IMPORTANCE OF PROPER SET-UP, INSTALLATION, AND PRE-DELIVERY SERVICE For Your Customer’s Safety Proper set-up, installation and pre-delivery service are essential to the customer’s safety and the reliability of the outboard motor. Any error or oversight made during assembly can result in faulty operation, damage to the outboard motor, or injury to others. For Your Safety Some of the most important general safety precautions are given below. However, we cannot warn you of every conceivable hazard that can arise in performing set-up, installation and pre- delivery service. Only you can decide whether or not you should perform a given task. IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS • Make sure you have a clear understanding of all basic shop safety practices and that you are wearing appropriate clothing and safety equipment. When performing set-up, installation and pre- delivery service, be especially careful of the following: Read all of the instructions before you begin, and make sure you have the tools, the replacement or repair parts, and the skills required to perform the tasks safely and completely. Protect your eyes by using proper safety glasses, goggles or face shields any time you hammer, drill, grind or work around pressurized air or liquids, and springs or other stored-energy components. If there is any doubt, put on eye protection. Use protective wear when necessary, for example, gloves or safety shoes. Handling hot or sharp parts can cause severe burns or cuts. Before you grab something that looks like it can hurt you, stop and put on gloves. Protect yourself and others whenever you have engine-powered equipment up in the air. Any time you lift an outboard motor with a hoist, make sure the hoist hook is securely attached to the outboard motor. • Make sure the engine is off before you begin any servicing procedures, unless the instruction tells you to do otherwise. This will help eliminate several potential hazards: Carbon monoxide poisoning from engine exhaust. Be sure there is adequate ventilation whenever you run the engine. Burns from hot parts. Let the engine and exhaust system cool before working in those areas. Injury from moving parts. If the instruction tells you to run the engine, be sure your hands, fingers and clothing are out of the way. • Gasoline vapors are explosive. To reduce the possibility of a fire or explosion, be careful when working around gasoline. Use only a nonflammable solvent, not gasoline, to clean parts. Never drain or store gasoline in an open container. Keep all cigarettes, sparks, and flames away from all fuel-related parts. WARNING Improper service or pre-delivery service can create an unsafe condition that can cause your customer or others to be seriously hurt or killed. Follow the procedures and precautions in this manual and other service materials carefully. WARNING Failure to properly follow instructions and precautions can cause you to be seriously hurt or killed. Follow the procedures and precautions in this manual carefully.

9. BF200A/BF225AINSTALLATION HEIGHT RECOMMENDATIONS

With the boat loaded, stationary and the motor perpendicular to the water surface, there must be a minimum of 5 inches between the water surface and the idle exhaust port. If the motor is mounted lower on the transom, water may enter the exhaust port through wave surge or backwash, potentially causing engine damage.

TRANSOM DRILLINGBefore drilling, check the thickness of the transom, making sure it does not exceed the maximum allowable thickness shown below.

1. Set the outboard motor onto the boat transom and verify the correct installation height.

2. Center the Transom Mount Drill Fixture on the boat transom. Position the Drill Fixture flat against the transom. See also TRANSOM CENTER LINE on page 1-24.Verify no damage will occur when the motor mounting holes are drilled. Look for any structural impediments such as bulkheads, braces, fuel cells, bilge pumps or floor sections before drilling.Ensure there is adequate space for the bolt, washer and transom support plates (if applicable), to bear on a flat surface.The upper bolt holes should be more than 33 mm (1.3 in) from the top of the transom. The lower bolt holes should allow the mounting bolts to contact the upper end of the stern bracket. See also USING THE TRANSOM MOUNT DRILL FIXTURE on page 1-28.

3. Secure the Transom Drill Fixture with clamps to prevent movement

4. Wear safety glasses and drill four holes with a 12.5 mm (1/2 in) drill bit in the upper “C” and lower “D” guides of the Transom Mount Drill Fixture.

9. BF200A/BF225AStandard Bracket Dimensions STEERING CONNECTIONS

SELECTIONA single cable steering system is not recommended for either the BF200A or BF225A.The steering system selection is determined by the particular application. Consult the boat manufacturer or steering manufacturer for recommendations.A hydraulic steering system is the best choice to improve boat stability, minimize lost motion in the steering system and reduce boat chine walk on high-performance boats. A dual cable steering system will help to eliminate steering free play which may cause the outboard motor to move side-to-side slightly at high speeds resulting in chine walk. For further information regarding hydraulic steering or dual cable steering, refer to the hydraulic steering, mechanical steering or dual cable kit manufacturer’s instructions.Steering Recommendations:Bay Star Hydraulic Steering by TeleflexDual Cable Steering Kit P/N 08M61-ZW3-000AHLink Arm Kit P/N 06532-ZY3-U00

STEERING PREPARATIONRemove the cap from the steering/tilt tube prior to installing the steering system.

Loosely install the hydraulic or mechanical steering cables on the motor before final placement of the motor on the transom.Refer to the steering cable or hydraulic steering manufacturer’s instruction manual for handling procedures.

9. BF200A/BF225ASTEERING LINK ARM INSTALLATION Remove the bolts and shipping bracket from the steering arm. Discard the hardware indicated and reinstall the 1/4-28 bolts.

Steering Link Arm P/N 06532-ZY3-U00 (optional part, includes all hardware).The steering link arm must be secured between the steering arm and steering system using the bolt, washers, nuts and collar shown. Both the bolt and self-locking nuts, used at each end of the steering link arm, must be in good condition.

