Safety information� Before mounting or operating the outboard
motor, read this entire manual. Reading itshould give you an understanding of themotor and its operation.
� Before operating the boat, read any own-er’s or operator’s manuals supplied with itand all labels. Be sure you understand eachitem before operating.
� Do not overpower the boat with this out-board motor. Overpowering the boat couldresult in loss of control. The rated power ofthe outboard should be equal to or less thanthe rated horsepower capacity of the boat.If the rated horsepower capacity of the boatis unknown, consult the dealer or boat man-ufacturer.
� Do not modify the outboard. Modificationscould make the motor unfit or unsafe to use.
� Never operate after drinking alcohol or tak-ing drugs. About 50% of all boating fatalitiesinvolve intoxication.
� Have an approved personal flotation device(PFD) on board for every occupant. It is agood idea to wear a PFD whenever boat-ing. At a minimum, children and non-swim-mers should always wear PFDs, and
everyone should wear PFDs when thereare potentially hazardous boating condi-tions.
� Gasoline is highly flammable, and its va-pors are flammable and explosive. Handleand store gasoline carefully. Make surethere are no gas fumes or leaking fuel be-fore starting the engine.
� This product emits exhaust gases whichcontain carbon monoxide, a colorless,odorless gas which may cause brain dam-age or death when inhaled. Symptoms in-clude nausea, dizziness, and drowsiness.Keep cockpit and cabin areas well ventilat-ed. Avoid blocking exhaust outlets.
� Check throttle, shift, and steering for properoperation before starting the engine.
� Attach the engine stop switch lanyard to asecure place on your clothing, or your armor leg while operating. If you accidentallyleave the helm, the lanyard will pull from theswitch, stopping the engine.
� Know the marine laws and regulationswhere you will be boating - and obey them.
� Stay informed about the weather. Checkweather forecasts before boating. Avoidboating in hazardous weather.
� Tell someone where you are going: leave aFloat Plan with a responsible person. Besure to cancel the Float Plan when you re-turn.
� Use common sense and good judgmentwhen boating. Know your abilities, and besure you understand how your boat han-dles under the different boating conditionsyou may encounter. Operate within yourlimits, and the limits of your boat. Alwaysoperate at safe speeds, and keep a carefulwatch for obstacles and other traffic.
� Always watch carefully for swimmers duringthe engine operation.

WARNINGEWM00010
GASOLINE AND ITS VAPORS ARE HIGH-LY FLAMMABLE AND EXPLOSIVE!� Do not smoke when refueling, and keep
away from sparks, flames, or othersources of ignition.
� Stop engine before refueling.� Refuel in a well-ventilated area. Refuel
portable fuel tanks off the boat.
� Take care not to spill gasoline. If gaso-line spills, wipe it up immediately withdry rags.
� Do not overfill the fuel tank.� Tighten the filler cap securely after refu-
eling.� If you should swallow some gasoline, in-
hale a lot of gasoline vapor, or get gaso-line in your eyes, get immediate medicalattention.
� If any gasoline spills onto your skin, im-mediately wash with soap and water.Change clothing if gasoline spills on it.
� Touch the fuel nozzle to the filler open-ing or funnel to help prevent electrostat-ic sparks.
CAUTION:ECM00010
Use only new clean gasoline which hasbeen stored in clean containers and is notcontaminated with water or foreign matter.

Battery requirement
CAUTION:ECM01060
Do not use a battery that does not meet thespecified capacity. If a battery which doesnot meet specifications is used, the elec-tric system could perform poorly or beoverloaded, causing electric system dam-age.
For electric start models, choose a batterywhich meets the following specifications.
EMU25720
Battery specifications
NOTE:The engine cannot be started if battery volt-age is too low.
EMU25742
Propeller selectionThe performance of your outboard motor willbe critically affected by your choice of propel-ler, as an incorrect choice could adversely af-fect performance and could also seriouslydamage the motor. Engine speed depends onthe propeller size and boat load. If enginespeed is too high or too low for good engineperformance, this will have an adverse effecton the engine.Selva outboard motors are fitted with pro-pellers chosen to perform well over a range ofapplications, but there may be uses where apropeller with a different pitch would be moreappropriate. For a greater operating load, asmaller-pitch propeller is more suitable as itenables the correct engine speed to be main-tained. Conversely, a larger-pitch propeller ismore suitable for a smaller operating load.Selva dealers stock a range of propellers,and can advise you and install a propeller onyour outboard that is best suited to your appli-cation.

