TRANSPORTING AND STORING OUTBOARD MOTOR w
Leaking fuel is a fire hazard. When transporting and storing the outboard motor, close the air vent screw and fuel cock to prevent fuel from leaking.
EMK20210*
TRAILERING OUTBOARD MOTOR
The motor should be trailered and stored in the normal running position. If there is insufficient road clearance in this position, then trailer the motor in the tilt position using a motor support device such as a transom saver bar. For further details, consult your Yamaha dealer.

w
8 Never get under the lower unit while it is tilted, even if a motor support bar is used. Severe injury could occur if the outboard accidentally falls. 8 USE CARE when transporting fuel tank, whether in a boat or car. DO NOT fill fuel container to maximum capacity. Gasoline will expand considerably as it warms up and can build up pressure in the fuel container. This can cause fuel leakage and a potential fire hazard.
cC
Do not use the tilt support lever/knob when trailering the boat. The outboard motor could shake loose from the tilt support and fall. If the motor can not be trailered in the down position, use an additional support device to secure it in the up position. 4-3

Clamp handle mounting model When transporting or storing the outboard motor while removed from a boat, fold the tiller handle and lean the motor on the tiller handle to keep in a horizontal position.
cC
Keep the power unit higher than the propeller at all times. Otherwise, cooling water can run into the cylinder, which could result in damage. NOTE: Place a towel or the like under the outboard motor to protect it from damage.

STORING OUTBOARD MOTOR
When storing your Yamaha outboard for prolonged periods of time, (2 months or longer), several important procedures must be performed to prevent expensive damage. It is advisable to have your outboard serviced by an authorized Yamaha dealer prior to storage. However, the following procedures can be performed by you, the owner, with a minimum of tools.

cC
8 To prevent problems which can be caused by oil entering the cylinder from the sump, keep the engine in the attitude shown when transporting and storing it. 8 Do not place the engine on its side before the cooling water has drained from it completely, or water may enter the cylinder through the exhaust port and cause problems. 8 Store the engine in a dry, well-ventilated place, not in direct sunlight.

Filling Fuel Tank Fill the fuel tank with fresh fuel and add one ounce of "Yamaha Fuel Conditioner and Stabilizer" (Part No. NOTE: The use of "Yamaha Fuel Conditioner and Stabilizer" eliminates the need to drain the fuel system. Consult your Yamaha dealer or other qualified mechanic if the fuel system is to be drained instead.
