The owner and operator should be familiar with all the instruments and their functions on the boat. Because of the large variety of instrumentation and manufacturers, have your boat dealer explain the gauges and normal readings that will appear on your boat. CMD-4081986 / 90-866839060 MAY 2007 Page 15 Section 2 - Getting to Know Your Power Package The following types of gauges may be included with your power package. a b c d e 26019 Typical gauges Reference Gauge Function a Oil pressure gauge Indicates engine oil pressure. b Battery meter Indicates battery voltage. c Coolant temperature gauge Indicates engine operating temperature. d Fuel gauge Indicates quantity of fuel in tank. e Power trim gauge Indicates sterndrive angle (trim up [out] and down [in]). Features and Controls Lanyard Stop Switch (If Equipped) The purpose of a lanyard stop switch is to turn off the engine when the operator moves outside the operator's position (as in accidental ejection from the operator's position). b a RUN c 74608 a - Stop switch b - Lanyard c - Clips to the operator Accidental ejections, such as falling overboard, are more likely to occur in: • low‑sided sport boats • bass boats • high‑performance boats Accidental ejections can also occur from: • poor operating practices • sitting on the seat or gunwale at planing speeds • standing at planing speeds Page 16 CMD-4081986 / 90-866839060 MAY 2007 Section 2 - Getting to Know Your Power Package • operating at planing speeds in shallow or obstacle infested waters • releasing your grip on the steering wheel that is pulling in one direction • consuming alcohol or drugs • high‑speed boating maneuvers Some remote control units are equipped with a lanyard stop switch, if your remote control is not equipped with a lanyard stop switch one can be installed on the dashboard or side adjacent to the operator's position. The lanyard is a cord usually between 122 and 152 cm (4 and 5 feet) in length when stretched out, with an element on one end made to be inserted into the switch and a snap on the other end for attaching to the operator. The lanyard is coiled to make its at‑rest condition as short as possible to minimize the likelihood of lanyard entanglement with nearby objects. Its stretched‑out length is made to minimize the likelihood of accidental activation should the operator choose to move around in an area close to the normal operator's position. If it is desired to have a shorter lanyard, wrap the lanyard around the operator's wrist or leg, or tie a knot in the lanyard. Activation of the lanyard stop switch will stop the engine immediately, but the boat will continue to coast for some distance depending upon the velocity and degree of any turn at shut down. However, the boat will not complete a full circle. While the boat is coasting, it can cause injury to anyone in the boat's path as seriously as the boat would when under power. We strongly recommend that other occupants be instructed on proper starting and operating procedures should they be required to operate the engine in an emergency (e.g. if the operator is accidentally ejected). ! WARNING If the operator falls out of the boat, stop the engine immediately to reduce the possibility of serious injury or death from being struck by the boat. Always properly connect the operator to the stop switch using a lanyard. Accidental or unintended activation of the switch during normal operation is also a possibility. This could cause any, or all, of the following potentially hazardous situations: • Occupants could be thrown forward due to unexpected loss of forward motion, a particular concern for passengers in the front of the boat who could be ejected over the bow and possibly struck by the propulsion or steering components. • Loss of power and directional control in heavy seas, strong current or high winds. • Loss of control when docking. ! WARNING Avoid serious injury or death from deceleration forces resulting from accidental or unintended stop switch activation. The boat operator should never leave the operator's station without first disconnecting the stop switch lanyard from the operator. Remote Controls Your boat may be equipped with Mercury Precision Parts or Quicksilver remote controls. All controls may not have all features shown. Consult your dealer for a description and/or demonstration of your remote control.

