WARNING
EWJ00440
GASOLINE AND ITS VAPORS ARE HIGH-
LY FLAMMABLE AND EXPLOSIVE!

Do not smoke when refueling, and keep
away from sparks, flames, and other
sources of ignition.

Stop the engine before refueling.

Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the
watercraft in a horizontal position.

Do not stand or sit on the watercraft
while refueling in case of fire.

Take care not to spill gasoline. If gaso-
line spills, wipe it up immediately with
dry rags. Always properly dispose of
gasoline-soaked rags.

Avoid overfilling the fuel tank. Stop fill-
ing when the fuel level just reaches the
bottom of the filler tube. Do not fill up the
filler tube because fuel expands as it
warms up and could overflow. If tempo-
rarily leaving the watercraft with a full
fuel tank, do not leave it in direct sun-
light. Leave it in a well-ventilated area
with the watercraft in a horizontal posi-
tion.

Tighten the fuel tank filler cap securely
after refueling.

If you should swallow some gasoline, in-
hale a lot of gasoline vapor, or get gaso-
line in your eyes, get immediate medical
attention.

If any gasoline spills on your skin or
clothing, immediately wash the affected
area with soap and water and change
your clothes.
CAUTION:
ECJ00310
Use only fresh gasoline that has been
stored in clean containers.
EJU31860Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gasohol con-
taining ethanol and that containing methanol.
Gasohol containing ethanol can be used if
ethanol content does not exceed 10% and the
fuel meets the minimum octane ratings.
Gasohol containing methanol is not recom-
mended by Yamaha because it can cause
fuel system damage and engine performance
problems.
EJU318702-stroke engine oil
If YAMALUBE 2-W engine oil is not available,
another 2-stroke engine oil with an NMMA-
certified TC-W3 rating may be used.
EJU31900Mixing fuel and oil
CAUTION:
ECJ00330

Avoid using any mixture of gasoline and
oil other than those specified.

Make sure that the gasoline and oil are
thoroughly mixed in the correct ratio,
otherwise the following problems may
occur. Too little oil in the fuel-to-oil ratio
could result in major engine trouble,
such as seizure. Too much oil in the fuel-Recommended gasoline:
Regular unleaded gasoline with a mini-
mum octane rating of
86 (Pump octane number) = (R +
M)/2
90 (Research octane number)
Recommended engine oil:
YAMALUBE 2-W or TC-W3 outboard
motor oil or equivalent

EJU33560Lubrication
WARNING
EWJ00300
To reduce the risk of fire or explosion:
Never pour or spray gasoline, or any sub-
stance other than a rust inhibitor through
the hole in the carburetor silencer cover.
CAUTION:
ECJ00150

Be sure to install the silencer cap se-
curely after fogging the engine, other-
wise water could enter the engine and
cause damage.

Do not run the engine for more than 15
seconds on land, otherwise the engine
could overheat.
(1) Remove the silencer cap.
(2) Start the engine with the watercraft in a
well-ventilated area.
(3) With the engine running at a fast idle,
quickly spray as much rust inhibitor as
possible through the hole in the silencer
cover. Keep spraying until the engine
stalls (or a maximum of 15 seconds).
(4) Install the silencer cap securely.
(5) Lubricate all cables such as the throttle,
choke, and steering cables.
NOTE:
Use a suitable marine grease applicator to
pressure-lubricate the cables and purge out
any moisture between the inner and outer ca-
bles.
(6) Lubricate the areas of the watercraft
specified in “Lubrication points” on page
57.
