STORAGE PRECAUTIONS
HOIST
HOOKS
Select a well-ventilated storage area.
If possible, avoid storage areas with
high humidity.
If storing a container of gasoline,
store it away from any appliance that
operates with a flame, such as a
furnace, water heater, or clothes
dryer. Also avoid any area with a
spark producing electric motor, or
where power tools are operated.
OUTBOARD
MOTOR STAND
If the outboard motor will be
removed from the boat for storage,
we recommend storing it vertically
by mounting it on a commercially
available stand.
