Outboard Remote Control Models
The remote control connected to your outboard must be
equipped with a start in neutral only protection device. This
prevents the engine from starting when the shift is actuated in
any position other than neutral.
!
WARNING
Starting the engine with the drive in gear can cause serious
injury or death. Never operate a boat that does not have a
neutral‑safety‑protection device.
Propeller Selection
The propeller on your outboard is one of the most important
components in the propulsion system. An improper propeller
choice can significantly affect the performance of your boat and
could result in damage to the outboard engine.
When choosing a propeller, a full selection of aluminum and
stainless steel propellers specifically designed for your outboard
are available through Mercury Marine. To view the entire product
offering and find the correct propeller that is best suited for your
application, visit www.mercmarinepropellers.com or see your
local authorized Mercury dealer.
SELECTING THE CORRECT PROPELLER
An accurate tachometer for measuring engine speed is important
in choosing the correct propeller.
