The outboard motor can be tilted
manually after opening the manual
relief valve. This feature enables the
outboard motor to be tilted up or
down when no battery is connected.
For manual tilting, use a screwdriver
to turn the valve counterclockwise 1
or 2 turns. Close the valve firmly
after positioning the outboard motor.
Be sure the valve is closed before
operating the outboard motor. If the
valve is not closed, the outboard
motor will tilt up when operated in
reverse.
Check that nobody is under the
outboard motor before opening the
manual relief valve. If the manual
relief valve is loosened (turned
counterclockwise) when the outboard
motor is tilted up, the outboard motor
will suddenly tilt down.

ENGINE COVER LATCH
The engine cover latch fastens the
engine cover to the outboard motor.
To remove the engine cover, pull the
engine cover latch to the unlocked
position, then lift the engine cover
straight up from the outboard motor.
To install the engine cover, place the
cover on the outboard motor, and
push down evenly.
The cover should be tight at the mid-
case point. If the cover is loose or
difficult to secure, an adjustment
may be necessary. Please see the
shop manual or your Honda Marine
dealer for adjustment.
