Context

Country: Canada
State/Province: Ontario
Period: 1998-2006
Canada: Type of outdoor motor sold and bought in Canada for pleasure boating. The OptiMax was the most popular among the new first generation of 2-stroke DFI outboards. Mercury Marine was no more manufacturing outboards in Canada since 1991. Mercury Marine has a lot of dealers in Canada. [see acquisition proposal for further details].
Function: The warning system will alert the operator to the potential problems.
Technical: The outboard warning system incorporates warning lights (a), and warning horn (b). The warning horn is located inside the remote control or is part of the ignition key switch wiring harness. The system is activated when the oil in the engine mounted oil reservoir tank drops below 22 fl. oz (175 ml). You still have an oil reserve remaining for 30 minutes of full speed operation. [ complete details of the warning system refer to the manual: trade literatue #]
