WARNING! After tilting the outboard motor, be sure
to support it with the tilt support knob or tilt support
lever. Otherwise the outboard motor could fall back
down suddenly if oil in the power trim and tilt unit or
in the power tilt unit loses pressure.
Do not use the tilt support lever or knob when traile-
ring the boat. The outboard motor could shake loose
from the tilt support and fall. If the motor cannot be
trailered in the normal running position, use an addi-
tional support device to secure it in the tilt position.
