TRAILERING
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. See your Dealer.
DO NOT use the tilt lock lever when trailering.
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.
IMPACT DAMAGE
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 com-
ponents.
Your engine can be damaged from impact with un-
derwater objects. Such impacts can result in seri-
ous damage to your engine and injury to boat
occupants from the engine or its parts entering the
boat. Occupants can also be ejected or injured by
falling against portions of the boat as a result of rap-
id deceleration following impacts. When boating in
unfamiliar, shallow, or debris-laden waters, seek in-
formation on safe boating areas and navigation
hazards from a reliable local source. Reduce your
speed and keep a sharp lookout!
WARNING
Failure to inspect for damage could result in
sudden, unexpected component failure,
loss of boat control, and personal injury.
Unrepaired damage could reduce your boat
and engine’s ability to resist future impacts.
