1. To begin, determine where the
Lenco Trim Tab Kit will be installed.
Note: When laying out the desired
tab location, hold the tab against
the transom with the bottom of
the hinge knuckle 3/8" (.95 cm)
from the bottom of the transom,
approximately 1" to 4" (2.54 to 10.56
cm) in from the chine, and in line
with the hull. When mounting the
hinge to the hull make sure that the
inside corner of the hinge knuckle
is no closer than 2" (5.08 cm) to the
left or right of any strake edge. The
hinge may overlap a strake edge
as long as any corner of the hinge
knuckle is no closer than 2" (5.08
cm) to the left or right of the strake
edge. (see Fig.1). Transfer (trace) the
screw hole pattern onto the transom
for drilling, see step 2.
Note: Performance tabs should
be mounted with the tapered end
facing toward the center of the
boat.
2. Using the 3/16" (.48 cm) drill bit, drill
the previously marked hole locations
to a depth of 1-1/4" (3.17 cm).
Note: When drilling out the screw
hole pattern for the trim tab hinge
you may drill through the transom,
however the screws when installed
with 3M 5200 adhesive caulking will
seal the holes. All supplied screws
and fasteners are stainless steel. Do
not use any other type of alloy.
Mount the trim tab hinge to the
transom using provided #14 x 1-
1/4" (3.17 cm) stainless steel metal
screws. We recommend using 3M
5200 adhesive caulking to bed
the hinge and screws.
DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN.
3. Attach the lower mounting bracket
to the tab with the bolts, washers,
and nylon lock nuts provided.,
Attach the upper bracket to the
actuator using the 5/16-18 X 1-3/4"
(4.45 cm) large hex head bolt and
5/16-18 hex nut provided. Attach
the actuator to the lower bracket
using the 5/16-18 X 1-3/4" (4.45 cm)
large hex head bolt and 5/16-18 hex
(.79) nut provided.
In order to properly position the
upper bracket against the transom,
you must lift the trim tab so that
the trailing edge is approximately
