Just did the break-in hours on the Mercury tiller ProKicker today, and I have a few questions I don't think are addressed in the manual.

1) when trailering, should the tension be increased to keep it from swinging back and forth, and is it best to put the motor in gear to prevent the prop from turning?

2) when not using the kicker and having it trimmed up, should it be in gear to prevent the prop from turning.

3) Should the gas line be removed from the kicker after the day is through?

4) I have the connecting rod so that I can steer the tiller kicker by steering the main motor. For this connecting rod, should the end with the bend close to the end be by the main motor, by the kicker, or does it not matter? Do folks leave this bar connected even when the kicker is trimmed up?

TIA, Mike
