GENERAL INFORMATION
TRIM ROD
The position of the trim rod determines the angle of the outboard motor in relation to the transom .
TILT LOCK MECHANISM
The tilt support lock keeps the outboard motor in the tilted up position. If the outboard engine needs to be
tilted up out of the water or to get the propeller higher than the bottom of the boat, unlock the tilt lock
mechanism as shown and tilt the engine upwards. The tilt lock mechanism will engage and lock the engine
in three possible positions. To lower the engine, turn the lock lever back to the lock position. Then lift the
engine slightly to allow lock mechanism to disengage, then carefully lower the engine all the way down.
WARNING: Do not use the tilt support bar when trailering the boat. The outboard motor could shake loose
from the tilt support and fall. If the motor cannot be trailered in the normal running position, use
an additional support device to secure it in the tilt position.
TOP COVER LOCK LEVER
Pull the lock lever upwards from the bottom and unhook from the top cover. Then lift the cover from the rear
and remove from the front hook. When installing the cover, make sure the front hook is securely inserted in
it’s slot, then lock the rear lever into place. Check to be sure the rubber seal fits properly on the lower cowling.
Then lock the cover by moving the lock lever downward.
CARRYING HANDLES
Carrying handles are provided on the front and rear of the outboard motor. The handles enable you to carry
the outboard motor with two hands.
