DIRECTIONS FOR USE

BASIC SAFETY MEASURES

To use the outboard motor you must have all the requisites provided by law (physical suitability, insurance, government duties, registration, and so on). We suggest you become familiar with your boat equipped with SELVA motor in places, which are not too crowded.

Taking some medicines, alcoholic drinks or drugs increase considerably the risk of accidents.

Make sure that you are in a physical condition suitable for driving. Pay attention to tiredness.

The engine operator should not let his mind wander, or be distracted or influenced by other people, things or actions,(do not smoke, eat, read, and so on.) while steering the boat.

Use fuels and oils suitable for the engine, which are listed in the "greasing chart ".

Check every so often the oil level and the fuel level.

Stop the motor before every kind of maintenance or cleaning procedures, and in case of complicated maintenance take the spark-plug cap out.

Picture No. 2.

Before opening the top cowling, wait till the engine has cooled.

Do not open the top cowling, when the engine is running.

Picture No. 3.

PAY ATTENTION TO THE PROPELLER

The propeller is certainly the least protected part of your motor. It is therefore forbidden to get near the propeller when this is rotating. You must leave bathers, skiers and other boats users enough space to move, in order to avoid any contact with the propeller.

Picture No. 4.

5

The engine operator must attach the engine stop switch lanyard to his wrist when the motor is on.

Picture No. 5.

Never sit on the motor.

Picture No. 6.

The motor must always have its top cowling on, when it is operating

Picture-No. 7.

When you connect the fuel joint, check the proper connection

For the models with automatic Oil mixer, control the proper connection of the oil joint.

Picture No. 8.

The anti-tilt lever and the Shock Absorber lever must always be engaged while the motor is in motion. (models with Swivel Bracket or Shock

Absorber)

Never tilt-up the motor out of the water, while it is in motion.

Picture No. 9.

When starting or operating the engine, do not touch electrical parts and particularly the ignition-coil, the high voltage wire, the spark-plug cap and the spark-plug itself.

When opening the safety valve of the fuel tank, highly flammable vapours come out. Do not smoke, inhale or use open flames close to it.

If the motor has had an accident, you should have it fully checked, before you use it again. If necessary let the SELVA MARINE authorised skilled staff have a look at it.

Do not use the motor, if the damage could have compromised the sailing safety.

Any alteration attempted on your motor or the removal of any of its basic elements, can compromise its safety, it is against the law, and it means the immediate loss of your guarantee.

Observe the laws in force.

Pay great attention to the weather conditions. Listen to the weather forecast and take the warnings to the sailors into consideration.

Keep your boat and equipment on board in a perfect state of efficiency.

Keep enough spare parts on board.

Inform somebody of your route, before sailing.

Prevent fires and explosions.

Before operating an outboard motor, you must know the laws and regulations relating to navigation.

Picture No.24

Outboard motor mounting.

A good position of the motor on the transom is very important to have an appropriate trim angle and therefore to obtain a good performance from your boat

The motor has to be mounted on the centre line of the stern belt.

To have the optimum mounting height of the outboard motor, you must mount it so that the anti-cavitation plate is between the bottom of the boat and a level of 2 cm below it and it is parallel to it.

If the mounting-height is too high, cavitation tends to occur and consequently there will be a falling-off in the performance and a probable overheating of the motor.

If the mounting-height is too low, the water-resistance will increase and thereby reduce engine efficiency.

The motor must be vertical to the water surface and the bracket mounted on a flat even surface and should be fully supported by the top edge of the transom.

If the bracket is not fully supported or, if the transom height is too low, a hard wood block should be securely fitted between the bracket and the transom.

Picture No. 25

MOTOR FIXING

Model with Swivel Bracket

After having put the motor in the correct position, clamp the screws of the levers. Then make two holes in the transom in correspondence of the holes in the fixing brackets. Apply some dope on the holes made and on the screws to be used to fix the motor (which are with the motor). Insert the screws and the washers so that the nuts are inside the boat. Then clamp very well.

Models with Shock Absorber-Power Trim

After having found the correct fixing place of the motor, make four holes in the transom so that they are in correspondence with the holes in the fixing brackets. Then apply some dope on the holes made and on the bolts

(accessories). Insert the bolts from outside of the transom and screw the bolts clamping them very well.

Picture No. 26

Use only bolts, nuts and washers which are in the motor packing. If you need to use other components, be sure that they are of the same quality regarding the material and strength. Tighten the bolts and check the tightening of bolts and levers after running the motor.

For the models with Shock Absorber and Power Trim, the two screws that are in the brackets are used only to keep the motor while fixing it and you have to take them away when you've fixed it.

