Transom Angle Adjustment - Honda BFP8D Owner's Manual

CARRYING
HANDLE
(Storage position)
Attach the stern bracket to the
transom and tighten the clamp screws.
Push the carrying handle into the
storage position.
Attach a rope from the boat to the
hole in the stern bracket. This will
help to prevent accidental loss of the
outboard motor.
You may further secure the outboard
motor by bolting the stern bracket to
the boat transom. Use the optional
mounting bolt and nut kit or other
good quality stainless steel bolts,
nuts, and washers. Apply silicone
sealant to the bolt holes.
