ADjUSTING THE LATCH COLLAR

Adjusting the Lower Unit for a Secure Stow

When the Motor is stowed, the Lower Unit should rest on the Fall Away Ramps, 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.
1
a. Before transporting the boat over water or land,
stow the motor to determine where the Lower
Unit rests on the Fall Away Ramps.
NOTE: The correct positioning of the Lower Unit
will place it directly on the Fall Away Ramps.
b. If the Lower Unit does not sit on the Fall Away
Ramps, deploy the motor, and stow it again.
c. Be sure to press the Stow Deploy Lever and
adjust the Motor to allow it to rest on the Fall
Away Ramps.
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.
When the motor is being transported, it is important to place the Depth Collar snug against the Lift Assist Housing and
tighten. This provides a secure stow and holds the motor in place during transportation when it is subject to high levels of
shock and vibration. Failure to secure the motor may result in injury or damage to the unit.
