2004 Johnson 3.5 hp R 2-Stroke Outboard Owners Manual

TRAILERING
WARNING
Keep  everyone  clear   of  stern  area  when
raising or  lowering the outboard.   Personal
injury or death can result from contact with
moving parts of the outboard.
Trailer your boat with  the motor in a   vertical posi-
tion. If your trailer does not provide adequate road
clearance, gain additional clearance by placing the
angle adjustment rod in the hole furthest out. Refer
to Motor Angle Adjustment. Gain maximum clear-
ance by tilting the motor all the way and using an
accessory trailering bracket.
If you hit any object, stop immediately and examine
the engine for loosening of attaching hardware and
clamp screws, if equipped. Inspect for damage to
swivel  and  stern  brackets,  steering  components,
and components in the area of impact. Also, exam-
ine  the  boat  for  structural  damage.  Tighten  any
loosened hardware. If the collision occurred in the
water,  proceed  slowly  to  harbor.  Before  boating
again,  have  your  DEALER  thoroughly  inspect  all
components.
IMPORTANT: Whenever trailering, the motor must
be restrained. Bouncing during transport will dam-
age the motor and boat’s transom.
IMPACT DAMAGE
Your boat and motor can be seriously damaged by
a collision at high or low speeds, while trailering, or
while in the water.
WARNING
Failure to inspect for damage could result in
sudden,   unexpected    component   failure,
loss  of  boat  control,  and  personal  injury.
Unrepaired damage could reduce the ability
of  your  boat   and  engine  to  resist  future
impacts.
STORING
For brief periods of nonuse, store your motor on the
boat or on a motor stand in a vertical, self-draining
position. For long periods of nonuse, refer to Off-
Season Storage.
IMPORTANT: After use and before transport, hold
the engine in a vertical position until the cooling sys-
tem has completely drained. Keep the powerhead
higher than the gearcase at all times.
