Transporting and storing
outboard motor
EWM02620
WARNING
USE CARE when transporting fuel tank,
whether in a boat or car.
DO NOT fill fuel container to maximum
capacity. Gasoline will expand consid-
erably as it warms up and can build up
pressure in the fuel container. This can
cause fuel leakage and a potential fire
hazard.
Leaking fuel is a fire hazard. When
transporting and storing the outboard
motor, disconnect the fuel line from the
outboard motor to prevent fuel from
leaking.
Never get under the outboard motor
while it is tilted. Severe injury could oc-
cur if the outboard motor accidentally
falls.
Do not use the tilt support lever or knob
when trailering the boat. The outboard
motor could shake loose from the tilt
support and fall. If the outboard motor
cannot be trailered in the normal run-
ning position, use an additional sup-
port device to secure it in the tilt
position.

NOTICE
When storing the outboard motor for pro-
longed time, fuel must be drained from
the fuel tank. The deteriorated fuel could
clog the fuel line causing engine start dif-
ficulty or malfunction.
When storing or transporting the outboard
motor, make sure to follow the procedure list-
ed below.
Disconnect the fuel line from the outboard
motor.
Tighten the fuel tank cap and its air vent
screw.
When the outboard motor is tilted pro-
longed time for mooring or trailering the
boat, disconnect the fuel line from the out-
board motor. Tighten the fuel tank cap and
its air vent screw.
The outboard motor should be transported
and stored in the normal running position. If
there is insufficient road clearance in this po-
sition, then trailer the outboard motor in the
tilt position using a motor support device
such as a transom saver bar. Consult your
Yamaha dealer for further details.
