Trailering Boat/Outboard ‑ Models with Power Tilt
Trailer your boat with the outboard tilted down in a vertical operating position.
If additional ground clearance is required, the outboard should be tilted up
using an accessory outboard support device. Refer to your local dealer for
recommendations. Additional clearance may be required for railroad crossings,
driveways and trailer bouncing.
IMPORTANT: Do not rely on the power tilt system or tilt support lever to
maintain proper ground clearance for trailering. The outboard tilt support lever
is not intended to support the outboard for trailering.
Shift the outboard to forward gear. This prevents the propeller from spinning
freely.
Trailering Boat/Outboard ‑ Models without Power Tilt
Trailer your boat with the outboard tilted down in a vertical operating position.
If additional ground clearance is required, the outboard should be tilted up
using the shallow water drive/trailering bracket. Additional clearance may be
required for railroad crossings, driveways, and trailer bouncing.
IMPORTANT: The tilt lock lever should be used to lock the outboard down
when trailering. This will prevent the outboard from bouncing and causing
possible damage to the outboard.
