Inspecting the QSTS
mechanism
Check that the shift lock lever moves back
to the lock position smoothly, that the QSTS
selector locks and unlocks properly, and that
the jet thrust nozzle moves up or down.
1. Squeeze and release the shift lock lever.
2. Check that the QSTS selector locks
when the lever is released.
3. Check that the selector turns smoothly
when the lever is squeezed and held in
place.
4. Check that the angle of the jet thrust
nozzle changes when the selector is
shifted from neutral to bow-up or bow-
down.
If the mechanism does not work properly,
have a Yamaha dealer service it.

Adjusting the carburetor
The carburetor is a vital part of the engine
and requires very sophisticated adjustment.
Most adjusting should be left to a Yamaha
dealer who has the professional knowledge
and experience to perform it. However, the
operator may adjust the trolling speed as
part of the usual maintenance routine.
CAUTION:@ The carburetor was set at the Yamaha
factory after many tests. If the settings
are disturbed by someone who does not
have the necessary technical knowledge,
poor engine performance and damage
may result.
@
EJU01262
Adjusting the trolling speed
1. Put the watercraft in the water.
2. Start the engine and warm it up for 1 or 2
minutes. Using a diagnostic tachometer
or, if necessary, the tachometer in the
multifunction meter, adjust the engine
speed to specification.
3. Turn the throttle stop screw 1 clockwise
to increase engine speed if necessary.
Turn it counterclockwise to decrease
engine speed if necessary.
Trolling speed: 1,250–1,350 r/min