We suggest you to ask for the help of skilled people to make he operations over described.

TRIM ANGLE ADJUSTING

The trim angle is the inclination angle, that should be given to the motor in order to obtain an optimal performance from your boat.

An improper trim angle does not only affect the performance of your boat, but can also cause loss of control, which means danger for the people on board.

While sailing the motor should be perpendicular to the water surface, but the trim angle can be 3 degrees to 5 degrees.

If the trim angle is made too great, the buoyancy centre of the boat will shift towards the stern. In this condition, and if the stability moment at the bow is large, the boat will tend to

"porpoise". If the trim angle is insufficient, the bow may

"plough", making the boat unstable.

When the boat is in stable trim it remains parallel to the water.

Trim Adjusting - models with Trim

The trim-angle adjusting is automatically made and regulated through the utilisation of the Trim.

Picture No. 27

14

Trim-angle adjusting - models with Shock Absorber

Release the Shock Absorber through the control lever. Tilt the motor and keep it in this position through the tilt-supports. Insert the trim-adjusting pin in the position of correct trim. Lower the supports and place the motor in the original position. Fasten the Shock Absorber releasing the control lever.

Picture No. 28

REMOTE CONTROL BOX INSTALLATION

To install the remote control box and the cables we suggest you contact an official dealer SELVA MARINE.

We suggest you contact this dealer also for the control device installation.

Position of the remote control box

Normally the remote control box is supplied to be in positioned on the right.

If you need to have it on the opposite side, ask your dealer.

When positioning the remote control box pay attention that the control lever can be gripped and operated comfortably and without obstacles.

Even the cables must be put in order not to have any obstacle on their patch and must not get in the way of the passengers. Be sure that the cables are long enough and that they can't get entangled when the steering-wheel is operating

Picture No. 29

If the cables aren't correctly installed, they can get entangled causing the loss of control of the boat.

An improper installation of a remote control box may cause a sudden and unexpected loss of control, of the boat. In case or doubts about the remote control installation, ask your SELVA

MARINE dealer.

15

Never bind or entangle the cables of the remote control box.

They mustn't be bound with a bending ray inferior to 300 mm.

(12 feet).

The cables aren't included in the supply of the motor.

They must be of the type C2.

Before connecting or disconnecting the battery leads turn the switch key in the anti-clockwise direction, to avoid risks of electric shock, fire or explosion.

It is important to install with the battery the battery disconnect switch. (not included)

Mount the battery in a dry, well-ventilated, vibration-free location in the boat.

Recommended battery type:

Minimum rated capacity (20HR/IEC): 12V 70 A.h

Minimum cold cranking (CCA/EN): 430 A at -18°C (-0.4 °F)

Connect the red lead to the positive terminal (+) first; then connect the black lead to the negative terminal (-).

1 - Red lead

2 - Black lead

3 - Battery

4 - Battery disconnect switch Picture No. 35

To disconnect the battery, disconnect the black lead first.

Battery electrolytic fluid is dangerous; it contains dilute sulphuric acid and therefore is poisonous and highly caustic

Always follow these preventive measures:

• Avoid bodily contact with electrolytic fluid as it can cause severe burns or permanent eye injury.

•

• Wear protective eye gear when handling or working near batteries.

If any battery electrolytic fluid spills onto your skin, flush with water.

• If you should get battery electrolytic fluid in your eyes flush with water for 15 minutes and get immediate medical attention.

• If you should swallow battery electrolytic fluid, drink large quantities of water or milk followed by milk of magnesia, beaten eggs or vegetable oil. Get immediate medical attention.

Batteries also generate explosive hydrogen gas. Therefore avoid operating in areas which are not well-ventilated or near fire, spark, or open flames.

DO NOT SMOKE when charging or handling batteries.

KEEP BATTERIES AND ELECTROLYTIC FLUID OUT OF REACH OF

CHILDREN.

It is important to disconnect the battery connection with the battery disconnect switch only when the engine is stopped.

The disconnection of the battery when the engine is running can make serious damages to the engine.

18

FUEL Preparation of the fuel

Fuel

The fuel used for the propulsion of internal combustion engines is highly flammable and, in certain cases can become explosive.

Refuelling and maintenance operations must be done in a wellventilated area and with the engine stopped.

Do not smoke while refuelling, keep away from sparks, flames, or other sources of ignition, which could cause fire or explosion.

Do not spill gasoline. If gasoline spills, wipe it immediately with dry rags, before starting the motor .

Do not overfill the fuel tank, because gasoline expands with the heat and the sun radiation.

Tighten the filler cap securely after refuelling.