Trailer switch. Used to raise the sterndrive for trailering, launching, beaching, or shallow water operation. See Power Trim for detailed trailer switch operation. Power Trim Power trim allows the operator to adjust the sterndrive angle while underway to provide the ideal boat angle for varying load and water conditions. The trailer switch allows the operator to raise and lower the sterndrive for trailering, beaching, launching, low‑speed (below 1200 RPM engine speed), and shallow water operation. ! WARNING Excessive trim can cause serious injury or death at high speeds, and single‑ram trim systems do not provide a trim‑out limiting device or trim indicator. Use caution when trimming with a single‑ram trim system and never trim out beyond the unit's side support flanges while the boat is underway or at engine speeds above 1200 RPM. CMD-4081986 / 90-866839060 MAY 2007 Page 19 Section 2 - Getting to Know Your Power Package For best performance, trim the sterndrive so that the boat bottom is at a 3–5° angle to the water. 3-5 mc79528 Trimming the sterndrive up (out) has the following effects: • Generally increases top speed. • Increases clearance over submerged objects or a shallow bottom. • Causes the boat to accelerate and reach plane more slowly. • Causes porpoising (bouncing) or propeller ventilation if trimmed excessively. • Causes engine overheating if trimmed to a point where any cooling water intake holes are above the water line. mc78529 Trimming the sterndrive down (in) has the following effects: • Helps the boat accelerate and reach plane more quickly. • Generally improves the ride in choppy water. • Generally reduces boat speed. • If in excess, lower the bow of some boats to a point at which they begin to plow with their bow in the water while on plane. This can result in an unexpected turn in either direction called bow steering or over steering if any turn is attempted or if a significant wave is encountered. mc79530 SINGLE ENGINE TRIM AND TRAILER Single engine applications have a button to trim the sterndrive up (out) or down (in). To raise the sterndrive for trailering, beaching, launching, low‑speed (below 1200 RPM), and shallow water operation, push the trim button to raise the sterndrive to the full up (out) position. Some controls have a trailer button that trims the sterndrives to a position suitable only for hauling the boat by trailer. Page 20 CMD-4081986 / 90-866839060 MAY 2007 Section 2 - Getting to Know Your Power Package DUAL ENGINE TRIM AND TRAILER NOTICE If using external tie bars, raising or lowering the drives independently of each other can damage the drive and steering systems. If using an external tie bar, raise and lower all drives together as a unit. Dual‑engine applications may have a single integral button to operate both sterndrives simultaneously or separate button for each sterndrive. Some controls have a trailer button that trims the sterndrives to a position suitable only for hauling the boat by trailer. Electrical System Overload Protection If an electrical overload on the electrical system occurs, a fuse will burn out (blow). Find and correct the cause before replacing the fuse. NOTE: In an emergency, when the engine must be operated and the cause for the electrical overload, or excessive current draw, cannot be located and corrected, turn OFF or disconnect all accessories connected to the engine and instrumentation wiring. Replace the fuse. If the fuse burns out, the electrical overload has not been eliminated. Further checks must be made on the electrical system. Contact your authorized Cummins MerCruiser Diesel repair facility. 1.

Cummins MerCruiser Diesel strongly recommends that all powerboat operators complete a boating safety course. Courses are offered in the U.S.A. by the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary, the Power Squadron, the Red Cross, and your state or provincial boating law enforcement agency. Inquiries may be made to the Boating Hotline at 1‑800‑368‑5647 or the Boat U.S. Foundation at 1‑800‑336‑BOAT. • Perform safety checks and required maintenance. Follow a regular schedule and ensure that all repairs are properly made. • Check safety equipment on board. Here are some suggestions of the types of safety equipment to carry when boating: Approved fire extinguishers Paddle or oar Signal devices: flashlight, rockets or flares, flag, and whistle or horn Transistor radio Tools necessary for minor repairs First aid kit and instructions Anchor and extra anchor line Waterproof storage containers Manual bilge pump and extra drain plugs Spare operating equipment, batteries, bulbs, and fuses Drinking water Compass and map or chart of the area • • • • • • Page 24 Watch for signs of weather change and avoid foul weather and rough-sea boating. Tell someone where you are going and when you expect to return. Passenger boarding. Stop the engine whenever passengers are boarding, unloading, or are near the back (stern) of the boat. Shifting the drive unit into neutral is not sufficient. Use personal flotation devices. Federal law requires that there be a U. S. Coast Guard–approved, wearable‑type life jacket (personal flotation device), correctly sized and readily accessible for every person aboard, plus a throwable cushion or ring. We strongly advise that everyone wear a life jacket at all times while in the boat. Prepare other boat operators. Instruct at least one person aboard in the basics of starting and operating the engine and handling the boat in case the driver becomes disabled or falls overboard. Do not overload your boat. Most boats are rated and certified for maximum load (weight) capacities (refer to your boat capacity plate). Know your boat’s operating and loading limitations. Know if your boat will float if full of water. When in doubt, contact your authorized Cummins MerCruiser Diesel dealer/distributor or the boat manufacturer. CMD-4081986 / 90-866839060 MAY 2007 Section 3 - On the Water • • • • • • • Ensure that everyone in the boat is properly seated. Do not allow anyone to sit or ride on any part of the boat that was not intended for such use. This includes the backs of seats, gunwales, transom, bow, decks, raised fishing seats, and any rotating fishing seat; anywhere that sudden unexpected acceleration, sudden stopping, unexpected loss of boat control or sudden boat movement could cause a person to be thrown overboard or into the boat. Ensure that all passengers have a proper seat and are in it before any boat movement. Never be under the influence of alcohol or drugs while boating (it is the law). Alcohol or drugs impairs your judgment and greatly reduce your ability to react quickly. Know your boating area and avoid hazardous locations. Be alert. The operator of the boat is responsible by law to maintain a proper lookout by sight and hearing. The operator must have an unobstructed view particularly to the front. No passengers, load, or fishing seats should block the operator's view when operating the boat above idle or planing transition speed. Watch out for others, keep your eyes on the the water, and be aware of your wake. Never drive your boat directly behind a water skier in case the skier falls. As an example, your boat traveling at 40 km/h (25 MPH) will overtake a fallen skier who was 61 m (200 ft.) in front of you in five seconds. Watch fallen skiers. When using your boat for water skiing or similar activities, always keep a fallen or down skier on the operator’s side of the boat while returning to attend to the skier. The operator should always have the down skier in sight and never back up to the skier or anyone in the water. Report accidents. Boat operators are required by law to file a Boating Accident Report with their state boating law enforcement agency when their boat is involved in certain boating accidents. A boating accident must be reported if 1) there is loss of life or probable loss of life, 2) there is personal injury requiring medical treatment beyond first aid, 3) there is damage to boats or other property where the damage value exceeds US $500.00 or 4) there is complete loss of the boat. Seek further assistance from local law enforcement. Be Alert To Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Carbon monoxide is present in the exhaust fumes of all internal combustion engines including the outboards, sterndrives and inboard engines that propel boats, as well as the generators that power various boat accessories. Carbon monoxide is a deadly gas that is odorless, colorless and tasteless. Early symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning, which should not be confused with seasickness or intoxication, include headache, dizziness, drowsiness and nausea. ! WARNING Carbon monoxide poisoning can lead to unconsciousness, brain damage, or death. Keep the boat well ventilated while at rest or underway and avoid prolonged exposure to carbon monoxide. GOOD VENTILATION Ventilate the passenger area, open the side curtains or forward hatches to remove fumes. 1. Example of desired air flow through the boat. mc79553-1 CMD-4081986 / 90-866839060 MAY 2007 Page 25 Section 3 - On the Water POOR VENTILATION Under certain conditions, permanently enclosed or canvas enclosed cabins or cockpits with insufficient ventilation may draw in carbon monoxide. Install one or more carbon monoxide detectors in your boat. Although the occurrence is rare, on a very calm day, swimmers and passengers in an open area of a stationary boat that contains or is near an operating engine may be exposed to a hazardous level of carbon monoxide. 