OWER'S MANUAL Corse
This manual must be considered as an integral part of your outboard motor and has to be kept with it, also if the motor is resold. Selva joint-stock CO. reserve the right to change its product at any moment, except for the essential specifications, which will be kept as they are. Any reference to products or details of a third party has only an informative purpose and it doesn't represent an obligation. Selva joint-stock CO.
ATTENTION INTRODUCTION Before operating this outboard motor, read this Owner's Manual carefully and completely, pay attention especially to the safety measures and rules.
SERIAL NUMBER RECORD OUTBOARD MOTOR IDENTIFICATION DATA Write down the identification number and the model of your This data is stamped on the label attached on the clamp bracket, as shown on the picture 1. outboard motor in the spaces below. When you receive your new SELVA outboard motor write down the serial number, it will be useful to you in case you will have to order spare parts or for reference if your outboard motor should be stolen.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE BASIC SAFETY MEASURES To use the outboard motor you must have all 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. 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.
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 in rotating. You must leave bathers, skiers and other boat users enough space to move, in order to avoid any contact with the propeller. Picture No. 4. There must be nobody within the motor steering radius. Picture No. 11. Never tilt-up the motor out of the water, while it is in motion. Picture No. 12.
If the motor has had an accident, you should have it fully checked, before you use it again. If necessary let the SELVA MARINE authorized skilled staff have a look at it. Do not use the motor, if the damage could have compromised the sailing safety. Prevent fires and explosions. Before operating an outboard motor, you must know the laws and regulations relating to navigation.

c THE USE OF OUTBOARD MOTOR PRELIMINARY CONTROLS CHART DETAIL Complete supply CHECK DESCRIPTION Check that the motor supply includes all the components, that are in the detailed list Check the proper installation of your motor ( the center of the transom). Right installation PAGE 13 13 Check the proper mounting height of your motor. 13 Check the tightness of the clamp screws. 13 Fuel Check the conformity of the fuel to the detailed list.
c Outboard motor mounting Check of the supply. 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 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.
c Trim angle adjusting − tilt up the motor; − bloc the engine in the tilt position turning downwards the engine tilt cam; − remove the adjusting-rod and reposition the rod in the desired hole, which allows the appropriate trim angle; − lift the engine, unlock the tilt support bar and bring again the motor in the vertical position, so that it leans on the adjustment pin; The trim angle is the inclination angle, that should be given to the motor in order to obtain an optimal performance from your boat.
c FUEL Preparation of the fuel Fuel Use only petrol with an octane number higher than 95 N.O. Research and that does not contain alcohol, with the addition of 2% of oil proper for mixture (see the detailed list) For the motors with incorporated fuel tank it is preferable to use already prepared mixture or you should remove the top cowling and mix the fuel thoroughly by shaking.
c STARTING Verifications when the motor is on Just after starting the motor, you should make sure that : Verifications when the engine is OFF check that the top cowling is locked. Picture No. 38. Make sure that the lock plate is installed on the engine stop switch. Picture No. 39. - Starting procedures Loose the safety valve on the fuel tank If your engine is cold, you have to pull the choke knob. Picture No. 40. after 5/10 seconds, water runs out from the coolingwater pilot-holes.
c During the first 3 running hours do not accelerate too much, and during the following navigation hours you can accelerate properly but only for short periods. After about 20 hours you have to change entirely the gearbox-oil (see the greasing sectioning this manual). A good running in will allow you to obtain a good performance from your motor and a longer endurance of it. STOPPING PROCEDURE Emergency stopping procedures. In an emergency you must stop your motor by pulling the engine stop switch lanyard.
c OPERATING IN REVERSE GEAR To run in reverse gear you need to turn the engine through 180° compared to the normal position. When the engine is in reverse position, the motor’s lift is automatically prevented by a mechanism. Use the engine in the reverse position only in manoeuvre operations and at low r.p.m.
c CLEANING While cleaning the cooling water passages make sure that water always circulates in the passages, checking its running out of the pilot hole. Picture No. 49. Cleaning outside SELVA motors do not need much cleaning, to clean the painted parts use a cloth soaked with water 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 staring.
c PERIODIC INSPECTIONS AND ADJUSTMENTS GREASING CHART (Running hours) INITIAL OPERATIONS TO PERFORM 10 50 100 THEREAFTER EVERY Out of 100 season GREASE POINTS Inspection of the conditions of the fuel hoses. If necessary replace them. Check the fuel hose joints for leaks If necessary replace them. API GL-5 SAE 80 W 90 Gearbox Check the proper working of carburetor. If necessary adjust it. GREASE THAT MUST BE USED MIL -L 2105 C the Check, clean and adjust the spark-plugs.
c Greasing and additions The used oil must be given to the proper collecting centers or to a SELVA service point. The only part, which must be filled with oil, is the gearbox. 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.
c ### 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.
