LOWERING OUTBOARD DOWN TO RUN POSITION

to release it from its locked position and gently lower it.
SHALLOW WATER OPERATION
The shallow water drive position on the outboard allows you to
position the outboard at a higher tilt angle to prevent hitting bottom.
IMPORTANT: Before tilting the outboard into the shallow water
drive position, reduce engine speed to idle and shift engine into
forward gear.
IMPORTANT: While in the shallow water drive position, do not
operate the outboard in reverse. Operate the outboard at slow
speed and keep the cooling water intake submerged.