1. Examples of poor ventilation while a boat is stationary: a b a - Operating the engine when the boat is moored in a confined space mc79554-1 b - Mooring close to another boat with its engine operating 2. Examples of poor ventilation while a boat is moving: a a - Operating the boat with the trim angle of the bow too high mc79556-1 b b - Operating the boat with no forward hatches open (station wagon effect) Basic Boat Operation Launching and Boat Operation IMPORTANT: Install bilge drain plug prior to launching boat. Starting the Engine After Stopped While in Gear IMPORTANT: Avoid stopping the engine if the sterndrive is in gear. If the engine does stop with the sterndrive in gear, see the following procedure: 1. Push and pull repeatedly on the remote control handle until the handle returns to the neutral detent position. This may take several tries if the power package was operating above idle RPM when the engine stopped. 2. After the handle returns to the neutral detent position, resume normal starting procedures. Freezing Temperature Operation IMPORTANT: If the boat is operated during periods of freezing temperature, take precautions to prevent freeze damage to the power package. Damage caused by freezing is not covered by the Cummins MerCruiser Diesel Limited Warranty. Drain Plug and Bilge Pump The engine compartment in your boat is a natural place for water to collect. For this reason, boats are normally equipped with a drain plug or a bilge pump. It is very important to check these items on a regular basis to ensure that the water level does not come into contact with your power package. Components on your engine will be damaged if submerged. Damage caused by submersion is not covered by the Mercury MerCruiser or Cummins MerCruiser Diesel Limited Warranty. Page 26 CMD-4081986 / 90-866839060 MAY 2007 Section 3 - On the Water Trailering the Boat Your boat can be trailered with the sterndrive in the up (out) or down (in) position. Adequate clearance is required between the road and sterndrive when transporting. If adequate road clearance is a problem, place the sterndrive in full trailer position and support it with an optional trailer kit, which is available from your Cummins MerCruiser Diesel Authorized Repair Facility. Protecting People In The Water WHILE YOU ARE CRUISING It is very difficult for a person in the water to take quick action to avoid a boat heading in their direction, even at slow speeds. 21604 Always slow down and exercise extreme caution any time you are boating in an area where there might be people in the water. Whenever a boat is moving (even coasting) and the gear shift is in neutral, there is sufficient force by the water on the propeller to cause the propeller to rotate. This neutral propeller rotation can cause serious injury. WHILE BOAT IS STATIONARY ! WARNING A spinning propeller, a moving boat, or any solid device attached to the boat can cause serious injury or death to swimmers. Stop the engine immediately whenever anyone in the water is near your boat. Shift into neutral and shut off the engine before allowing people to swim or be in the water near your boat. High‑Speed and High‑Performance If your boat is considered a high‑speed or high‑performance boat with which you are unfamiliar, we recommend that you never operate it at its high‑speed capability without first requesting an initial orientation and demonstration ride with your dealer or an operator experienced with your boat. For additional information, refer to the Hi-Performance Boat Operation booklet (90‑849250‑R03) from your Cummins MerCruiser Diesel Authorized Repair Facility. Passenger Safety In Pontoon Boats And Deck Boats Whenever the boat is in motion, observe the location of all passengers. Do not allow any passengers to stand or use seats other than those designated for traveling faster than idle speed. A sudden reduction in boat speed, such as plunging into a large wave or wake, a sudden throttle reduction, or a sharp change of boat direction, could throw them over the front of boat. Falling over the front of the boat between the two pontoons will position them to be run over. CMD-4081986 / 90-866839060 MAY 2007 Page 27 Section 3 - On the Water BOATS HAVING AN OPEN FRONT DECK No one should ever be on the deck in front of the rail while the boat is in motion. Keep all passengers behind the front rail or enclosure. Persons on the front deck could easily be thrown overboard or persons dangling their feet over the front edge could get their legs caught by a wave and pulled into the water. mc79555-1 ! WARNING Sitting or standing in an area of the boat not designed for passengers at speeds above idle can cause serious injury or death. Stay back from the front end of deck boats or raised platforms and remain seated while the boat is in motion. BOATS WITH FRONT-MOUNTED, RAISED PEDESTAL FISHING SEATS Elevated fishing seats are not intended for use when the boat is traveling faster than idle or trolling speed. Sit only in seats designated for traveling at faster speeds. Any unexpected, sudden reduction in boat speed could result in the elevated passenger falling over the front of the boat. mc79557-1 Wave And Wake Jumping ! WARNING Wave or wake jumping can cause serious injury or death from occupants being thrown