When using the shallow-water drive bracket,
the tilt lock feature will not work. Operate
your motor in FORWARD and ONLY at slow

drop suddenly if it hits an underwater object
or if you shift to REVERSE and apply throt-
tle. You could lose control.

SHALLOW-WATER DRIVE
There are two shallow-water drive positions. Use
whichever is appropriate, depending on the depth
of the water.
Slow the engine and shift to NEUTRAL before en-

Slowly tilt the outboard up until you hear it make a
“click” sound.
Slowly lower the outboard. It will stop in a position
that is slightly tilted up from the normal trim angle.
IMPORTANT: Check often that water intakes are
completely submerged and the water pump indica-
tor is discharging a steady stream of water.
MOORING
You may moor your boat with the motor’s gearcase
out of the water by using its tilt feature. Depending
on the model, refer to Tilting.