Minimum cold cranking amps (CCA/EN):430.0 A
Minimum rated capacity (20HR/IEC):70.0 Ah

NOTE:Select a propeller which will allow the engineto reach the middle or upper half of the oper-ating range at full throttle with the maximumboat load. If operating conditions such as lightboat loads then allow the engine r/min to riseabove the maximum recommended range, re-duce the throttle setting to maintain the en-gine in the proper operating range.
For instructions on propeller removal and in-stallation, see page 45.
EMU25760
Start-in-gear protectionSelva outboard motors affixed with the pic-tured label or Selva-approved remote con-trol units are equipped with start-in-gearprotection device(s). This feature permits theengine to be started only when it is in neutral.Always select neutral before starting the en-gine.

CAUTION:ECM00110
Incorrect engine height or obstructions tosmooth water flow (such as the design orcondition of the boat, or accessories suchas transom ladders or depth finder trans-ducers) can create airborne water spraywhile the boat is cruising. Severe enginedamage may result if the motor is operat-ed continuously in the presence of air-borne water spray.
NOTE:During water testing check the buoyancy ofthe boat, at rest, with its maximum load.Check that the static water level on the ex-haust housing is low enough to prevent waterentry into the powerhead, when water risesdue to waves when the outboard is not run-ning.

Mounting the outboard motor
WARNINGEWM00820
� Overpowering a boat could cause se-vere instability. Do not install an out-board motor with more horsepower thanthe maximum rating on the capacityplate of the boat. If the boat does nothave a capacity plate, consult the boatmanufacturer.
� The information presented in this sec-tion is intended as reference only. It isnot possible to provide complete in-structions for every possible boat andmotor combination. Proper mountingdepends in part on experience and thespecific boat and motor combination.
WARNINGEWM00830
Improper mounting of the outboard motorcould result in hazardous conditions suchas poor handling, loss of control, or firehazards. Observe the following:� For permanently mounted models, your
dealer or other person experienced inproper rigging should mount the motor.If you are mounting the motor yourself,you should be trained by an experiencedperson.
� For portable models, your dealer or oth-er person experienced in proper out-board motor mounting should show youhow to mount your motor.
Mount the outboard motor on the center line(keel line) of the boat, and ensure that theboat itself is well balanced. Otherwise theboat will be hard to steer. For boats without akeel or which are asymmetrical, consult yourdealer.
EMU26930
Mounting height (boat bottom)To run your boat at optimum efficiency, thewater resistance (drag) of the boat and out-board motor must be made as little as possi-ble. The mounting height of the outboardmotor greatly affects the water resistance. Ifthe mounting height is too high, cavitation

tends to occur, thus reducing the propulsion;and if the propeller tips cut the air, the enginespeed will rise abnormally and cause the en-gine to overheat. If the mounting height is toolow, the water resistance will increase andthereby reduce engine efficiency. Mount theoutboard motor so that the anti-cavitationplate is in alignment with the bottom of theboat.
NOTE:� The optimum mounting height of the out-
board motor is affected by the boat/motorcombination and the desired use. Test runsat different heights can help determine theoptimum mounting height. Consult yourSelva dealer or boat manufacturer forfurther information on determining the prop-er mounting height.

