The operator
(driver) is responsible
for the correct and
safe operation
of the boat and safety of its occupants
and general
public.
It is strongly
recommended
that
each operator
manual before

(driver) read and understand
operating
the outboard.

USING AN OUTBOARD THAT EXCEEDS THE MAXIMUM HORSEPOWER
LIMIT OF A BOAT CAN:
1. CAUSE LOSS OF BOAT CONTROL, 2. PLACE TOO
MUCH WE|GHT AT THE TRANSOM ALTERING THE
DESIGNED
FLOTATION
CHARACTERISTICS

BEFORE OPERATING YOUR OUTBOARD
Read this manual carefully. Learn how to operate your
outboard properly. If you have any questions, contact
your nearest Sears Store which sells Gamefisher outboard motors.

NEVER OPERATE your motor at full throttle when the
engine is overloaded. This can occur under conditions
when a planing boat is loaded so it does not plane or
when towing another boat.

Safety and operating information that is practiced along
with using good common sense can help prevent personal injury and product damage.

• Some boats are extremely unstable in the water, even
when secured to a dock. Do not stand erect. Stay as
close as possible to centerline of boat while installing
motor.

This manual as well as safety labels posted on the outboard use the following safety alerts to draw your attention to special safety instructions that should be followed.

IMMEDIATE HAZARDS WHICH WILL RESULT
SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

• DO NOT store your motor or gasoline where fumes

OF ALL CONCEIVABLE

TYPES AND/OR
POOR OPERATING

PRACTICES,
THE FINAL DECISION
OF WHETHER
TO USE A LANYARD STOP SWITCH
RESTS WITH
YOU, THE

OWNER/DRIVER.

WE STRONGLY
RECOMMEND
THAT OTHER OCCUPANTS BE INSTRUCTED
ON PROPER
STARTING
AND OPERATING
PROCEDURES
SHOULD THEY BE
REQUIRED
TO OPERATE
THE OUTBOARD
AND
BOAT IN AN EMERGENCY.

THE FOLLOWING ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF A LANYARD STOP SWITCH SHOULD BE
CONSIDERED BEFORE ELECTING TO USE, OR NOT
TO USE, SUCH A SWITCH.
ADVANTAGES: THE PURPOSE OF A LANYARD STOP
SWITCH IS TO STOP THE ENGINE IGNITION WHENEVER THE OPERATOR (WHEN ATTACHED TO THE
LANYARD) MOVES FAR ENOUGH AWAY FROM THE
OPERATOR'S
POSITION
TO ACTIVATE
THE
SWITCH. THIS WOULD OCCUR IF THE OPERATOR
FALLS OR MOVES WITHIN THE BOAT A SUFFICIENT DISTANCE FROM THE OPERATOR'S POSITION. THIS TYPE OF ACCIDENT IS MOST LIKELY IN
CERTAIN TYPES OF BOATS SUCH AS LOW-SIDED
BASS BOATS, HIGH-PERFORMANCE
BOATS AND
LIGHT, SENSITIVE-HANDLING
FISHING BOATS
OPERATED BY HAND-TILLER. IT IS ALSO LIKELY AS
A RESULT OF POOR OPERATING PRACTICES SUCH
AS SITTING ON THE BACK OF THE SEAT AT PLANING SPEEDS, STANDING AT PLANING SPEEDS,
OPERATING AT HIGH SPEEDS IN SHALLOW OR
OBSTACLE-INFESTED WATERS, RELEASING YOUR
GRIP ON A STEERING WHEEL THAT IS PULLING IN
ONE DIRECTION,
DRINKING AND DRIVING OR
DARING, HIGH-SPEED BOAT MANEUVERS.

•

Recommended lubricant and gasoline must be properly
mixed or serious damage will result to the engine.

Use NMMA certified TC-W3 or TC-W II outboard oil.

GASOLINE

FUEL MIX

•

Maintain a clean fuel tank.

•

Strain fuel through a fine mesh strainer.

•

Pour one (1) gallon (38.1 cm) of fresh gasoline into an
empty fuel tank. Add proper amount of outboard motor oil. Add balance of gasoline, mix thoroughly.

SELECTION

•

87 pump octane minimum, premium not needed.

•

10% ethanol maximum.

•

3% methanol maximum.

•

Use a major fuel supplier.

IMPORTANT:
Experience
indicates that alcohol
blended fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or
methanol) can attract moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas
can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should
be emptied before storage for 30 days or longer. Drain
the gas tank, start the engine and let it run until the fuel
lines and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel next
season. See Storage Instructions for additional information. Never use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.

