Removal and Installation (see Figures 50 thru 53) Removal of the top cover is necessary for the most basic of maintenance and inspection procedures. The cover should come off before and after each use in order to perform these basic safety checks. The lower covers do not need to be removed nearly as often, but on models where they are easily removed, they should be removed at least seasonally for service and inspection procedures. Don?t let a small leak or damaged cable/hose hide behind the safety of a cover. On all models, the engine top cover is attached by some type of lever or latch. No tools are necessary to remove the cover itself. The exact shape and design of the levers vary somewhat from model-to-model, though they are usually located on the aft part of the motor, at the split line between the top cover and the lower cases. Some of the smaller motors use a lever that is pulled outward to release the cover. A few of the very small 2-strokes and the largest 4-strokes use over-center latches that hook onto tabs on the top cover, these are normally released by pulling at the base of the latch. However, the vast majority of motors covered by this manual utilize a rotating lever that is twisted 45-90ø in order to release the top cover. No matter what design is used, be certain that the cover is fully seated and mounted tightly to the lower cases in order to prevent the possibility of it coming loose in service. The lower covers of most motors are screwed or bolted together by fasteners found around the perimeter of one or both sides of the cover. In a few cases, such as some 5/6 hp or 8/9.9 hp 4-stroke motors, one or more of the fasteners may be hidden. These fasteners may be accessible only through access points around the cover such as through the choke handle or, in the case of many motors, through the water indicator outlet hole.