within or out of the boat. Avoid wave or wake jumping whenever possible. mc79680-1 Operating recreational boats over waves and wakes is a natural part of boating. However, when this activity is done with enough speed to force the boat hull partially or completely out of the water, certain hazards arise, particularly when the boat re‑enters the water. The primary concern is the boat changing direction while in the midst of the jump. In such cases the landing may cause the boat to violently veer in a new direction. Such a sharp change in direction or turn can cause occupants to be thrown out of their seats or out of the boat. Page 28 CMD-4081986 / 90-866839060 MAY 2007 Section 3 - On the Water There is another less common hazardous result from allowing your boat to launch off of a wave or wake. If the bow of your boat pitches down far enough while airborne, upon water contact it may penetrate under the water surface and submarine for an instant. This will bring the boat nearly to a stop in an instant and can send the occupants flying forward. The boat may also veer sharply to one side. Impact with Underwater Hazards Reduce speed and proceed with caution whenever you're driving a boat in shallow water or in areas where the waters are suspected of having underwater obstacles that could be struck by the underwater drive components, rudder, or the boat bottom. mc79679-1 IMPORTANT: The most important thing you can do to help reduce injury or impact damage from striking a floating or underwater object is control the boat speed. Under these conditions, boat speed should be kept to a maximum speed of 24 to 40 km/h (15 to 25 MPH). The following demonstrate some, but not all, examples of what can happen if the boat strikes an object: • The boat could move suddenly in a new direction. Such a sharp change in direction or turn can throw occupants out of their seats or out of the boat. • A rapid reduction in speed. This will cause occupants to be thrown forward, even out of the boat. • Impact damage to the underwater drive components, rudder, or boat. Keep in mind that one of the most important things you can do to help reduce injury or impact damage in these situations is control the boat speed. Boat speed should be kept to a minimum planing speed when driving in waters known to have underwater obstacles. After striking a submerged object, stop the engine as soon as possible and inspect the drive system for any broken or loose parts. If damage is present or suspected, the power package should be taken to an authorized Cummins MerCruiser Diesel repair facility for a thorough inspection and any necessary repair. The boat should be checked for hull fractures, transom fractures, and water leaks. Operating with damaged underwater drive components, rudder, or boat bottom could cause additional damage to other parts of the power package, or could affect control of the boat. If continued operation is necessary, do so at greatly reduced speeds. ! WARNING Operating a boat or engine with impact damage can result in product damage, serious injury, or death. If the vessel experiences any form of impact, have an authorized Mercury Marine dealer inspect and repair the vessel or power package. CMD-4081986 / 90-866839060 MAY 2007 Page 29 Section 3 - On the Water STERNDRIVE IMPACT PROTECTION The power trim hydraulic system is designed to provide impact protection for the sterndrive. If a submerged object is struck while the boat is moving forward, the hydraulic system will cushion the kickup of the sterndrive as it clears the object, reducing damage to the sterndrive. After the sterndrive has cleared the object, the hydraulic system allows the sterndrive to return to its original operating position, preventing loss of steering control and engine overspeed. Use extreme caution when operating in shallow water or where underwater objects are known to be present. No impact protection is provided in reverse; use extreme care to prevent striking submerged objects while operating in reverse. IMPORTANT: Impact protection system cannot be designed to ensure total protection from impact damage under all conditions. Conditions Affecting Operation Weight Distribution (Passengers and Gear) Inside the Boat Shifting weight to rear (stern): • Generally increases speed and engine RPM • Causes bow to bounce in choppy water • Increases danger of following wave splashing into the boat when coming off plane • At extremes, can cause the boat to porpoise Shifting weight to front (bow): • Improves ease of planing • Improves rough water ride • At extremes, can cause the boat to veer back and forth (bow steer) Bottom of Boat To maintain maximum speed, ensure that the boat bottom is: • Clean, free of barnacles and marine growth. • Free of distortion, nearly flat where it contacts water. • Straight and smooth, fore and aft. Marine vegetation may accumulate when the boat is docked. This growth must be removed before operation; it may clog