TRAILERING OUTBOARD MOTOR
The motor should be trailered and stored in
the normal running position. If there is insuffi-
cient road clearance in this position, then trail-
er the motor in the tilt position using a motor
support device such as a transom saver bar.
For further details, consult your Yamaha
dealer.

8 Never get under the lower unit while it
is tilted, even if a motor support bar is
used. Severe injury could occur if the
outboard accidentally falls.
8 USE CARE when transporting fuel tank,
whether in a boat or car.
DO NOT fill fuel container to maximum
capacity. Gasoline will expand consider-
ably as it warms up and can build up pres-
sure in the fuel container. This can cause
fuel leakage and a potential fire hazard.
