GEAR CASE
OIL RECOMMENDATION
• The gear case is shipped from factory WITH oil.
• Use a high quality 80W 90W gear oil.
• DO NOT use special additives.
Gear Case Lubrication
Drain and fill the gear case with fresh oil every 50 hours and at
the end of the boating season.

ON / OFF/ BATTERY TEST SWITCH
The outboard switch is used for the following:
Ê

Ë
Turns motor off.
BATTERY - Press to test battery switch
that works in conjunction with the battery gauge.
Once the power harness is connected to the outboard
receptacle, the voltage may be tested. Press and hold the
Ì
battery test
of the ON/OFF/BATTERY TEST switch. Allow
the battery gauge to read the state of charge of the battery
pack.
BATTERY GAUGE
Í
When the needle moves fully to the right
fully charged to 48 volts or higher. As the battery pack is
discharged, the needle will only rise to the level of charge
remaining in the battery pack.
When the battery gauge needle reaches the far left
circle, the battery pack is discharged to 45 volts or less. Head
to shore and recharge the battery pack.
LOW VOLTAGE WARNING SOUND
A beeper will sound when the battery pack voltage drops to 32
volts. This will indicate that the battery pack has been
discharged to a level which may not power the outboard. Upon
beeper activation, it is recommended to reduce power (if
applicable), head immediately to shore, and charge the battery
pack.

cal speed when operating the
boat in reverse. Using high pow
er in REVERSE may force water
over the transom into the boat.
FORWARD (FWD) - To move the boat forward, press the
Ï
switch to the FORWARD
position.
REVERSE (REV) - To move the boat in reverse, press the
¼
switch to the REVERSE
position.
SPEED CONTROL
The speed control has various positions:
Ñ
STOP / RESET -
Ò
CRUISE -
¿
MAX POWER -
Twist SPEED CONTROL (or, turn dial on remote applications)
smoothly to increase speed.
The MAX POWER setting generally benefits the boater by
offering high thrust at low speeds and is not intended for
cruising. On average, operation at MAX POWER for long
periods of time will only increase boat speed by about 1 mph,
while greatly reducing run time and range.
SPEED CONTROL FRICTION ADJUSTMENT
On tiller equipped outboards only, this allows adjustment of the
speed control friction.

START / OPERATE THE MOTOR
1. Twist the SPEED CONTROL to the STOP/RESET
position.
2. Toggle the FORWARD/REVERSE switch to the direc
tion desired.
3. Toggle the ON/OFF switch to the ON position. Motor will
start.
4. Rotate the SPEED CONTROL until desired speed is
reached.
To Restart: the motor must be reset.
Note: SPEED CONTROL must be in the STOP/RE
SET position for the motor to start.
MOTOR RESET
If the propeller stops rotating during normal use, twist the
SPEED CONTROL to the STOP/RESET position. Then return
to operation as normal.
If this fails to reset the outboard, cycle the ON/OFF/BATTERY
TEST switch from OFF to ON, then operate as normal.
Situations that will cause a reset condition include, but are not
limited to:
• Obstructed propeller.
• Attempting the start procedure with the SPEED
CONTROL in any position other than STOP/RESET.
• Automatic return to OFF due to lack of use for 30 seconds.

STOPPING THE MOTOR
1. Twist the SPEED CONTROL to the STOP/RESET

2. Toggle the ON/OFF switch to the OFF position.
Note: After the last use of the day, press and hold the
battery test switch. Visually check the battery
gauge to determine the battery state of charge.
Disconnect the power harness from the out
board, then charge batteries as needed.
3. Remove the safety lanyard from the SAFETY/MOTOR
STOP switch.
SALTWATER OPERATION
The Briggs & Stratton Outboard is designed for freshwa
ter use. Operation in saltwater will result in accumulation of
corrosive deposits on exposed outboard parts. To inhibit
corrosion, take the following steps:
1. Remove the lower unit from the saltwater immediately.
2. Rinse the outboard thoroughly with fresh water and wipe
dry.
Saltwater is extremely corrosive even when these steps are
taken. Any component failure due to saltwater corrosion is
NOT covered under Briggs & Stratton Power Products
warranty.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING
Before performing any maintenance on the outboard,
disconnect the battery harness from the power receptacle,
and the safety lanyard from the SAFETY / MOTOR STOP
switch to prevent unintentional sparking or start up.
Unintentional start up can result in entanglement, traumat
ic amputation or laceration.
Regular maintenance will improve the performance and
extend the life of the outboard. See an Authorized Briggs &
Stratton Service Dealer for service.
Follow the hourly or calendar intervals, whichever occur first.
More frequent service is required when operating in adverse
conditions noted.
Every 8 hours or daily
D Check speed control for freedom of movement.
D Check outboard installation, and operation of pro
peller, steering handle, and starter.
Every 50 hours or every season
D Change gear case oil of lower unit.
