When trailering a boat with the
outboard motor attached, always
disconnect the fuel line from the

The preferred method is to leave the
engine in the normal running position,
but if there is insufficient road
clearance, you can tilt the outboard
motor using a commercially available
outboard motor support bar available
through your dealer. Refer to the
manufacturer’s instructions for using
an outboard motor support bar.
