You must remove seven bolts facing upward from the gearcase and disconnect the shift rod at the top under the carburetors.

The seven bolts are located as follows:

Two on each side;
One holding the trim tab;
One hidden above the trim tab;
One in front of the trim tab.

Mark the position of the trim tab so that you can replace it exactly as it was.

The shift rod is released by pulling the clip from the starboard side of the engine, and pushing the shift lever towards the center.

Try not to turn the shift rod during the whole process. It is threaded for adjusting up and down, but best left alone.

Note that among other housekeeping tasks, you might consider changing the inner gearcase to exhaust housing seal if it is worn. In any event, tape or glue the seal in place during reassembly so that it will not slip. After tightening, friction will hold it in place.
