4.1 Transporting
The outboard motor should be trailed and stored in the normal running position. If there is insufficient
road clearance in this position, then trailer the outboard motor in the tilt position using a motor support
device.
CAUTION:
Do not use the tilt support lever or knob when trailering the boat. The outboard motor could
shake loose from the tilt support and fall.
WARNING:
Never get under the lower unit while it is tilted, even if a motor support bar is used.
When transporting or storing the outboard motor while removed from a boat, keep the
outboard in the position shown.
CAUTION:
Place a towel or something similar under the outboard motor to protect it from damage.
Do not place the outboard motor on its side before drain the engine oil completely,
otherwise the oil would enter the cylinder and cause engine trouble.
