Positioning Outboard for Storage
NOTICE
Storing the outboard in a tilted position can damage the outboard.
Water trapped in the cooling passages or rain water collected in
the propeller exhaust outlet in the gearcase can freeze. Store the
outboard in the full down position.
• To prevent problems which can be caused by oil entering the
cylinders from the sump, store the outboard in one of the four
positions shown.
a - Upright position
b - Tiller handle down
c - Front side up
d - Front side down
• Never carry, store, or transport the outboard in the position
shown. Engine damage could result from oil draining out of
the crankcase.
