up to check for motor contact.
Adjust further if necessary.
Return the motor to the normal running posi-
tion for each adjustment, and repeat your
check after each adjustment.
 WARNING
Adjusting the tilt limiter cam will not pre-
vent the outboard motor from tilting fully
up and contacting the motor well if the
motor's lower unit hits an object at high
speed. Such tilting could damage your
motor and boat and injure boat occu-
pants.
Keep all occupants away from the motor
when operating at high speed.
