Manual Tilt System
TILT LOCK LEVER
The tilt lock lever is used to engage the reverse lock mechanism, and prevent
the outboard from lifting out of the water when operating in reverse gear due to
reverse propeller thrust. The tilt lock lever can be placed in two positions as
follows.
Release Position ‑ Placing the tilt lock lever up in the release position will allow
you to tilt up the outboard.
Lock Position ‑ Place the tilt lock lever down in the lock position whenever
operating the outboard.
