Operation
q
Run the boat at the lowest possible
speed when using the shallow water
cruising system. The tilt lock mecha-
nism does not work while the shallow
water cruising system is being used. Hit-
ting
an underwater obstacle could
cause the outboard motor to lift out of
the water, resulting in loss of control.
Do not rotate the outboard motor 180°
and operate the boat in reverse. Place
the gear shift in reverse to operate the
boat in reverse.
Use extra care when operating in re-
verse. Too much reverse thrust can
cause the outboard motor to lift out of
the water, increasing the chance of acci-
dent and personal injury.
