Operation

NOTE:

● It is not necessary to use the choke when

starting a warm engine.

● If the choke knob is left in the pulled out po-

sition while the engine is running, the en-

gine will run poorly or stall.

5. Pull the manual starter handle slowly until

you feel resistance. Then give a strong

pull straight out to crank and start the en-

gine. Repeat if necessary.

6. After the engine starts, slowly return the

manual starter handle to its original posi-

tion before releasing it.

7. Slowly return the throttle grip to the fully

closed position.

NOTE:

● When the engine is cold, it needs to be

warmed up. For further information, see

page 23.

● If the engine does not start on the first try,

repeat the procedure. If the engine fails to

start after 4 or 5 tries, open the throttle a

small amount (between 1/8 and 1/4) and try

again. Also if the engine is warm and fails to

start, open the throttle a same amount and

try to start the engine again. If the engine

still fails to start, see page 45.

Choke start models

1. After starting the engine, allow it to idle for

3 minutes to warm up. Failure to do so will

shorten engine life. Gradually return the

choke knob to its home position as the

engine warms up.

2. Check for a steady flow of water from the

cooling water pilot hole.

CAUTION:

ECM00510

A flow of water from the hole on the ex-

haust cover shows that the water pump is

pumping water through the cooling pas-

sages. If water is not flowing out of the

hole at all times while the engine is run-

ning, overheating and serious damage

could occur. Stop the engine and check

whether the cooling water inlet on the low-

er case or the cooling water pilot hole is

blocked. Consult your Yamaha dealer if

the problem cannot be located and cor-

rected.