Do not let gasoline get into your eyes or onto your skin. Avoid swallowing gasoline or inhaling its vapour. Do not pour fuel off using a pipe.

If you should swallow some gasoline, inhale a lot of gasoline vapour, get some gasoline in your eyes, or if any gasoline spills onto your skin, get immediate medical attention.

Keep out from children reach.

Use only pure fuels, conserved in suitable and clean tanks, that aren't contaminated with water or other materials.

Use only petrol with a octane number higher than 95 N.O.

Research and that does not contain alcohol.

Fuel tank clamping and pipes connection

Put the fuel tank horizontally in the hull, anchored to the bottom, in a place where it does not hinder your movements and so that the pipe is long enough to reach the motor.

Then connect the pipe to the fuel joint.

For this operation you have to insert the female fast fuel connector.

Picture No. 36

Now you have to check the full connection, is secure pulling lightly the joint

(do not pull grasping the hose).

Picture No. 37

To release it is enough to pull the ring nut of the fast connector.

Verifications when the motor is on

Just after starting the motor, you should make sure that:

-after 5/10 seconds some water runs out from the cooling-water pilot holes. The indicator, placed at the entrance of the circuit, provides only for the proper operation of the pump and not for the circulation of water in the head and in the cylinder.

That means that possible shortages will not be indicated. If water does not flow from the pilot-holes, check to see if the water inlets are blocked.

- that you do not hear any strange noise

- that the control members work correctly

- the security devices are efficient.

CRUISING

Responsibility during the navigation.

The operator is responsible for the proper running of the boat and for the safety of the people on board.

Everybody must read this manual before cruising. Show all the passengers the location of the safety equipment and the way to use it.

Teach one of your passengers , how to pilot the boating an emergency.

Familiarise yourself with the laws and regulations in force where you want to sail.

Tilt-up the motor

(model with Shock Absorber)

Release the Shock Absorber using the control lever.

Tilt-up the motor and secure it through the motor-lift supports.

To bring it back to the original position you have to lift lightly the motor, lower the motor's supports and bring it till the original position.

Turn clockwise the trim release screw, that you can reach through the hole on the left bracket.

Lift the motor by hand and fix it in this position pushing towards the high the motor's supports and turning the trim release screw in counter clockwise direction at the end of its stroke.

Lower it and accompany it while lowering it and secure it in this position turning the trim release screw in counter clockwise direction.

Trim adjusting (with Power-Trim device unusable)

Picture No. 48

To adjust the trim when the Trim device is not operating, follow these instructions.

If the motor is in tilt position (lifted) you have to:

If you want to keep the motor in tilted position for a long period you have to secure it using the motor's supports.

They must always be fixed before the Power Trim device operates.

Picture No. 47

If the battery is discharged or there is a failure in the electrical system of the Power Trim, it's however possible to tilt the motor up following the following instructions:

• Insert the trim-pin in that position that allows a correct trim.

• Turn in a clockwise direction the trim release screw. (in this way the pressure on the piston of the tilt will discharge and the motor is no more supported) It must be accompanied till it's lowered.

• When the motor leans on the adjustment pin you have to turn the trim release screw in a counter clockwise direction till the end of the stroke, paying attention not to force too much.

• The motor is fixed in the correct trim position and it's possible to cruise.

If the motor is in cruising position you need to follow the same operations turning it over by hand.

Picture No. 49

23

These operations must be made when the motor is off.

If the motor is in tilt position, it begins to lower as soon as you turn the release screw in a clockwise direction.

Overheat warning system

The engine is provided with an overheat warning device Before the engine becomes too hot, the engine speed is reduced to 3000 RPM by the E.C.U.

If the overheat warning system operates, proceed as follows: Check that water runs out of the pilot hole. If OK, keep the engine at low speed for about five minutes. Then avoid overloading the engine. If no water or just a little runs out from the pilot hole, stop the engine, tilt it up, as shown in this manual and check the water inlets for blockages. If blocked, you must clean them, bring the motor back to the home position and start it and run it at low speed for about five minutes; check that water runs out of the pilot hole.

If after having done all this, you start the engine and no water runs out of the pilot hole, stop immediately the motor and contact a SELVA MARINE dealer.

In case of over heating problem, the buzzer gives out an uninterrupted.

Directional skeg

The directional skeg allows to balance the turn effort.

When the boat tends to turn right, turn the directional skeg right (direction

A in the picture)

And if the boat tends to turn left, turn the skeg left (direction B in the picture)

The directional skeg is also an anode to avoid the electrochemical corrosion of the motor. Not to compromise this function you never have to paint it and it must be properly connected to the motor ground.

