Moving the tilt lever to the TILT
position allows the outboard motor to
be tilted and moving the tilt lever to
the RUN (LOCK) position locks the
outboard motor in the desired
position. Use the tilt lever to
temporarily tilt the outboard motor
when the boat is operating in shallow
water, or mooring in shallow water.
The tilt lever must be in the RUN
(LOCK) position before operating
the outboard motor or the motor
could tilt up when operating in
reverse.
The rocker type power tilt switch has
UP and DN (down) positions for
changing the angle of the outboard
motor.
During shallow water operation,
beaching, launching, or mooring,
proceed at low speed with a small
throttle opening and tilt the motor up
as necessary (p. ).59
