See full version: How to Lift an Outboard Motor
Place the motor in neutral. Most outboard boats that use power lifts are steering wheel boats. Look for a button or lever on the control panel marked as the lift or "trim."
Put the motor into neutral. If the boat has the speed control along the steering area, push the throttle to the neutral position. If the motor has the speed control on a shaft sticking out from the motor, turn the handle to the neutral setting.
Set the lock bar to hold the motor up and out of the water. The lock bar is typically found under the pivot, near the top of the transom mounting bracket. Push the lever so the engine stays upright and out of the water.
Grip the lift handle and place your leg against the transom as a brace. Lift the handle up and back toward you. The engine lifts via a pivot attached to the transom, and the lift handle is placed in a position to use mechanical advantage when lifting the heavy motor up and out of the water.
Outboard boats have an engine mounted to the outside of the boat via a transom. The transom is the flat back section on the rear of the boat that supports the outboard engine and typically has a pivot designed for the lifting and lowering of the motor. When docking the boat or heading into shallow waters, it is advisable to lift the motor partially or completely out of the water. Accomplish this manually or by using the boat's lift drive.
Step to the side of the motor at the rear end of the boat. Locate the motor's lift handle, typically found at the back bottom of the motor cowling. The cowling is the engine cover. here

I've always talked at least one of my uncles into helping me manhandle my motor onto my pickup bed. The prospect of free beer gets a lot of work done where I come from [links]
2 guys can lift the engine.
When I've transported my motor in the bed of my truck, I've also placed an old tire down first and then rested the upper (engine block) end onto the tire. Easier to slide around to where you need it in the bed, and protects the various components that can be broken off. [links]

The OutboardLift consists of basically three straps, upper, forward and aft straps connected by tri-joints. The tri-joints will be low on the sides of the motor with the handle on the upper strap. Release the buckle on the forward strap, place the OutboardLift on the engine and bring the forward strap around front of engine, then buckle forward strap. Snug up straps after sliding handle along upper strap to top center. Adjust position on motor according to sketches. Keep tri-joints low on streamlined engines so that the forward and aft straps tightly encircle the lower body of the engine.
