- tain carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas which may cause brain damage or death when inhaled. Symptoms include nausea, dizziness, and drowsiness. Keep cockpit and cabin areas well ventilated. Avoid blocking exhaust outlets. EMU33780 Modifications Do not attempt to modify this outboard mo- tor. Modifications to your outboard motor may reduce safety and reliability, and render the outboard unsafe or illegal to use. EMU33740 Boating safety This section includes a few of the many im- portant safety precautions that you should follow when boating. EMU33710 Alcohol and drugs Never operate after drinking alcohol or taking drugs. Intoxication is one of the most com- mon factors contributing to boating fatalities. EMU33720 Personal flotation devices Have an approved personal flotation device (PFD) on board for every occupant. Yamaha recommends that you must wear a PFDwhenever boating. At a minimum, children and non-swimmers should always wear PFDs, and everyone should wear PFDs when there are potentially hazardous boat- ing conditions. EMU33731 People in the water Always watch carefully for people in the wa- ter, such as swimmers, skiers, or divers, whenever the engine is running. When someone is in the water near the boat, shift into neutral and stop the engine. Stay away from swimming areas. Swimmers can be hard to see. The propeller can keep moving even when the motor is in neutral. Stop the engine when a person is in the water near you. EMU33751 Passengers Consult your boat manufacturer’s instruc- tions for details about appropriate passenger locations in your boat and be sure all pas- sengers are positioned properly before ac- celerating and when operating above an idle speed. Standing or sitting in non-designated locations may result in being thrown either overboard or within the boat due to waves, wakes, or sudden changes in speed or direc- tion. Even when people are positioned prop- erly, alert your passengers if you must make any unusual maneuver. Always avoid jump- ing waves or wakes. EMU33760 Overloading Do not overload the boat. Consult the boat capacity plate or boat manufacturer for max- imum weight and number of passengers. Be sure that weight is properly distributed ac- cording to the boat manufacturers instruc- tions. Overloading or incorrect weight distribution can compromise the boats han- dling and lead to an accident, capsizing or 6C1-9-19.book 2 ページ ２０１０年２月１７日 水曜日 午後１時３８分
Safety information 3 swamping.EMU33772 Avoid collisions Scan constantly for people, objects, and oth- er boats. Be alert for conditions that limit your visibility or block your vision of others. Operate defensively at safe speeds and keep a safe distance away from people, ob- jects, and other boats. ●Do not follow directly behind other boats or waterskiers. ●Avoid sharp turns or other maneuvers that make it hard for others to avoid you or un- derstand where you are going. ●Avoid areas with submerged objects or shallow water. ●Ride within your limits and avoid aggres- sive maneuvers to reduce the risk of loss of control, ejection, and collision. ●Take early action to avoid collisions. Re- member, boats do not have brakes, and stopping the engine or reducing throttle can reduce the ability to steer. If you are not sure that you can stop in time before hitting an obstacle, apply throttle and turn in another direction. EMU33790 Weather Stay informed about the weather. Check weather forecasts before boating. Avoid boating in hazardous weather. EMU33800 Accident reporting Boat operators are required by law to file a Boating Accident Report with their state boating law enforcement agency if their boat is involved in any of the following accidents: 1. There is loss of life or probable loss of life. 2. There is personal injury that requires medical attention beyond first aid. 3. There is property damage to boats or other property over a certain amount. 4. There is complete loss of a boat. Contact local law enforcement personnel if a report is necessary. EMU33870 Boat education and training Operators should take a boating safety course. This may be required in your state. Many of the organizations listed in the next section can provide information about cours- es in your area. You may also want to consider an Internet- based program for basic boater education. The Online Boating Safety Course provided by the BoatU.S. Foundation, is approved by the National Association of State Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA) and recog- nized by the United States Coast Guard. Most, but not all, states accept this course to meet their minimum requirements. While it cannot replace an in-depth course such as one offered by the U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Power Squadron, or other organization, this online course does provide a general over- view of the basics in boating safety, require- ments, navigation, and operation. Upon successful completion of the course, the user can download a certificate of comple- tion immediately or, for a small charge, re- quest one by mail. To take this free course, go to boatus.org.

Safety information 4 EMU33880 Passenger training Make sure at least one other passenger is trained to operate the boat in the event of an emergency. EMU33890 Boating safety publications Be informed about boating safety. Additional publications and information can be obtained from many boating organizations. EMU33590 Laws and regulations Know the marine laws and regulations where you will be boating- and obey them. Several sets of rules prevail according to geographic location, but all are basically the same as the International Rules of the Road. The rules presented in the following section are con- densed- and have been provided for your convenience only. Contact the U.S. Coast Guard, the National Association of State Boating Law Adminis- trators, or your local Power Squadron for a complete set of rules governing the waters in which you will be using your boat.
