OPERATION
TRAILERING
DANGER
Trailer your boat  with the motor in a vertical   posi-
tion. If your trailer does not provide adequate road
clearance, the motor can be trailered by using an
accessory trailering bracket.
DO NOT  run the  engine indoors  or without
adequate   ventilation    or   permit    exhaust
fumes   to  accumulate   in   confined  areas.
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide
which,  if  inhaled,  can  cause  serious  brain
damage or death.
IMPORTANT: Whenever using an accessory traile-
ring bracket, the motor must be restrained. Bounc-
ing  during  transport  will  damage  the  motor  and
boat’s transom. DO NOT use the motor’s tilt sup-
port or the shallow-water drive bracket as a traile-
ring bracket.
WARNING
TILTING AND TILT SUPPORT
Contact with  a rotating propeller  is likely to
result in serious  injury or death. Assure the
engine and prop area  is clear of people  and
objects before  starting  engine or  operating
boat. Do  not allow anyone  near a propeller,
even when  the engine is  off. Blades can  be
sharp and the propeller can continue to turn
even after the  engine is off. Always  shut off
the engine when near people in the water.
WARNING
Your  motor   has  “impact  protection”   and
“reverse lock” only when the tilt/run lever is
in RUN position. If operated with the tilt/run
lever left in TILT position, the motor could
tilt into the boat suddenly, causing loss of
control or serious injury.
MOTOR ANGLE ADJUSTMENT
IMPORTANT: Use the tilt grip to tilt your motor; not
the steering handle.
Motor should be perpendicular to the water when
the boat is underway at full speed. This adjustment
can only be determined by water testing the boat.
Set angle adjustment for your normal load.
Place motor in full tilt position. Refer to Tilting and
Tilt Support.
With the engine shut OFF and the shift lever in
NEUTRAL, move angle adjusting rod.
