The engine cover latches fasten the
engine cover to the outboard motor.
To remove the engine cover, unlatch
both front and rear latches, then lift
the engine cover off the outboard
motor.
To install the engine cover, place the
cover on the outboard motor, then
latch both front and rear latches
securely.
Check that nobody is under the
outboard motor before opening the
manual relief valve. If the manual
relief valve is loosened (turned
counterclockwise) when the outboard
motor is tilted up, the outboard motor
will suddenly tilt down.
Be sure the valve is closed before
operating the outboard motor. If the
valve is not closed, the outboard
motor will tilt up when operated in
reverse.
The outboard motor can be tilted
manually after opening the manual
relief valve. This feature enables the
outboard motor to be tilted up or
down when no battery is connected.
For manual tilting, use a flat blade
screwdriver to turn the valve
counterclockwise 3 and a half turns.
Close the valve firmly after
positioning the outboard motor.