1. Install bolt, washer and collar into link arm. Remove access grommet from inside engine cover area and thread bolt into steering arm inside hole. Tighten bolt then tighten lock nut. Do not use forward hole.

TORQUE:3/8-24 UNF bolt: 22 N•m (16 lb-ft)3/8-24 UNF lock nut: 18 N•m (13 lb-ft)The steering link arm to steering system self-locking nut is normally tightened to 8–11 N•m (7–8 lb-ft) then loosened 1/8 turn. The link arm needs to be able to pivot at the steering attaching point. The steering link arm must have sufficient thread length when the nut is tightened down and the link arm must have at least two or three threads past the end of the self-locking nut.

2. Directly after completing the steering link arm installation, verify the following:• Motor turns the proper direction when the

steering wheel is turned right and left. If the steering is reversed, correct as necessary.

• Motor steering angle is equal when steering wheel is turned full right and full left. If the motor steering angles are not equal, corrections can be made at the steering box (refer to the steering box or steering cable manufacturer’s instructions).

• Make the steering angles equal as necessary.

The steering mechanism must not come in contact with any part of the boat when the steering wheel is turned full right and full left and at all tilt angles. Correct as necessary and check again.

9. BF200A/BF225ABOLTING MOTOR TO TRANSOMApply marine hull sealant to the mounting holes and inside sealing surface of the large washer. Use Hondabond HT (P/N 08718-0001) or equivalent polymer sealant for below waterline use. Adhesives should not be used, as they will result in difficult engine removal or height adjustment. Gel coat damage may also occur when removing/adjusting the engine. With the motor in place against the transom, verify correct motor height. Motor can be raised by using a lower set of mounting holes on the bracket. If the boat transom has molding that prevents the outboard stern bracket from sitting flat against the transom, add a spacer plate or contact the boat manufacturer for information on how to remove molding.

Attach the motor with marine grade hardware. Use washers under all bolts and nuts. Use additional fender washers against the transom. Use support plates as recommended by the hull manufacturer.

Lubricate the mounting bolt threads with marine grease prior to installing the mounting bolt nut to prevent thread galling and locknut insert damage.

Ensure at least one thread of the bolt is visible beyond the nut when the fasteners are tightened.

NOTICEDo not use an air impact tool to tighten or loosen the transom bolts. Using an air impact tool to tighten or loosen the transom bolts can generate enough heat to damage the bolt threads. The air impact tool can also produce enough tightening torque to damage the boat transom.

Do not scratch the transom bracket when tightening the mounting bolts. Removing paint promotes corrosion and leads to eventual failure of the bracket.

Pay attention to the washers, support plates (if applicable) and boat transom as the nuts are tightened. This is especially important on boats that are being repowered. If the washers and/or support plates (if applicable) are drawn into the transom material, the transom material is weakened and must be inspected and repaired as necessary before the engine is installed.If the transom is found to be soft, water penetration may have occurred and caused the transom material to rot and weaken. Contact the boat manufacturer for boat repair information as needed.

9. BF200A/BF225ADUAL MOTOR INSTALLATION 1. Install the steering system of choice.2. Install a commercially available tie bar.3. Adjust the toe-in or toe-out.

Refer to page 1-67 for details.On a dual motor installation when the minimum distance between motors is used, the engine cover of one motor may interfere with the adjacent motor if only one motor is tilted up when the boat is steered full right or full left.

NOTICEDo not tilt only one motor when the boat is steered full right or full left. The engine covers could be damaged.

REMOTE CABLE INSTALLATIONRoute the electrical harnesses and cables through the boat. Connect the cables to remote control before connecting them to the motor.

Prior to selecting the appropriate harness, check the style of gauge connection on the motor. Early 2004 BF200A/BF225A motors utilized a 3-pin flat connector, while later 2004 motors utilized a rectangular green 6-pin connector.

1. Route the battery cable to the front cover bracket. Position the battery cable white tape mark so it aligns with the edge of the front cover bracket.

2. Spray the grommet with silicone spray.3. Run the fuel hose, indicator wire harness,

battery cable and main harness through the undercase grommet A.

FUEL HOSE CONNECTIONNOTICE

Do not use unlined, worm-type fuel hose clamps. They may cause leaks by damaging the outside of the fuel hose.During operation, check for any fuel or air leaks and repair immediately. If these connections draw air, the engine fuel pump will malfunction.The primer bulb must be positioned so that the outlet end is higher or can be positioned higher than the inlet end. The arrow on the primer bulb must point upward toward the engine.

ENGINE SIDE

If you are unable to properly crimp the band type clamp provided, use a quality stainless steel lined fuel hose clamp.

BOAT SIDEThe fuel hose is 7.5 mm (5/16 in) and the male hose barb is stepped to 12 mm (0.4725 in). The priming bulb hose barbs are 7.5 mm (5/16 in). Make sure the fuel hose is not pinched or crushed as it routes to the boat fuel supply. This could cause an engine malfunction.

Fuel Hose ClampIf the outboard motor fuel hose is going to be connected directly into the boat fuel tank supply hose, secure this hose by using a fuel hose clamp type as listed above. Secure the hose joint so that it does not bounce and become damaged on a hard surface.

Water SeparatorA water separator is highly recommended between the boat fuel tank and the motor. Remove the hose barb from the fuel hose end and connect the fuel hose directly to the water separator outlet 7.5 mm (5/16 in) brass hose barb (not included) and clamp securely.PRIMER
