Do not attempt to use the power tilt
switch to tilt the outboard motor
down while the tilt lock lever is in the
lock position. Damage to the power
tilt system may occur.
To lower the outboard motor, tilt up,
move the tilt lock lever to the FREE
position, then lower the outboard
motor to the desired position.
Use the tilt lever to raise and lower
the outboard motor as described on
p.
.
To raise the outboard motor out of
the water while the engine is stopped
and the boat is moored, or for
maximum clearance when beaching
or launching, use the power tilt
switch on the engine pan to tilt the
outboard motor as far as it will go,
move the tilt lock lever to the LOCK
position, then gently lower the
outboard motor until the lever
contacts the stern bracket.
If more clearance is needed to swing
the tilt lock lever into the LOCK
position, rock the outboard motor
forward slightly by pulling on the
engine cover grip.