water inlets and cause the engine to overheat. Cavitation Cavitation occurs when water flow cannot follow the contour of a fast‑moving underwater object, such as a gear housing or a propeller. Cavitation permits the propeller to speed up, but the boat speed to reduce. Cavitation can seriously erode the surface of the gear housing or the propeller. Common causes of cavitation are: • Weeds or other debris snagged on the propeller • Bent propeller blade • Raised burrs or sharp edges on the propeller Ventilation Ventilation is caused by surface air or exhaust gases that are introduced around the propeller resulting in propeller speed‑up and a reduction in boat speed. Air bubbles strike the propeller blade and cause erosion of the blade surface. If allowed to continue, eventual blade failure (breakage) will occur. Excessive ventilation is usually caused by: • Drive unit trimmed out too far. Page 30 CMD-4081986 / 90-866839060 MAY 2007 Section 3 - On the Water • • • A missing propeller diffuser ring. A damaged propeller or gear housing, which allows exhaust gases to escape between propeller and gear housing. Drive unit installed too high on transom. Elevation and Climate NOTE: Engines equipped with an Engine Control Module (ECM) reduce the effects of changes in elevation and climate by automatically adjusting fuel flow for weather conditions and elevation. ECM controlled engines, however, do not compensate for increased loading or hull conditions. Elevation and climate changes affect the performance of your power package. Loss of performance can be caused by: • High elevations • High temperatures • Low barometric pressures • High humidity For optimum engine performance under changing weather conditions and high elevation, use a propeller that allows the engine to operate at rated RPM at wide open throttle (WOT) with a maximum boat load during your normal boating. In most cases, the rated RPM at WOT can be achieved by changing to a lower pitch propeller. Propeller Selection NOTICE Operating the engine with the wrong propeller installed can limit power, increase fuel consumption, overheat the engine, or cause internal powerhead damage. Choose a propeller that allows the engine to operate at the specified wide open throttle RPM. The boat manufacturer and the selling dealer are responsible to equip the power package with the correct propeller. Refer to the Diesel Parts And Accessories Guide and read Everything You Need To Know About Propellers. Refer to the engine manufacturer or manufacturer's operation manual for the specified engine rated RPM. Select a propeller that allows the engine power package to operate at the engine rated RPM with a full load. Do not consider high RPM caused by excessive trim angle in selecting the correct propeller. NOTE: Use an accurate service tachometer to verify RPM. If WOT is below the engine rated RPM, change the propeller to prevent loss of performance and possible engine damage. Operating the engine above the engine rated RPM will cause higher than normal wear or damage. After initial propeller selection, the following common problems may require that the propeller be changed to a lower pitch: • RPM loss caused by warmer weather and greater humidity (not as significant on these models). • RPM loss caused by operating in a higher elevation (not as significant on these models). • RPM loss caused by operating with a damaged propeller or dirty boat bottom. • Loss of speed caused by operating with increased load (additional passengers, pulling skiers). CMD-4081986 / 90-866839060 MAY 2007 Page 31 Section 3 - On the Water Because many design variables affect a boats performance, test the boat to determine the best propeller for a particular application. Refer to Diesel Sterndrive Bravo Models Installation Manual, and complete Boat in the Water—Wide Open Throttle Test. Getting Started Sterndrive 10‑Hour Break‑In Period (New or With Replacement Gears) It is important that the following procedure be used on new sterndrives and rebuilt sterndrives with new replacement gears. This break‑in procedure allows the proper seating of the sterndrive gears and related components, which greatly reduces the likelihood of problems. • Avoid full throttle starts. • Do not operate at any one constant speed for extended periods of time. • Do not exceed 75% of full throttle during the first 5 hours. During the next 5 hours, operate at intermittent full throttle. • The sterndrive should be shifted into forward gear a minimum of 10 times during break‑in, with run‑in time at moderate RPM after each shift. End of First Season Checkup At the end of the first season of operation, contact a Cummins MerCruiser Diesel Authorized Repair Facility to discuss or perform scheduled maintenance items. If you are in an area where the product is operated continuously, year‑round, you should contact your dealer at the end of the first 100 hours of operation or once yearly, whichever occurs first.

