ENGINE OPERATION
While in shallow water drive position,
do not operate the outboard motor in
reverse. Operate the outboard motor at
slow speed and keep the cooling water
intake submerged.
Note
Slow down to trolling speed, and shift
into neutral before setting outboard
motor to shallow water drive position.
During shallow water operation, be
careful not to place your hand between
the swivel bracket and the stern bracket.
Be sure to tilt the outboard motor down
slowly.
●

●
Tilt lock is disabled when in shallow
water drive position.
●
When driving shallow water, be
careful not to strike outboard motor
against sea bottom, or propeller

resulting in loss of control.
