10 Anti-grounding Mode
When the boat runs in shallow water or in complicated underwater condi-
tions, it may meet grounding dangers. Setting the outboard to anti-grounding
mode will protect the outboard motor from damage if the outboard hits sub-
merged reefs or rocks. In anti-grounding mode, the underwater part of the
outboard is flexible in tilting direction and the motor will automatically tilt up
if it hits something underwater.
To set the outboard in anti-grounding mode:
Step1: Pull the beaching pin to the limit and hold, then pull the trim release
lever to the upmost position.

Never turn the throttle backward when the outboard is in anti-grounding
mode.
