How do I use Yamaha 9.9d 2-stroke outboard?

New to boating, I just got given this engine in good condition, works well, but I don't know how to use the three levers properly. No operating manual.

Lever 1: faces towards boat. I seem to have to depress that to tilt the motor up. Does it have any other function?

Lever 2: Facing towards the stern of the boat this is on the left. It has an L-shaped slot. I use this to tilt the engine down into the water, and also to latch the motor in the tilted up position. Does it have any other function.

Lever 3: Below lever 2, it swivels a bracket that appears to control how much the motor swivels down. What's it for?

Any help much appreciated!

Yamaha are about the ONLY people who allow you to download the owners manuals!!!

http://www.yamaha-motor.com/outboard...d_manuals.aspx

Chose the year and the model etc and download the pdf file.

For some stupid reason they have blocked you from printing but I soon got around that!!!

Of course some people on here reckon I don't know what I am on about so be careful - maybe the manuals are written in double dutch or tripple crap or similar!!!

Thanks for your quick reply. Well, I don't know your reputation but what an excellent link you gave. It doesn't cover my exact model, I think mine may be earlier than the earliest on the web site, but it may be similar enough to be useful. So I downloaded it and saved it. Haven't tried to see if I can print it yet.

NOT as simple as that - it is a protected file - it needs to be hacked to be able to print!!!

You need an acrobat password cracker.............

Done it! This is what I did:
Downloaded trial version of PDF Toolbox. Opened the file with it. Although the print command in the menu is still greyed out, the print icon is not. So clicking on that lets you print the file. No faffing about with password cracking.

As the trial version is time-limited and I wanted to a manual that I could print later, I then installed Adobe Distiller. Then when you print a file you get the option of choosing your printer or Distiller. Choose Distiller and it creates a new PDF file for you - without printing inhibited.

Eventually found earlier manuals on Yamaha's Australian website.
