CAUTION
Remove cowling and remove all spark plug leads from spark plugs to prevent acci-

Service or installation of the tilt system may result in loss of pressure in the shock
cylinder. If the outboard is not in the full down position, such loss of pressure will

sition using tilt lock lever.
WARNING
Manual tilt system is pressurized. Accumulator must be removed when shock rod
is in the full up position, prior to servicing, otherwise oil spray-back may occur.
