Trailering Outboard
WARNING
Excessive engine trim angle will result in insuffi-
cient water supply to water pump causing water
pump and/or powerhead overheating damage.
Make sure that water level is above gear housing
water intake holes whenever engine is running.
While operating “up” circuit, the cylinder rod will
continue to tilt the outboard to a full up position for
trailering.
