Power Tilt Switch; Manual Relief Valve - TOHATSU BFT 75A Series Owner's Manual

CONTROLS AND FEATURES
You can use the power trim/tilt switch
anytime whether the boat is
underway, stopped, or the ignition
switch is in the OFF position. It is
necessary for the ignition switch to be
in the ON position for the trim meter
to indicate the outboard motor angle.
Trim the outboard motor to obtain the
best performance and stability (p.81).
Tilt the outboard motor for shallow
water operation, beaching, launching,
or mooring.
For dual mount outboard motors, tilt
them up at the same time.

Power Tilt Switch

(engine pan side)
POWER TILT SWITCH
The power tilt switch is located on the
engine pan. It is a rocker switch with
UP and DN (down) positions for
changing the angle of the outboard
motor.
The power tilt switch will operate
without turning the ignition switch
ON.
This switch is used with the engine
stopped to raise the outboard motor
for mooring, trailering, or
maintenance.

Manual Relief Valve

POWER MANUAL
(To hold) (To release)
MANUAL RELIEF VALVE
The outboard motor can be tilted
manually after opening the manual
relief valve. This allows the outboard
motor to be tilted up or down when
no battery is connected.
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.
