board motor while removed from a boat,
use an outboard motor stand.

tor horizontally cannot be avoided, tight-
en the clamp screws completely, place a
towel or something similar under the out-
board motor to protect it from damage,

attitude shown. If the front side of the out-
board motor is facing down, turn the
clamp bracket 90° so that it does not con-
tact the ground, and then turn the steer-