Normal maintenance service and replacement parts are the responsibility of the owner or operator and as such, are not considered defects in workmanship or material within the terms of the warranty. Individual operating habits and usage contribute to the need for maintenance service. Proper maintenance and care of your power package will ensure optimum performance and dependability and will keep your overall operating expenses at a minimum. See your Cummins MerCruiser Diesel Authorized Repair Facility for service aids. Dealer Responsibilities In general, a dealer's responsibilities to the customer include predelivery inspection and preparation such as: • Make certain that the power package and other equipment are in proper operating condition before delivery. • Make all necessary adjustments for maximum efficiency. • Explain and demonstrate the operation of the power package and boat. • Provide you with a copy of a Predelivery Inspection Checklist. • Fill out the Warranty Registration Card completely and mail it to the factory immediately upon sale of the new product. All power packages must be registered for warranty purposes. Do‑It‑Yourself Maintenance Suggestions Present day marine equipment, such as your Cummins MerCruiser Dieael power package, are highly technical pieces of machinery. Electronic ignition and special fuel delivery systems provide greater fuel economies, but also are more complex for the untrained mechanic. If you like to do it yourself, here are some suggestions for you. • Do not attempt any repairs unless you are aware of the cautions, warnings, and procedures required. Your safety is our concern. • If you attempt to service the product yourself, we suggest you order the service manual for that model. The service manual outlines the correct procedures to follow. It is written for the trained mechanic, so there may be procedures you don't understand. Do not attempt repairs if you do not understand the procedures. • There are special tools and equipment that are required to perform some repairs. Do not attempt these repairs unless you have these special tools or equipment. You can cause damage to the product in excess of the cost a dealer would charge you. • Also, if you partially disassemble an engine or drive assembly and are unable to repair it, the dealer's mechanic must reassemble the components and test to determine the problem. This will cost you more than taking it to the dealer immediately upon having a problem. It may be a very simple adjustment to correct the problem. • Do not telephone the dealer, service office, or the factory to attempt for them to diagnose a problem or to request the repair procedure. It is difficult for them to diagnose a problem over the telephone. Page 38 CMD-4081986 / 90-866839060 MAY 2007 Section 5 - Maintenance Your Authorized Cummins MerCruiser Diesel repair facility is there to service your power package. They have qualified factory trained mechanics. It is recommended you have the local Authorized Cummins MerCruiser Diesel repair facility do periodic maintenance checks on your power package. Have them winterize it in the fall and service it before the boating season. This will reduce the possibility of any problems occurring during your boating season when you want trouble free boating pleasure. Inspection Inspect your power package often and at regular intervals to help maintain its top operating performance and correct potential problems before they occur. The entire power package should be checked carefully, including all accessible engine parts. • Check for loose, damaged, or missing parts, hoses, and clamps; tighten or replace as necessary. • Check electrical connections and leads for damage. • Remove and inspect the propeller. If badly nicked, bent, or cracked, contact your Authorized Cummins MerCruiser Diesel repair facility. • Repair nicks and corrosion damage on the power package exterior finish.

However, individual operating habits and personal preferences can have an impact on the suggested intervals. We have adjusted some maintenance intervals and their corresponding tasks to allow for these differences. In some cases these changes allow for more individual tasks in a single visit to the servicing dealer. Therefore, it is very important that the boat owner and the servicing dealer discuss the current maintenance schedule and develop appropriate maintenance intervals to coincide with individual operating habits, the environment, and maintenance preferences. !

