The tilt lock lever is used to support
the outboard motor in the fully-raised
position.
When the boat is to be moored for a
long time, tilt the outboard motor up
as far as it will go. Then move the tilt
lock lever to the LOCK position, and
gently lower the outboard motor until
the lever contacts the stern bracket.

CONTROLS AND FEATURES

Trim Tab

TRIM TAB BOLT
PROPELLER
The trim tab compensates for
''torque steer,'' which is a reaction of
the outboard motor to propeller
rotation.
If uncompensated, torque steer would
make the outboard motor tend to turn
to one side.
When the trim tab is correctly
adjusted (p.
69
), steering effort is
equal in either direction.
