TRANSPORTING AND STORING THE OUTBOARD MOTOR
WARNING: Leaking fuel is a fire hazard. When transporting or storing the outboard motor, disconnect the
propane connector to prevent the possibility of fuel from leaking. Use care when transporting
the fuel tank whether in boat or car.
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.
Do not use the tilt support lever when trailering the boat. The outboard motor could shake loose from the tilt
support and fall. If the motor can not be trailered in the normal running position, use an additional support
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 position using a motor support device such
as a transom saver bar.
When transporting or storing the outboard motor while removed from a boat, keep the outboard motor
in the attitudes shown.
STORE IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION
