TILTING UP/DOWN
If  the  engine  will  be  stopped  for  some
time, or if the boat is moored in shallows,
the engine  should be  tilted up  to protect
the propeller and casing  from damage by
collision  with  obstructions,  and   also  to
reduce salt corrosion.

Before tilting the motor, follow the pro-
cedures  under   “STOPPING  ENGINE”.
Never tilt the motor while the engine is
running.   Severe  damage   from   over-
heating can result.

Do  not  tilt up  the  engine  by  pushing
the steering handle  as this could break
the handle.
Keep  the  power  unit higher  than  the
propeller at all times.  Otherwise, water
can run into the  cylinder, causing dam-
age.

Be  sure all  people  are  clear  of the  out-
board   motor   when   adjusting   the   tilt
angle,  also  be careful  not  to  pinch  any
body  parts  between  the  drive unit  and
engine bracket.

Leaking  fuel is  a fire  hazard.  Disconnect
the fuel line if the engine will be tilted for
more than a few minutes. Otherwise, fuel
may leak. (If  the fuel connector is provid-
ed on the motor.)
