Owner's Manual DF60A, DF40A, DF50A Motor Installation

Fuel lines and fuel tanks used for a vessel must meet the requirements of federal law (40 CFR 1045.112 and 40 CFR 1060).

If you install the engine in a way that makes the engine‘s emission control information label hard to read during normal engine maintenance you must place a duplicate label on the vessel, as described in 40 CFR 1068.105.

Failing to follow these instructions when installing a certified engine in a vessel violates federal law (40 CFR 1068.105(b)), subject to fines or other penalties as described in the Clean Air Act.

Overpowering your boat can be hazardous. Excessive horsepower will have an adverse effect on hull safety and may cause operating/handling difficulties. The boat may also sustain stress and hull damage.
Never install an outboard motor with horsepower exceeding the manufacturer’s recommended maximum horse-power listed on the boat‘s “Certification Plate". Contact your authorized Suzuki marine dealer if you are unable to locate the hull “Certificate Plate”.

It is against federal regulations for any marine dealer to service a motor that exceeds the recommended maximum horsepower for your boat.

Suzuki strongly recommends that you have your outboard motor, controls and gauges installed by your authorized Suzuki Marine Dealer. He has the tools, the facilities and the know-how.

Failure to have your outboard motor and associated controls and gauges properly installed can result in personal injury or damage.
