FEATURES AND CONTROLS
SHALLOW WATER OPERATION
When operating your boat in shallow water, you can tilt the
outboard beyond the maximum trim range to prevent hitting
bottom.
1. Reduce engine speed below 2000 RPM.
2. Tilt outboard up. Make sure all the water intake holes stay
submerged at all times.
3. Operate the engine at slow speed only. With the outboard
tilted past 20° trim limit, the warning horn will sound and
engine speed will be automatically limited to approximately
2000 RPM. The outboard must be tilted (trimmed) down below
the maximum trim range to allow operation above 2000 RPM.
