Do not use the tiller handle as a
lever to raise the outboard motor.
Applying excessive f orce to the
tiller handle can damage it.
If the outboard motor is tilted in
the reverse position, crankcase oil
will enter the cylinder and may
cause dif f icult starting or may
prevent the engine f rom being
cranked.
Stop the engine and turn the fuel
valve lever to the OFF position.
To raise the outboard motor out of
the water while the boat is moored, or
for maximum clearance when
beaching or launching, tilt the
outboard motor to the 75° position.
Stop the engine before tilting the
outboard motor. The 75° position is
not an operating position.
With the outboard motor in the
forward position, tilt the outboard
motor using the front and rear
carrying handles on the engine
cover. The spring-loaded tilt lever
will automatically move into
position and hold the outboard
motor when it reaches
approximately 75°.
Close the fuel tank vent by turning
the vent knob OFF position.
Adjust the steering friction bolt to
keep the outboard motor from
moving.
