Upgraded to a 15 EFI

[Blackhawk202]

Recently upgraded to a mercury 2019 15 HP EFI XL Shaft power tilt electric start (previous was merc manual tilt manual start xl shaft). Today I mounted it on my transom but the tiller handle does not clear when tilting up. Is there an adjustment I am missing?

It is a 2017 blackhawk 202. That is how the dealer rigs all of them. Here is a photo of the previous motor rigged on it.

Maybe you can mount it a little bit higher by shimming under the transom bracket....

If the tiller has been fully raised it's the the max it will go. Both engines are different models...

Happy Boating

Will the engine be fine without the use of the support lever while lifted up?
