BASIC TILTING OPERATION
Models equipped with a gas assisted tilt system allows the operator to lock the
outboard at any tilt position from full down to full up.
This tilt system is designed to be adjusted when the outboard is idling in
neutral, or with the engine turned off.
Before operating, the outboard must be locked in its tilt position by moving the
lock lever to the lock position.
!
WARNING
Operating the engine without engaging the tilt lock lever can cause serious
injury or death. The outboard can tilt upwards when decelerating or operating
in reverse, causing loss of boat control. Always lock the outboard in its run
position before operating.
Move the lock lever to the free position. Tilt the outboard to the desired position
and lock in place by moving the tilt lock lever back to the lock position.
