Camoo lifting adapter for Yamaha outboards – 1.5" x16 steel lift point, fits 4.2 V6 & 5.3/5.6 V8, 1000 lb SWL

Camoo Lifting Adapter is a heavy-duty steel adapter that attaches to Yamaha flywheels to provide a secure 1.5" x16 lifting point for Yamaha 4.2 V6, 5.3/5.6 V8, F115B, F200B, F425 and compatible non-Verado Mercury outboards.

When outboards lack factory lifting eyes, handling and installing an engine becomes awkward and risky. This Camoo adapter bolts directly to the flywheel using supplied Grade 12.9 bolts and pairs with the MT0022 lifting ring tool to create a reliable, rated lifting point. Built to replace OEM part YB-06820, the adapter is made from high-strength steel and tested for workshop and dockside rigging where overhead lifting is not required.

How does this adapter attach to my Yamaha outboard?

The adapter fastens directly to the flywheel using the supplied high-strength bolts, aligning with the existing bolt pattern. Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable with basic mechanical tasks and common hand tools.

• Direct fit for Yamaha flywheels specified (4.2 V6, 5.3/5.6 V8, F115B, F200B, F425).
• Includes Grade 12.9 bolts sized for reliable clamping torque.
• Uses the MT0022 lifting ring tool for a full lifting assembly.
• Replaces Yamaha factory part number YB-06820.

What load capacity and safety limits should I expect?

This adapter is constructed from high-strength steel and rated with a Safe Working Load (SWL) of 1000 lb. It is intended for controlled lifting in a workshop or on a pier and is not certified for overhead crane lifting where drop hazards exist.

• 1000 lb Safe Working Load—suitable for marine engine handling and install tasks.
• Not rated for overhead or personnel-lifting applications.
• Use only with appropriate lifting hardware and inspected slings/shackles.
• Follow torque specs and mounting procedures during installation.

Will this work with Mercury non-Verado engines and other models?

The adapter is compatible with non-Verado Mercury engines that use a 1.5" x16 lifting thread and with the Yamaha models listed. Confirm flywheel thread size and bolt pattern before purchase to ensure compatibility.

• Designed for Yamaha engines without built-in lifting eyes.
• Works on non-Verado Mercury engines using the same thread spec (1.5" x16).
• Check flywheel fitment and clearances for your specific model year.
• Contact Camoo support for fitment questions or verification help.

What comes in the package and what else do I need?

The kit ships with the lifting adapter and Grade 12.9 bolts required to attach it to the flywheel. For a complete lifting assembly you will need the MT0022 lifting ring tool and appropriate slings or shackles rated above the adapter's SWL.

• Included: Camoo lifting adapter plus Grade 12.9 mounting bolts.
• Required but not included: MT0022 lifting ring tool and rated lifting hardware.
• Packaged with installation guidance and warranty information.
• 30-day return and 12-month limited warranty from Camoo.

Who this is for: This adapter is aimed at marine technicians, boatyards, and do-it-yourself boat owners who need a dependable lifting point for Yamaha outboards that were manufactured without built-in lifting eyes, and for those working with compatible non-Verado Mercury engines. If you install, remove, or service heavy outboards and want a direct-fit, factory-equivalent solution with a clear safe working load and quality hardware included, this Camoo adapter is designed to simplify rigging and reduce handling risk.