After the installation or the replacement of the skin you always have to make some verifications of its correct operating.

An improper adjustment of the directional skeg might cause control difficulties and a loss of control of the boat.

Picture No. 50

Always switch the motor off before tilting it up.

Before beginning the cruising again, check that the motor is fixed in the correct trim position.

Never keep the motor on if no water runs out of the pilot hole.

BREAKING IN (RUNNING-IN) PROCEDURE

Your new engine requires a period of break-in (running-in) to allow mating surfaces of moving parts to wear-in evenly.

Correct break-in (running-in) will help ensure proper performance and longer engine life.

Failure to follow the break-in (running-in) procedure may result in reduced engine life or even severe engine damage.

Do not use pre-mixed fuel in this engine as it may cause carbon deposits on the fuel injector thereby causing engine trouble.

Follow the instructions for breaking-in / running-in carefully.

NOTE:

Break-in (running-in) time:10 hours

Run the engine under load (in gear with a propeller installed) as follows.

1) First 10 minutes:

Run the engine at the lowest possible-speed. A fast idle in neutral is best.

2) Next 50 minutes:

Do not exceed half throttle (approximately 3,000 r/min). Vary engine speed occasionally. If you have an easy-planing boat, accelerate at full throttle onto plane, then immediately reduce the throttle to 3,000 r/min or less.

3) Second hour:

Accelerate at full throttle onto plane, then reduce engine speed to three quarter throttle (approximately 4,000 r/min). Vary engine speed occasionally.

Run at full throttle for one minute, then allow about 10 minutes of operation at three-quarter throttle or less to let the engine cool.

4) Third through tenth hours:

25

Avoid operating at full throttle for more than 5 minutes at a time. Let the engine cool between full-throttle runs.

Vary engine speed occasionally.

5) After the first 10 hours:

Operate the engine normally.

PRE-OPERATION CHECKS

If any item in the pre-operation check is not working properly, have it inspected and repaired before operating the outboard motor.

Otherwise, an accident could occur.

Do not start the engine out of water.

Overheating and serious engine damage can occur.

Verify that the oil pipes are full.

In case of air presence in the oil pipes, stop immediately

the engine and consult your Selva dealer.

STOPPING PROCEDURE

Emergency stopping procedures.

In an emergency you can stop your motor by pulling the engine stop switch lanyard.

To start the motor again you have to install again the lanyard's lock plate on the engine stop switch.

Stopping in normal conditions

Picture No. 51

Place the control lever (remote control box) in the neutral position " N ".

Turn the switch key till the OFF position.

Picture No. 52

RESTART AFTER A LONG STOP PERIOD OR AFTER EMPTING THE

LUBRICATION CIRCUIT

After a long stop period or after empting the lubrication circuit, it’s necessary to fill up the oil lines removing manually any eventual presence of air in the circuit that may casue serious damage to the engine.

Before operting the motor check that the oil delivery pipes are full.

If you don’t care about this procedure, it could be dangerous for the motor and compromise its functionality.

26

CLEANING

Cleaning outside

SELVA motors don't need much cleaning; to clean the painted parts use a cloth soaked with water

Do not use flammable solvents.

Cleaning cooling-water passages

Every now and then after using, clean the cooling-water passages, in order to remove mud and salt, so that they do not affect the performance of your motor.

You can carry out this cleaning operation in two different ways:

1 - Immerse the outboard motor without the propeller in a tank filled up with fresh-water, make sure that the water level is over the height of the water inlets, so that no irreparable damage could be caused to the motor.

Shift the gear-shift lever into neutral " N ". Start the engine and run at low speed for a few minutes.

2 - Connect a pipe of fresh-water to the hole for the engine cleaning joint plug ( use the proper joint available in the fittings series ). Stop the water inlets. Shift the gear-shift lever into neutral. Start the engine and run at low speed for a few minutes.

MAINTENANCE

Before doing any kind of maintenance or check operation, switch off the engine and wait till it has cooled down, then remove the spark plug cap, in order to avoid an accidental starting.

Pay attention to the motor parts, which are still hot, so that you do not burn yourself.

Some maintenance operations must be carried out by qualified staff.

Contact SELVA MARINE after-sale service.

The following chart lists the periodic maintenance operations to do on your motor.

The pointed out operations must be done by qualified staff.

While cleaning the cooling water passages make sure that water always circulates in the passages, checking its running out of the pilot hole.

Greasing and additions

The part, which must be filled with oil, are the camshaft oil tank and the gearbox.

Camshaft oil filling

When delivered, the camshaft’s oil tank is empty, before operating the engine fill it with oil.