]

SEVERE DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE CAN RESULT
BY NOT COMPLYING
WITH THE FOLLOWING
BREAK-IN PROCEDURE.
• Mix correct amount of outboard motor oil with each
gallon of gasoline (see gasoline -- oil mixture requirements and fuel ratio conversion table).
• Run engine at moderate speed (approximately 1/2
throttle) for ten minutes. Check operation of the
water pump and cooling system. (Refer to "Checking
Water Pump Operation.")
• Advance to full throttle for a few seconds.
• Return to moderate speed for several minutes.
• Repeat steps 2 and 3 gradually increasing time of full
throttle operation until 5 minutes of full throttle operation has been reached. This break-in operation will
require approximately one (1) hour running time.
• Use the 25:1 gasoline-oil for an additional two (2)
hours before changing to the 50:1 mixture for normal
use.
• AVOID CONTINUOUS
FULL THROTTLE OPERATION FOR AN ADDITIONAL TWO (2) HOURS.
• Your outboard motor may now be operated at any
throttle setting desired using the proper fuel ratio as
specified in the gasoline-oil chart.

IMPORTANT:. TO AVOID MOTOR DAMAGE, THE MOTOR MUST BE RUNNING IN THE RIGHT OPERATING
RANGE AND THE PROPELLER MUST BE CORRECT FOR
THE BOAT. (SEE SPECIRCATIONS).

•

At wide open throttle check that motor R.P.M. is within
specifications.

•

Ifyour motorseems to be runningwell but is not in the
correct R.RM. range, you may need a propeller with
a different pitch (a smaller pitch increases R.P.M.
while a larger pitch decreases R.RM.). Consult your
Sears Store.

If you operate in very shallow water, you may plug the
water inlet with mud or debris which will cause your
motor to overheat.
Avoid shallow
water. If you must operate in shallow
water or in an area where there are known obstructions, use shallow water driver" bar (page 10).
If while operating
your boat the propeller
comes in
contact with fishing line, stop motor. Visually inspect
and remove any line that is wrapped around prop. As
soon as possible,
remove
engine from
water and
check gear housing for water which would indicate a
da_naged seal.

F__] Bilge is pumped and there are no water leaks.

[]

Passengers are safely on board.

[]

The area is clear for operation. Operator is aware of
other boats, skiers, divers, swimmers, etc.

OPERATION
SHAKEDOWN

IMPORTANT: IF THE MOTOR IS TILTED OUT OF THE
WATER, WATER REMAINING IN THE COOLING SYSTEM
AND GEAR HOUSING MAY FREEZE AND CAUSE PARTS
TO BREAK.

CHECKLIST

[]

[]

Adjust motor angle if necessary.

[]

Adjust idle if necessary.

•

Always tilt the motor out of the water when not in use.

[]

Adjust carburetor if necessary.

•

[]

Check that propeller is correct for boat.

From time to time run the motor in fresh water to flush
out salt deposits.

•

Wash motor down with fresh water and soap; rinse.
Apply a marine-type wax to protect the finish.

•

Periodically remove propeller and lubricate propeller
shaft.

•

Replace water pump impeller every year. Apply antiseize compound to the driveshaft/crankshaft spline.

•

SALT WATER OPERATION
Although all motor parts that contact water have been
chemically treated to resist salt water corrosion, you
should take some special steps after runningyour motor
in salt water.

PREPARATION

FOR

STORAGE

• We recommend
that your Sears Service Center prepare your motor for storage during the off season or
for long periods of time.

• The Service Center has the latest tools, materials and
information and can also carry out maintenance as
required.
• If your motor cannot be taken to your Sears Service
Center, follow the steps below to prevent rust and
damage from freezing temperatures.
IMPORTANT: IF GASOLINE MUST BE LEFT IN TANK,
USE A GASOLINE STABILIZER.
MIX STABILIZER
ACCORDING TO BOTTLE INSTRUCTIONS
DURING
EACH TANK FILL UP TO ASSURE THAT IT WILL BE
PRESENT DURING EACH STORAGE INTERVAL.

FIGURE 39

• Gasoline stabilizer helps prevent gum deposits from
forming in essential fuel system parts such as the
carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose, or tank during storage. Also, experience indicates that alcohol blended
fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol methanol) can
attract moisturewhich leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage
the fuel system of an engine while in storage.
• To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be
emptied before storage of 30 days or longer. Follow
these instructions.

AVOID SPILLING FUEL AND KEEP ALL SOURCES OF
HEAT, FLAME AND SPARKS AWAY WHEN DISCONNECTING, HANDLING OR STORING FUEL SYSTEM
COMPONENTS.
