Owner’s ‘Manual before operating the Outboard Motor. Failure to do so could result in personal injury or equipment damage.

To ensure safe operation-

Understand the operation of all controls, and know how to stop the engine quickly- READ THlS OWNER’S MANUAL CAREFULLY.

Do not exceed the boat manufacturer’s power recommendation, sure the outboard motor is properly mounted. and be

Never permit anyone to operate the outboard motor without proper instruction.

Stop the engine immediately if anyone falls overboard.

Do not run the motor while the boat is near anyone in the water.

Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide which can cause un- consciousness and may lead to death. Never run the outboard in a clos- ed garage or confined area.

Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain condi- tions. Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped.

Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks where the engine is refueled or where gasoline is stored.

Do not overfill the fuel tank. After refueling make sure that the fuel tank cap is closed properly and securely.

Be careful not to spill any fuel while refueling. Spilled fuel or fuel vapor may ignite. If any fuel is spilled, make sure that the area is dry before starting the engine.

3. INSTALLATION

It is your responsibility to choose a boat suitable for the engine (2 horse- power). manufacturer’s power recommenda- tion. Damage and injury may result.

Two shaft lengths are available for the BF2A, either long or short, to match the transom height of the boat.

1. Installation Position

Install at the stern at the center line of the boat.

2. Installation Height

STERN CENTER

For proper propellei depth and engine cooling, the boat’s transom height must match the motor’s shaft length. The short shaft motor re- quires a transom height of about 15 in. The long shaft motor requires a transom of height about 20 in. Once the boat is in the water and loaded, check proper motor depth by looking at the anti-cavitation plate: with the motor not running, the plate should be about 100 mm (4 in.) below the surface of the water.

CAVITATION

During operation, check to be sure the anti-cavitation plate remains under water at all times and that water flows from the water check hole.

Excessive or imbalanced loading will affect the motor’s water depth.

Loading too far forward will raise the motor out df the water, reducing engine cooling. Loading too much or too far rearward will push the motor deeper, reducing performance.

CAUTION: Insufficient water supply (anti-cavitation plate out of the water) may cause overheating that will damage the outboard motor.

7

3. Motor Attachment

Attach the stern bracket to the transom and tighten the clamp screws. l

CAUTION: l

While operating the boat, check the tightness of the clamp screws occasionally.

Tie a rope through the hole in the stern bracket and secure the other end of the rope to the bo,at. This will prevent accidental loss of the motor.

5. Motor Angle Adjustment

If the propeller axis is not parallel with the surface of the water, adjust the angle of the motor by relocating the adjusting bolt on the stern brackets. There are four adjustment positions.

1. Loosen the wing nut to free the adjusting bolt.

2. Adjust the angle of the motor, and tighten the wing nut. Be sure that the bolt .head and wing ntit are seated in one of the four recesses on the adjustment slot.

2. Fuel Level

Remove the filler cap and check the fuel level. Refill the tank if the fuel level is low.

NOTE: Open the vent knob before removing the fuel filler cap. When the vent knob is firmly closed, the cap will be difficult’to remove.

Your engine ‘s to use any gasoline that has a pump oc- tane number (-

) of 86 or higher, or that has a research octane number of 91 or higher.2Gasoline pumps at service stations normally display the pump octane number.

We recommend that you use unleaded fuel because it produces fewer engine and spark plug deposits and extends the life of exhaust system components.

Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or an oil/gasoline mixture. Avoid getting dirt, dust or water in the fuel tank. Use of a lower octane gasoline can cause persistent “pinging” or heavy “spark knock” (a metallic rapp- ing noise) which, if severe, can lead to engine damage.

CAUTION: If “spark knock” or “pinging” occurs at a steady engine speed under normal load, change brands of gasoline. If spark knock or pinging persists, consult your authorized Honda dealer. Failure to do so is considered misuse, and damage caused by misuse is not covered by

Honda’s Limited Warranty.

Occasionally you may experience light spark knock while operating under heavy loads. This is no cause for concern, it simply means your engine is operating efficiently.

Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped. Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area where the engine is refueled or where gasoline is stored.

Do not overfill the tank (there should be no fuel in the filler neck). After refueling, make sure the tank cap is closed properly and securely.

Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. Spilled fuel or fuel vapor may ignite. If any fuel is spilled, make sure the area is dry before starting the engine.

Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or breathing of vapor.

KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.

GASOLINES CONTAINING ALCOHOL

If you decide to use a gasoline containing alcohol (gasohol), be sure its oc- tane rating is at least as high as that recommended by Honda. There are two types of “gasohol”: one containing ethanol, and the other containing methanol. Do not use gasohol that contains more than 10% ethanol. Do not use gasoline containing methanol (methyl or wood alcohol) that does not also contain cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors for methanol. Never use gasoline containing more than 5% methanol, even if it has cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors. l l

NOTE:

Fuel system damage or engine performance problems resulting from the use of fuels that contain alcohol is not covered under the warranty.

