MANUAL TILTING
If the outboard cannot be tilted using the power trim/tilt switch, the outboard can
be manually tilted.
NOTE: The manual tilt release valve must be tightened before operating the
outboard to prevent the outboard from tilting up during reverse operation.
Turn out the manual tilt release valve three turns counterclockwise. This allows
manual tilting of the outboard. Tilt the outboard to the desired position and
tighten the manual tilt release valve.

port side (shown) or on the starboard side.
This switch can be used to tilt the outboard up or down using the power trim
system.

SHALLOW WATER OPERATION
When operating your boat in shallow water, you can tilt the outboard beyond
the maximum trim range to prevent hitting bottom.
1. Reduce the engine speed below 2000 RPM.
2. Tilt the outboard up. Make sure all the water intake holes stay submerged
at all times.
3. Operate the engine at slow speed only. If engine speed exceeds 2000
RPM, the outboard will automatically return down to the maximum trim
range.
