11 Anti-grounding Mode
When the boat runs in shallow water or in complicated underwater conditions, it may
meet grounding dangers. Setting the outboard to anti-grounding mode will protect
the outboard motor from damage if the outboard hits submerged reefs or rocks. In
anti-grounding mode, the underwater part of the outboard is exible in tilting direction
and the motor will automatically tilt up if it hits something underwater.
Step 1: Use the left hand to pull the gear hook to turn it through a certain angle to en-
sure that the beach structure wrench can be pulled down to the end of the stroke.
Step 2: Use your right hand to pull down the beach structure wrench to the end of the
stroke (pull up to exit the beach).
