WARNING
Never get under the lower unit while it is
tilted, even if a motor support bar is used.
Severe injury could occur if the outboard
motor accidentally falls.
CAUTION:
Do not use the tilt support lever when tr
-
ailering the boat. The outboard motor could
shake loose from the tilt support
and fall.
If the motor cannot be trailered inthe nor
-
mal running position, use an additional su
pport device to secure it in the tilt
position.
The outboard motor should be trailered and
stored in the normal running position. If there
is insufficient road clearance in this position,
then trailer the outboard motor in the tilt posi-
tion using a motor support device such as a
transom saver bar.

Transporting and storing
outboard motor
WARNING
●
Leaking fuel is a fire hazard. When trans-
porting and storing the outboard motor,
close the air vent screw and fuel cock to
prevent fuel from leaking.
●
USE CARE when transporting fuel tank,
whether in a boat or car.
●
DO NOT fill fuel container to maximum
capacity. Gasoline will expand consider-
ably as it warms up and can build up
pressure in the fuel container. This can
cause fuel leakage and a potential fire
hazard.
CAUTION:
●
To prevent problems which can be
caused by oil entering the cylinder from
the sump, keep the outboard motor in
the attitude shown when transporting
and storing it. If storing or transporting
the outboard motor on its side (not up-
right), put it on a cushion after draining
the engine oil.
●
Do not place the outboard motor on its
side before the cooling water has
drained from it completely, otherwise
water may enter the cylinder through the
exhaust port and cause engine trouble.
●
Store the outboard motor in a dry, well-
ventilated place, not in direct sunlight.
