Trailering Boat/Outboard - Tiller Handle Models and Remote Control
Models With Power Trim
Trailer your boat with the outboard tilted down in a vertical operating position.
If additional ground clearance is required, the outboard should be tilted up using an accessory outboard support
device. Refer to your local dealer for recommendations. Additional clearance may be required for railroad
crossings, driveways and trailer bouncing.
IMPORTANT: Do not rely on the power trim/tilt system or tilt support pin to maintain proper ground clearance for
trailering. The outboard tilt support pin is not intended to support the outboard for trailering.
Shift the outboard to forward gear. This prevents the propeller from spinning freely.
Trailering Boat/Outboard - Remote Control Models Without Power Trim
Trailer your boat with the outboard tilted down in a vertical operating position.
If additional ground clearance is required, the outboard should be tilted up using the shallow water drive/trailering
bracket. Additional clearance may be required for railroad crossings, driveways, and trailer bouncing.
TO ENGAGE BRACKET FOR TRAILERING
1. Set the tilt lock lever up to the release position.
2. Tilt up the outboard and engage the shallow water drive/trailering bracket.
3. Lower the outboard onto the bracket.
4. Push the tilt lock lever down to the lock position. This will lock the outboard down against the bracket.
