FEATURES & CONTROLS

Shallow Water Operation
The outboard is equipped with a shallow water tilt feature that
allows you to tilt the outboard to 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
neutral gear.
NOTE: Please follow the instructions below:
• When running in shallow water, take care the water in take is
submerged at all times and that water is continuously running
out of the water pump indicator hole.
• Be sure to run slowly when using the shallow water drive.
Running at higher speeds will result in lack of control and may
cause damage to the gearcase.
• Ensure that the motor does not strike the bottom, especially
when running in Reverse (R). If the motor strikes the bottom
while in reverse the impact is transmitted to the transom,
risking damage to both the motor and the boat.
