STEERING
FRICTION
ADJUSTER
When trailering or transporting the boat
with the motor attached, it is recom-
mended that the motor remain in the
normal run position.
(Tiller Handle Type)
Tighten the steering friction adjuster
securely to stop the motor's side to
side movement.
(Remote Control Type)
Use a motor support bar (refer to your
motor support bar manufacturer's
instructions) to stop the motor's side-
to-side movement.
If there is insufficient road clearance
with the motor in the normal run
position, then trailer the motor in the
tilted position using a motor support
bar (refer to your motor support bar
manufacrurer's instructions) or
remove the motor from the boat.
