Mooring, Beaching, Launching - Honda BF75D Owner's Manual

MOORING, BEACHING,
LAUNCHING
Before tilting up, leave the outboard
motor in the running position for one
minute after stopping the engine to
drain the water from inside the
engine.
Stop the engine and disconnect the
fuel hose from the outboard motor
before tilting the outboard motor.
To raise the outboard motor out of the
water while the engine is stopped and
the boat is moored, or for maximum
clearance when beaching or
launching, use the power tilt switch
on the engine pan to tilt the outboard
motor up as far as it will go. Move the
tilt lock lever to the LOCK position,
and then gently lower the outboard
motor until the lever contacts the
stern bracket. Use the power tilt
switch to fully shorten the trim rods.
To lower the outboard motor, tilt up
using the power tilt switch, then
move the tilt lock lever to the FREE
position, and then lower the outboard
motor to the desired position.
