I have a 120 force. How do I release the hydraulic tilt and trim so I can raise the motor by hand?

Re: Stupid Question

Why do you want to raise it by hand? Why don't you just use the motor? jk. Somewhere, I think on the left side looking at the back of the motor there is a plastic screw that releases the pressure, I think. I don't remember exactly, but when you find it and take it out, you can lift it by hand. Be careful taking it out, it may be under pressure since the motor is down. GL

kev-79, thanks I will take a look. My wireing is off as I am overhauling motor. But also want to change impeller so need to raise motor. I know there should be a release value somewhere but I couldn't find it, as I was on computer checking stocks, thought I would ask on iboats.

Re: Stupid Question

not all force's have a manual release (depends on year) you may have to jump it with a couple of wires and a good battery.