Operate the engine at idle speed in neutral for about ten minutes or until the discharge water is clear. 13. Stop the engine. 14. Shut off the supply water and remove the flushing attachment. 15. Install the propeller. See Propellers. 16. Prepare the engine and sterndrive for normal operation. Corrosion Protection General Information Whenever two or more dissimilar metals (such as those found on this power package) are submerged in a conductive solution such as saltwater, polluted water, or water with a high mineral content, a chemical reaction takes place causing electrical current to flow between metals. The electrical current flow causes the metal that is most chemically active, or anodic, to erode. This erosion is known as galvanic corrosion and, if it is not controlled, it will eventually cause the need for replacement of power package components exposed to water. To help control the effects of galvanic corrosion, Cummins MerCruiser Diesel power packages come with several sacrificial anodes and other corrosion protection devices. For a more comprehensive explanation of corrosion and corrosion protection refer to the Marine Corrosion Protection Guide (90‑88181301). IMPORTANT: Replace sacrificial anodes if eroded 50% or more. Cummins MerCruiser Diesel strongly recommends avoiding the use of anodes from another manufacturer. Refer to your Cummins MerCruiser Diesel Authorized Repair Facility for additional information.

Paint the power package. See Painting Your Power Package. 2. Annually spray the power package components on the inside of the boat with Corrosion Guard to protect the finish from dulling and corrosion. You may also spray external power package components. 3. Keep all lubrication points, especially the steering system, shift, and throttle linkages, well lubricated. 4. Flush the cooling system periodically, preferably after each use. Continuity Circuit—Bravo Sterndrive The transom assembly and sterndrive have ground‑circuit wires to ensure good electrical continuity between the engine, transom assembly, and sterndrive components. Good continuity to a ground is essential for the anode and MerCathode system to function effectively. 1. Inspect the steering lever ground wire for loose connections, broken connectors, or frayed wiring. 2.

Reference Electrode 91‑76675T 1 Senses and electrical current in the water when testing the MerCathode system. Use to check hull potential. 9188 Refer to the appropriate Mercury MerCruiser Sterndrive Service Manual for testing procedures. Boat Bottom Care To achieve maximum performance and fuel economy, the boat bottom must be kept clean. Accumulation of marine growth or other foreign matter can greatly reduce boat speed and increase fuel consumption. To ensure best performance and efficiency, periodically clean the boat bottom in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations. Page 60 CMD-4081986 / 90-866839060 MAY 2007 Section 5 - Maintenance In some areas, it may be advisable to paint the bottom to help prevent marine growth. Refer to the following information for special notes about the use of anti‑fouling paints. Painting Your Power Package IMPORTANT: Corrosion damage that results from the improper application of anti‑fouling paint will not be covered by the limited warranty. 1. Painting the boat hull or transom: you may apply anti‑fouling paint to the boat hull and transom. However, observe the following: IMPORTANT: Do not paint anodes or MerCathode System reference electrode and anode. Paint will render them ineffective as inhibitors of galvanic corrosion. IMPORTANT: If anti‑fouling protection is required for the boat hull or transom, you can use copper‑based or tin‑based paints where not prohibited by law. If using copper‑based or tin‑based anti‑fouling paints, observe the following: • Avoid any electrical interconnection between the paint and the Mercury MerCruiser product, anodic blocks, or MerCathode system by allowing a minimum of 40 mm (1‑1/2 in.) unpainted area on the transom of the boat around these items. a b 5578 a - Painted boat transom b - Unpainted Area on Transom 2. Painting the sterndrive unit or transom assembly: The sterndrive unit and transom assembly should be painted with a good‑quality marine paint or an anti‑fouling paint that does not contain copper, tin, or any other material that could conduct electrical current. Do not paint drain holes, anodes, MerCathode system, or items specified by the boat manufacturer.

WARNING Avoid fire or explosion hazard. Electrical, ignition, and fuel system components on Cummins MerCruiser Diesel products comply with U.S. Coast Guard rules to minimize risk of fire or explosion. Do not use replacement electrical or fuel system components that do not comply with these rules. When servicing the electrical and fuel systems, properly install and tighten all components. Marine engines are expected to operate at or near full throttle for most of their life. They are also expected to operate in both fresh and saltwater environments. These conditions require numerous special parts. Exercise care when replacing marine engine parts, as specifications are quite different from those of the standard automotive engine. Since marine engines must be capable of running at or near maximum RPM much of the time, special pistons, camshafts, and other heavy‑duty moving parts are required for long life and peak performance. These are but a few of the many special modifications that are required in Cummins MerCruiser Diesel marine engines to provide long life and dependable performance.
