TRAILERING
When trailering your boat with the motor
attached, keep the motor in the normal operat-
ing position unless there is not enough ground
clearance. If you need more ground clearance,
trailer the motor in a tilted position using a tran-
som saver bar or similar device to support the
weight of the motor.
NOTICE
If you use the tilt up lock arm/tilt lock lever to
hold the motor in the fully tilted up position
when trailering the boat, towing motion or
poor road surfaces may cause unexpected tilt
lock release, resulting in damage to the motor
and the tilt lock mechanism.
Never use the tilt up lock arm/tilt lock lever to
hold the motor in the fully tilted up position
when trailering the boat. Use a transom saver
bar or similar device to support the weight of
the motor.
