BASIC TILTING OPERATION
Models equipped with a gas assisted tilt system allows the operator
to lock the outboard at any tilt position from full down to full up.
This tilt system is designed to be adjusted when the outboard is
idling in neutral, or with the engine turned off.
Before operating, the outboard must be locked in its tilt position by
moving the lock lever to the lock position.
!
WARNING
Before operating, the outboard must be locked in its lock/run
position. Failure to lock the outboard in its lock/run position could
result in the outboard tilting up out of the water during
deceleration or while operating in reverse, resulting in possible
loss of boat control. Loss of boat control can result in serious
injury, death, or boat damage.
