SHALLOW WATER OPERATION

When operating your boat in shallow water, you can tilt the

outboard beyond the maximum trim range to prevent hitting

bottom.

1. Reduce engine speed below 2000 RPM.
2. Tilt outboard up. Make sure all the water intake holes stay

submerged at all times.

3. Operate the engine at slow speed only. If engine speed

exceeds 2000 RPM, the outboard will automatically return

down to the maximum trim range.

AUXILIARY TILT SWITCH

The auxiliary tilt switch can be used to tilt the outboard up or down

using the power trim system.
