Gearcase

Drain and refill the gearcase lubricant (refer to Gearcase
Lubrication).

Positioning Outboard for Storage

Store outboard in an upright (vertical) position to allow water to
drain out of the outboard.
Storing the outboard in a tilted position can damage the
outboard. Water trapped in the cooling passages or rain water
collected in the propeller exhaust outlet in the gearcase can
freeze. Store the outboard in the full down position.

Battery Storage

Follow the battery manufacturer's instructions for storage
and recharging.
Remove the battery from the boat and check water level.
Recharge if necessary.
Store the battery in a cool, dry place.
Periodically check the water level and recharge the battery
during storage.
