If your boat is kept on the water it is beneficial to periodically slip your boat in order to inspect the hull
and any fittings, equipment, etc.
Do not use the tilt support lever or rely on the hydraulic tilt to support the outboard when trailering
the boat. The outboard can shake loose or the hydraulics may fail causing the motor to fall.
The outboard motor should be trailered and stored in the normal running position. If there is
insufficient road clearance in this position, then trailer the outboard motor in the tilt position using a
motor support device such as a transom saver bar.
