    fld the lower unit up and the lever goes over it and holds the lower folded in the up positio.

    Yes, this lever and pocket holds the gearcase in the folded position so it doesn’t just flop back down.  It is critical that the tip of the gearcase is not snapped off though,  or the latch won’t be able to help.
