Manual Tilt System Removal
CAUTION
Remove cowling and remove all spark plug leads from spark plugs to prevent acci-
dental starting while servicing outboard.
WARNING
Service or installation of the tilt system may result in loss of pressure in the shock
cylinder. If the outboard is not in the full down position, such loss of pressure will
cause the engine to fall to the full down position with a potential for damaging en-
gine or causing personal injury. To avoid such injury support outboard in the up po-
sition using tilt lock lever.
WARNING
Manual tilt system is pressurized. Accumulator must be removed when shock rod
is in the full up position, prior to servicing, otherwise oil spray-back may occur.
1. Support outboard in the up position using tilt lock lever.
2. Remove link rod.
3. Position piece of wood under transom bracket instead of tilt lock for access of removing
pin. Use suitable punch to remove (DRIVE DOWN) upper dowel pin. Retain dowel pin.
