Description
Suzuki engineers have packed the new in-line three-cylinder DF25A & DF30A range with some of Suzuki’s finest technologies giving them class-leading advantages that put them ahead of the rest. Engineering lightweight outboards has long been a Suzuki hallmark. Both models are first in class to feature friction reducing roller rocker arms and each utilises offset crankshafts resulting in smoother operation and greater mechanical efficiency.
Fuel is supplied with Suzuki’s Lean Burn Control system and a Battery-Less Fuel injection system that gives these outboards remarkable improvements fuel efficiency while maintaining excellent power and performance. A convenient LED monitoring system provides engine operating status at a glance.
Tiller model available in Long (L) shaft length.
FIRST IN CLASS WITH ROLLER ROCKER ARMS
These are the first outboards in their respective classes to utilise a roller with internal bearings on the cam slipper surface for both the intake and exhaust valves. The roller changes contact between the camshaft and rocker arm from a conventional sliding action to a rolling action reducing friction in rocker arm operation.
SUZUKI LEAN BURN CONTROL SYSTEM
This intelligent fuel management system predicts fuel needs by monitoring engine performance and operating conditions to deliver a leaner fuel mixture to the engine. The result is remarkable improvements in fuel economy.
FEATURES
DIRECT INTAKE AND ENGINE COVER VENTILATION
A new engine cover design provides the direct intake system with a smoother, cooler flow of air boosting engine operating efficiency. This, together with a newly designed air cleaner allows higher power output from a small displacement.
To help reduce the temperature inside of the engine cover, the rotating flywheel pushes warm air inside of the cover through the vent hole to the outside.
OFFSET CRANKSHAFT
Positioning the crankshaft slightly off centre of the cylinder reduces lateral pressure against the cylinder wall as the piston moves up and down in the cylinder. The result is smoother piston movement, which improves operating efficiency.
ENGINE MONITORING LED INDICATORS
The LED monitoring system utilises three LEDs to keep you informed of current operating conditions. Located in an easily visible position, the LEDs provide easy to understand monitoring at a glance so you can enjoy a pleasurable boating experience.
NEW GENERATION FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM (BATTERY LESS FUEL INJECTION)
A remarkably compact and lightweight fuel injection system is designed to fit into these outboards without adding unneeded bulk or weight. What’s more, it operates without a battery and still delivers quicker starts, smoother operation, and more acceleration in all conditions.
EASY START RECOIL
Fuel injection delivers easier starts, but Suzuki goes a step further incorporating a very light recoil starter into these outboards. Requiring less pull strength, the Easy Start Recoil Starter makes starting the outboard quick and easy.
ENGINE FLUSH PORT
To help protect the engine from damage caused by salt, sand, and dirt that can build up in the engine’s cooling system, the outboards are equipped with an easy to access freshwater flush port to make cooling system flushing as easy and convenient as possible.
SUZUKI’S ANTI CORROSION SYSTEM
Suzuki protects its outboards with an anti-corrosion finish specially developed by Suzuki. Applied directly to the aluminium surface it maximises the bond between the finish and the surface, increasing the protection and durability of parts that are constantly exposed to saltwater.
