Picked up a new tin boat (alumacraft super hawk XL). Motor tilt needs fluids and air ran out of it. It is resting on the trailering tabs. I cannot get the weight off of them to get the motor down. I think there must be pressure in the cylinder that I cannot overcome.
There is 2 seals on the back and one hex underneath. Is the hex under related to the cylinder fluid? I am going to pick up some fluid tomorrow but figure I need to get things freed up before I can go much further.
I did find the pressure release valve. Hidden behind the bracket. I will unbolt the base of the tilt trim to swing it out and see if letting pressure off helps. Still stuck on those safety tabs for tonight
