MOTOR CADDY™ Outboard Hoisting Harness is the safe and easy way
to move an outboard motor. Provides a balanced, secure handle for easier
carrying, hoisting or moving of heavy, cumbersome motors.
Fits 2-stroke and 4-stroke outboards up
to 15 h.p. Motor Caddy is sized to quick-
ly attach onto most outboards from 2–15
horsepower. (Not recommended for air
cooled motors).
Design features a long harness strap to
fit 4-stroke motors and a shorter security
strap for extra safety when used on
today’s streamlined engine cases. Self-
centering handle serves as the lifting
point for lanyards and hoists or balanced
lifting by hand.
Made of UV resistant materials that will
endure the marine environment. Tough
enough to be left installed on a semi-
permanent basis. Glass filled nylon
buckles insure that Motor Caddy is easy
to install and remove, allowing quick
access to the motor.

Note: On smaller motors,
it may be necessary to trim
excess webbing.
The harness may be installed with
buckle on either side of motor. The
webbing is one continuous piece;
pulling on one side will tension the
other side.
With attachment buckle free (open),
place the loop side over the motor
and position underneath. Make sure
there are no twists. Pull on the stainless ring until the loop side becomes
taut.
Feed the webbing with the stainless
ring underneath the motor until it
meets the attachment buckle.
Make sure there are no twists.
Placing the adjustment buckle
approximately 11/
2" (38mm) from the
end of the webbing will keep extra
webbing from flopping about, providing a clean installation.
Slide the attachment buckle through
the stainless ring (buckle must be at
an angle to slip through the stainless ring). Connect buckle together.
The tension of the webbing may
now be changed using the adjustment buckle. The optimum tension is
a snug fit all around while still allowing the handle to be grasped.
Webbing may have to be slid
through handle to achieve a centered fit.
