Using Your Evinrude E-TEC Outboard
Tilt Support Lever
If you intend to leave the outboard tilted for a
period of time, engage the tilt support lever.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT use the tilt support le-
ver while trailering. Refer to Trailering on
page 39.
1) Tilt the outboard UP using the trailering tilt
switch.
2) Flip the tilt support lever down.
3) Lower the outboard until the tilt support le-
ver rests solidly on the stern brackets.
When you are finished tilting the outboard,
disengage the tilt support lever:
1) Tilt the outboard UP.
2) Flip the tilt support lever up.
3) Lower the outboard to operating position.
Manual Release Valve
If needed, the outboard will tilt up or down
manually, using the manual release valve.
1) Turn the manual release screw counter-
clockwise, slowly (about 3 1/2 turns), until
it lightly contacts its retaining ring.
2) Reposition the outboard.
3) Tighten the manual release valve to hold
the outboard in its new position.
4) Thrust rod is normally in the lowest posi-
tion, position 1.

WARNING
Keep everyone clear of a tilted outboard
when backing out the manual release
screw. The outboard could drop sud-
denly and forcibly. Be sure to tighten the
manual release screw after manually
repositioning the outboard. Tightening
the screw also reactivates the outboard’s
impact protection and reverse thrust
capability.
