Installation Guide
- Tilt your outboard motor to the full "up" position.
- Identify the main trim/tilt piston rod. Ensure it is clean and free of debris.
- Slide the M-Y Wedge Outboard Motor Support over the exposed trim/tilt piston.
- Firmly seat the support, ensuring it is centered and stable on the piston.
- Slowly lower the outboard motor until its weight rests securely on the M-Y Wedge. The motor should be stable and not bounce.
- Before trailering, double-check that the motor is firmly supported to prevent movement.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
Q: How do I confirm this support fits my engine?
A: This support is designed for outboard motors with 3-RAM trim/tilt systems. Please check the "Compatible Engine Models" table to verify that your engine's brand and horsepower range are listed. This part is a direct replacement for HeuroFosh 23TS and M-YM123.
Q: Will this work on a 2-RAM or single-ram tilt system?
A: No, this model is engineered specifically for 3-RAM trim/tilt systems and will not fit or function correctly on systems with a different number of rams.
Q: What is the purpose of using a motor support for trailering?
A: It protects your hydraulic trim/tilt system from damage caused by road shock and bouncing during transport. It creates a stable, cushioned buffer between the motor and the transom, reducing stress on critical components.
Q: Is the material durable enough for saltwater environments?
A: Yes. The support is constructed from a high-tech plastic and EPDM rubber blend that is UV protected and saltwater safe, ensuring long-lasting performance in harsh marine conditions.