Honda cannot endorse the use of fuels containing methanol since evidence of their suitability is as yet incomplete.

Before buying fuel from an unfamiliar station, try to find out if the fuel contains alcohol; if it does, confirm the type and percentage of alcohol used. If you notice any undesirable operating symptoms while using a gasoline that contains alcohol, or one that you think contains alcohol, switch to a gasoline that you know does not contain alcohol.

3. Other Checks

Check the following items.

@ Propeller, shear pin and cotter pin. Check for looseness or damage.

@ Steering handle. Check for impaired operation.

@ Stern bracket. Check for damage.

@Tool kit. Check for missing spare parts and tools (page 27).

@ Anode metal. Check for looseness, damage or excessive corrosion.

The anode metal helps to protect the outboard motor from corrosion damage; it must be exposed directly to the water whenever the motor is in use. Replace the anode metal when it has been reduced to approximately one half of its original size.

CAUTION:’ The possibility of corrosion damage increased if the anode metal is painted over or allowed to deteriorate.

High altitude operation

At high altitude, the standard carburetor air-fuel mixture will be excessive- ly rich. Performance will decrease, and fuel consumption will increase.

High altitude performance can be improved by installing a smaller diameter main fuel jet in the carburetor and readjusting the pilot screw. If you always operate the outboard motor at altitudes higher than 6,000 feet above sea level, have your authorized Honda Outboard Motor dealer per- form these carburetor modifications.

Even with suitable caburetor jetting, engine horsepower will decrease ap- proximately 3.5% for each 1,000 foot increase in altitude. The effect of altitude on horsepower will be greater than this if no carburetor modifica- tion is made.

CAUTION: Operation of the outboard motor at an altitude lower than the carburetor is jetted for may result in reduced performance, overheating, and serious engine damage caused by an excessively lean air/fuel mixture.

8. Shear Pin Change

A shear pin is used to protect the propeller and drive mechanism from damage when the propeller strikes an obstruction.

1. Remove the cotter pin and the propeller.

2. Remove the broken shear pin and replace it with a new one.

3. Install the propeller.

4. Install a new cotter pin, and spread the ends as shown in the illustration.

CAUTION: When replacing the shear pin, be careful not to drop the pro- peller into the water.

Precautions concerning the propeller

The propeller rotates at high speed when the boat is moving. Before set- ting off, therefore, check the propeller blades for damage or deformation, and if there are any abnormalities replace the propeller. Carry a spare pro- peller in case of an unforeseen accident on the water.

If a spare propeller is not available and an accident does occur, return to shore carefully while running the engine at low speed.

9. Servicing a Submerged Motor

A submerged motor must be serviced immediately after it is recovered from the water in order to minimize corrosion.

If there is a Honda outboard motor dealership nearby, take the motor im- mediately to the dealer. If you are far from a dealership, proceed as follows:

1. Remove the engine cover, and rinse the motor with fresh water to remove salt water, sand, mud, etc.

2. Drain the fuel tank into a suitable container.

3. Loosen the carburetor drain screw (page 351, drain the contents of the

carburetor into a suitable container, then retighten the drain screw.

4. Change the engine oil (page 28). If there was water in the engine

crankcase, or the used engine oil showed signs of water contamination, then a second engine oil change should be performed after running the engine for l/2 hour.

5. Remove the spark plug. While pressing the engine stop button; pull the recoil starter several times to completely expel water from the cylinder. l l

CAUTION:

When cranking the engine with an open ignition circuit (spark plug removed from the ignition circuit), keep the engine stop button depress- ed to prevent electrical damage to the ignition system.

If the motor was running when it submerged, there may be mechanical damage, such as a bent connecting rod. If the engine binds when crank- ed, do not attempt to run the motor until it has been repaired.

6. Pour a teaspoon of engine oil into the spark plug hole, then pull the recoil starter several times to lubricate the inside of the cylinder.

Reinstall the spark plug.

7. Attempt to start the engine. If the engine fails to start, remove the spark plug, clean and dry the electrode, then reinstall the spark plug and attempt to start the engine again. If the engine starts, and no mechanical damage is evident, continue to run the engine for l/2 hour or longer (be sure the water level is at least 4 inches above the anti- cavitation plate).

8. As soon as possible, take the motor to a Honda outboard motor dealer for inspection and service.

34

9. TRANSPORTING/STORAGE

1. Drain the water from the extension case.

While depressing the engine stop button to prevent starting, pull the starter rope several times to expel the water from the extension case. l l l l

Do not rest the motor on its side until the water has been expelled from the extension case, otherwise water will seep into the exhaust system.

In cold weather, the water must be expelled from the extension case to prevent ice from forming in the water pump and water tube.
