CONTROLS AND FEATURES
COOLING SYSTEM INDICATOR
WATER SEPARATOR
Water should flow from the cooling
system indicator while the engine is
running. This shows that water is
circulating through the cooling
system.
If water stops flowing while the
engine is running, it indicates a
cooling system problem, such as
clogged water intakes, which will
cause engine overheating.
The water separator buzzer sounds a
rapid, repeating signal when water
has accumulated in the water
separator.
The engine is equipped with an
overrev limiter to prevent the
possibility of mechanical damage
from excessive engine speed.
The overrev limiter may be activated
during operation, limiting engine
speed, if the outboard motor is
trimmed or tilted excessively, or
when propeller ventilation occurs
during a sharp turn.
If the overrev limiter is activated,
check the trim angle of the outboard
motor.
Check to see if the correct propeller
is installed.
The cooling system indicator
discharge port can also become
plugged.
