BASIC TILT LEVER OPERATION
When operating the outboard in forward gear, the tilt lever must be in the down
position. This is the unlocked position which allows the outboard to pivot out of
the running position if the outboard should strike an underwater obstacle,
decreasing the potential of severe damage. This position also allows the
outboard to lock into the shallow water drive position or the full up position.
When operating the outboard in reverse gear, the tilt lever must be in the up
position. This is the locked position which prevents the outboard from pivoting
out of the water.
a - Locked position for reverse operation and

b - Unlocked position
TILTING OUTBOARD TO FULL UP POSITION

2. Shift the outboard to forward gear position.
3. Position the tilt lever to the unlocked position.
