PROKICKER CENTERING STRAPS FEATURE
ProKicker centering straps (if equipped) will center the outboard and prevent
the outboard from turning while the outboard is tilted up.
The ProKicker centering straps will prevent the outboard from turning when
tilted up. If using a steering tie bar to a second outboard, disconnect the
steering tie bar to allow steering of the second outboard.
Avoid injury or death from loss of steering control. ProKicker centering straps
prevent the outboard from turning when tilted up. If using a steering tie bar to
a second outboard, disconnect the steering tie bar to allow steering of the
second outboard before operating the boat.