The oil must agree with the characteristics listed in the greasing chart, and must comply with the quantity pointed out in the technical detailed list.

Camshaft oil change

To change the camshaft’s oil do as follow:

Keep the motor in vertical position.

Remove the plastic coner around the shaft of the engine

Place a container to collect the used oil under the drain-oil hole

Take out the oil-level plug and the oil drain-plug.

Wait until the oil has drained completely, (during this operation you must check, if water or other foreign bodies are to be found in the drained oil. They are signs of anomalies which must be identified and repaired by qualified staff, before using the motor again).

Insert the oil drain plug and check the seal.

Throught the filling hole fill the oil.

Insert and tighten the oil-level plug.

The used oil must be given to the proper collecting centres or to a SELVA service point. Picture No. 54

Gearbox-oil change

Selva supply the motor already with the oil, which the user will have to change completely after the first 20 cruising hours

After this change you must check its level every 50 hours and change it every 100 hours, and anyway each season

To change the oil do as follows :

Keep the motor in vertical position.

Place a container to collect the used oil under the gearbox.

Take out the oil-level plug and the oil drain-plug.

They have a different size and after the oil change they must be replaced in their proper seat.

Wait until the oil has drained completely, (during this operation you must check, if water or other foreign bodies are to be found in the drained oil.

They are signs of anomalies which must be identified and repaired by qualified staff, before using the motor again).

Inject the oil into the oil drain-plug hole.

The oil must agree with the characteristics listed in the greasing chart, and must comply with the quantity pointed out in the technical detailed list.

Insert and tighten the oil-level plug and the oil drain plug. a SELVA service point.

Picture No. 55

The used oil must be given to the proper collecting centres or to

Spark-plugs

The spark-plug must be often inspected because heat and deposits affect its efficiency so that the performance of the motor will be affected too.

The inspection of the spark-plug must be done when the engine is not running and it has cooled down.

It is very important to check, that the part made of porcelain is not damaged because this could allow external sparks, which could lead to explosion or fire.

To remove the spark-plug use the supplied spanner; using an abrasive brush, remove any depots, then check the wear condition and the sparkplug gap ( the gap must be 0,6 mm, to measure it use a thickness gauge )

If the spark-plug is badly worn you must replace it with a new one which must agree with the characteristics listed in the specifications chart.

The spark-plug torque is 20 Nm ( ~ 2. kgm). If a torque-wrench is not available, you can obtain a good estimate of the correct torque turning the spark-plug completely by hand and then turning it with the spanner, a new spark-plug must be turned ~

90° and an old one 15° ÷ 20°.

Replace the spark-plug cap, checking that it is correctly fitted and then replace the top cowling.

Picture No.56

30

Sacrificial anode.

To protect the motor against electrochemical corrosion, due to the presence in its structure of many different materials, a sacrificial anode has been applied.

The anode will be subject to a strong corrosion, so you have to remove the scales from the surfaces of the anode periodically.

Failure to clean it, will affect its effectiveness.

Do not paint the anode, for this would render it ineffective.

When the corrosion compromise its functionality, you have to replace it.

Picture No. 57

Replacement of the Propeller

The propeller is one of the components, which have a great influence upon the performance of the motor. An unsuitable or damaged propeller can cause serious damages to the motor besides reduce the performance.

For an careful choice of the propeller consult a SELVA MARINE service centre.

Remove and replace the propeller do as follows:

• wait until the motor has cooled down and remove the top cowling;

• remove the spark-plug cap, to avoid an accidental start;

• protect your hands using strong gloves and insert a wooden lump between the propeller blades and the anti-cavitation plate, to keep the propeller still.

• remove the split pin, the blocking nut, the washer, the propeller and the propeller shoulder.

• spread the propeller shaft with water-repellent grease;

• assemble everything in the opposite direction paying attention to clamp the nut until you reach the position that allows the insertion of the split pin in the hole made in the propeller shaft.

• insert the split pin and fix it widening the end.

Picture No.58

Before making the maintenance operations on the motor, take away the spark plug caps to avoid accidental starting.

Towing

The motor should be towed in the normal running position. Avoid towing with the tilt-support lever only, but use a motor support device.

31

Storage Fuel tank.

Store the fuel tank in a well-ventilated place, not in direct sunlight.

To help the endurance of your motor, you must carry out properly the following storage operations:

• Clean the motor and the cooling-water passages.

• Remove the fuel-line connections from the motor.

• Change the fuel filter.

• Empty the float chamber of vapour separator tank.

• Remove the spark-plug and put engine-oil into the hole; turn the flywheel by hand to distribute the oil in the cylinder; replace the spark-plug.
