OPERATING IN SHALLOW WATER
When operating your boat in shallow water, you can tilt the outboard beyond
the maximum trim range to prevent hitting bottom.
1. Reduce the engine speed below 2000 RPM.
2. Tilt the outboard up. Make sure all the cooling water intake holes stay
submerged at all times.
• Below 2000 RPM the engine can be trimmed or tilted to any range.
Caution is advised when operating the engine past the tilt range. Ensure
the water pickups are submerged.
• If the engine is below 2000 RPM and is in the trailer range, advancing the
throttle will allow the engine to achieve a maximum RPM of 4250. Engine
operation in this capacity (above the normal 2000 limit) should only be
used for loading or unloading the boat onto or off the trailer. It should not
be used during normal boat operation.
NOTE:Exceeding 4250 RPMs the engine PCM will begin Engine Guardian
protection.
