Suzuki 9.9 HP DF9.9BTHS Outboard Motor

Suzuki's DF9.9BTHS is the short-shaft sibling to the BTHL2: the same 9.9 hp four-stroke with electric start and power tilt, but built around a 15-inch shaft for a lower transom. At 120.0000 pounds, it still carries the weight of the power-tilt hardware while running three pounds lighter than its long-shaft counterpart. Matching the shaft length to your boat Measure your transom before ordering, since a short-shaft motor will not sit at the right depth on a boat built for a longer one. The multi-function tiller grip manages steering, throttle response and tilt together, while a separate front-mounted lever lets you adjust how much resistance the steering has. Running gear on this version Shifting goes forward, neutral and reverse through a front-mounted lever, and a compact 3-blade propeller does the pushing at the stern. Electric start draws power from a built-in charging alternator, electronic fuel injection stands in for a carburetor, and the whole lower unit carries Suzuki's multi-layer corrosion resistance for saltwater use. Can the power tilt be adjusted without letting go of the throttle? Yes, both are controlled from the same tiller grip. Which shaft length does this particular model use? The short, 15-inch configuration. Suzuki backs this motor with a three-year warranty, and the box includes the usual 3.1-gallon tank, fuel line, manual, propeller and tool kit that ship with Suzuki's portable four-strokes.
