Manual relief valve
If the battery is dead, and the power trim &
tilt switch thus inoperative, open the man-
ual valve completely in the Manual direc-
tion. This will allow manual tilting of the
outboard motor.
ENOW00872-0
Make sure the manual relief valve is closed
before operating the outboard motor. If the
ENOF00891-0
manual relief valve is not closed, the out-
board motor will tilt up when operated in
reverse.
ENOW00873-0
Before opening the manual relief valve,
make sure nobody is under the outboard
motor. If the outboard motor is in the tilted
up position, it will tip down suddenly if the
manual relief valve is loosened in the "Man-
ual" direction.
