ADjUSTING THE LOWER UNIT FOR A SECURE STOW
a. Before transporting the boat over water or land,
stow the motor to determine where the Lower
Unit rests on the Mount Ramp.
1
b. If the Lower Unit does not sit on the Mount
Ramps, refer to the Adjusting the Latch Collar
section of this manual. Making adjustments to
the Latch Collar will help the Lower Unit stay on
the Mount Ramps as it is captured by the Deploy
Assist Lever.
When the Motor is stowed, the Lower Unit should rest on the Mount Ramp, a part of the Motor Mount. It is recommended to
secure the motor using the following instructions to avoid damage to the motor and shaft from vibrations during transport.
Adjusting the Lower Unit for a Secure Stow
NOTE:
The correct positioning of the Lower Unit
will place it directly on the Mount Ramps.
NOTE:
Slide the Depth Collar down and secure it
against the top of the Steering Housing when stowed
to secure the motor in place and prevent accidental
deployment.

CAUTION
The Lower Unit should be placed on the Mount Ramps every
time the motor is transported. If the Lower Unit is improperly
placed, either above or below the Motor Rest Area, damage
to the Lower Unit or Shaft will occur and the Shaft will
be incorrectly captured. Not following the recommended
placement for the Lower Unit will cause damage to the product
and void your product warranty.
