Lif ting the outboard motor by the
engine cover, or using the
installed outboard motor as a
handle or lever to move the boat,
can damage the outboard motor.
Remove the outboard motor from the
boat and secure the outboard motor
in either the vertical or horizontal
position shown on p. .
To carry, hold the outboard motor by
the carrying handle, or hold by the
carrying handle and the lug beneath
the engine cover lock latch, as shown.When trailering a boat with the
outboard motor attached, always
disconnect the fuel line from the
portable fuel tank and tighten the
steering friction bolt securely (p. ).
The preferred method is to leave the
engine in the normal running position,
but if there is insufficient road
clearance, you can tilt the outboard
motor using a commercially available
outboard motor support bar available
through your dealer. Refer to the
manufacturer’s instructions for using
an outboard motor support bar.
