Maintenance
Transporting and storing
outboard motor
 USE CARE when transporting
fuel tank, whether in a boat or car.
 DO NOT fill fuel container to
maximum capacity. Gasoline will
expand consid- erably as it warms up
and can build up pressure in the fuel
container. This can cause fuel leakage
and a potential fire hazard.
 Leaking fuel is a fire hazard.
When transporting and storing the
outboard motor, disconnect the fuel
line from the outboard motor to
prevent fuel from leaking.
 Never get under the outboard
motor while it is tilted. Severe injury
could oc- cur if the outboard motor
accidentally falls.
 Do not use the tilt support
lever or knob when trailering the boat.
The outboard motor could shake loose
from the tilt support and fall. If the
outboard motor cannot be trailered in
the normal run- ning position, use an
additional sup- port device to secure it
in the tilt position.
When storing or transporting the outboard
motor, make sure to follow the procedure
list- ed below.
 Disconnect the fuel hose from
the fuel joint on the outboard motor and
install the fuel joint cap.
 Tighten the fuel tank cap and its
air vent screw.
 Store the fuel tank in a well-
ventilated place.
 Store the fuel tank in a place that
is stable
and not exposed to shocks.
When the outboard motor is tilted prolonged
time for mooring or trailering the boat, make
sure to follow the procedure listed below.
 Disconnect the fuel hose from the
fuel joint on the outboard motor and
install the fuel joint cap.
 Tighten the fuel tank cap and its air
vent screw.
The outboard motor should be transported
and stored in the normal running position. If
there is insufficient road clearance in this
po- sition, then trailer the outboard motor in
the tilt position using a motor support device
such as a transom saver bar. Consult your
Hidea dealer for further details.
