Securing Outboard When Trailering
Place outboard in vertical operating position if ground
clearance is adequate.
If additional ground clearance is needed, use an outboard
support bar to secure motor. Do not rely on tilt support
lever for trailering.
Shift outboard to forward gear to prevent propeller from
spinning freely in wind while vehicle is moving.
See engine operator’s manual for other precautions and
instructions related to trailering.