Adjust the outboard motor trim angle usingthe power trim and tilt switch.
To raise the bow (trim-out), press the switch“ ” (up).To lower the bow (trim-in), press the switch“ ” (down).Make test runs with the trim set to different an-gles to find the position that works best foryour boat and operating conditions.
NOTE:To adjust the trim angle while the boat is mov-ing, use the power trim and tilt switch locatedon the remote control device or tiller handle, ifequipped.
EMU27911
Adjusting boat trimWhen the boat is on plane, a bow-up attituderesults in less drag, greater stability and effi-ciency. This is generally when the keel line ofthe boat is up about 3 to 5 degrees. With thebow up, the boat may have a greater tenden-cy to steer to one side or the other. Compen-sate for this as you steer. The trim tab canalso be adjusted to help offset this effect.When the bow of the boat is down, it is easierto accelerate from a standing start onto plane.

Bow UpToo much trim-out puts the bow of the boattoo high in the water. Performance and econ-omy are decreased because the hull of theboat is pushing the water and there is more airdrag. Excessive trim-out can also cause thepropeller to ventilate, which reduces perfor-mance further, and the boat may “porpoise”(hop in the water), which could throw the op-erator and passengers overboard.
Bow DownToo much trim-in causes the boat to “plow”through the water, decreasing fuel economyand making it hard to increase speed. Operat-ing with excessive trim-in at higher speedsalso makes the boat unstable. Resistance atthe bow is greatly increased, heightening thedanger of “bow steering” and making opera-tion difficult and dangerous.
NOTE:Depending on the type of boat, the outboardmotor trim angle may have little effect on thetrim of the boat when operating.

� USE CARE when transporting fuel tank,whether in a boat or car.
� DO NOT fill fuel container to maximumcapacity. Gasoline will expand consider-ably as it warms up and can build uppressure in the fuel container. This cancause fuel leakage and a potential firehazard.
WARNINGEWM00700
Never get under the lower unit while it istilted, even if a motor support bar is used.Severe injury could occur if the outboardmotor accidentally falls.
CAUTION:ECM00660
Do not use the tilt support lever or knobwhen trailering the boat. The outboard mo-tor could shake loose from the tilt supportand fall. If the motor cannot be trailered inthe normal running position, use an addi-tional support device to secure it in the tiltposition.
The outboard motor should be trailered andstored in the normal running position. If thereis insufficient road clearance in this position,then trailer the outboard motor in the tilt posi-
tion using a motor support device such as atransom saver bar. Consult your Selvadealer for further details.EMU30041
Storing outboard motorWhen storing your Selva outboard motorfor prolonged periods of time (2 months orlonger), several important procedures mustbe performed to prevent excessive damage. Itis advisable to have your outboard motor ser-viced by an authorized Selva dealer prior tostorage. However, you, the owner, with a min-imum of tools, can perform the following pro-cedures.
CAUTION:ECM01350
� To prevent problems which can becaused by oil entering the cylinder fromthe sump, keep the outboard motor inthe attitude shown when transportingand storing it. Do not store or transportthe outboard motor on its side (not up-right).
� Do not place the outboard motor on itsside before the cooling water hasdrained from it completely, otherwisewater may enter the cylinder through theexhaust port and cause engine trouble.
� Store the outboard motor in a dry, well-ventilated place, not in direct sunlight.
� Drain the remaining gasoline from thevapor separator. Gasoline left in the va-por separator for a prolonged period oftime will break down and could causedamage to the fuel line.

Cleaning and adjusting spark plug
WARNINGEWM00560
When removing or installing a spark plug,be careful not to damage the insulator. Adamaged insulator could allow externalsparks, which could lead to explosion orfire.
The spark plug is an important engine compo-nent and is easy to inspect. The condition ofthe spark plug can indicate something aboutthe condition of the engine. For example, if thecenter electrode porcelain is very white, thiscould indicate an intake air leak or carburetionproblem in that cylinder. Do not attempt to di-
agnose any problems yourself. Instead, takethe outboard motor to a Selva dealer. Youshould periodically remove and inspect thespark plug because heat and deposits willcause the spark plug to slowly break downand erode. If electrode erosion becomes ex-cessive, or if carbon and other deposits areexcessive, you should replace the spark plugwith another of the correct type.
Before fitting the spark plug, measure theelectrode gap with a wire thickness gauge;adjust the gap to specification if necessary.
