If the outboard cannot be tilted using the power trim/tilt switch, the
outboard can be manually tilted by the following procedures.
CAUTION
The engine must be supported during lowering in the follow-
ing steps or the engine may drop rapidly and personal injury
as well as damage to the engine could occur.
NOTE: Place a suitable container below the connection and wrap
the connection with a cloth to collect any fluid which may be dis-
pelled during the following operations.
1 TILTING (DOWN / IN):
Loosen the (starboard-right, facing engine from front) hydraulic
connection at the front of the swivel bracket.
Slowly lower the engine to the desired position, and reconnect
the hydraulic connection.
2 TILTING (UP /OUT):
Loosen the (port-left, facing engine from front) hydraulic connec-
tion at the front of the swivel bracket.
Slowly lift the engine and engage the tilt lock lever. Reconnect the
hydraulic connection.
IMPORTANT: If the hydraulic lines are disconnected and fluid
is lost, the power trim pump must be refilled and the lines
purged of air.
