4. Transporting and storing
4.1 Transporting
The outboard motor should be trailed 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.
CAUTION:
Do not use the tilt support lever or knob when trailing the boat.
The outboard motor could shake loose from the tilt support and fall.
WARNING:
Never get under the lower unit while it is tilted, even if a motor support bar is used.
When transporting or storing the outboard motor while removed from a boat, keep the outboard
motor in the attitude shown.
CAUTION:
Place a towel or something similar under the outboard motor to protect it from damage.
