TRIM AND TILT
TRIM AND TILT SERVICE
Remove the unit from the stern brackets far
enough to remove the ground lead from the pump
motor mounting screw.
Disassembly
Thoroughly clean the unit before disassembling.
Scrub all outside surfaces with a stiff brush and
hot, soapy water to prevent surface dirt from con-
taminating internal parts.
Always use a lint free shop cloth when handling
power trim/tilt components.
If painting the unit is required, paint it after it is
completely assembled. Painting of individual com-
ponents may cause flakes of paint to enter the
hydraulic passages during assembly. Tape the
trim/tilt piston rods before painting.
IMPORTANT:
Before removing manual release
valve, relieve pressure by fully extending cylinder.
Screw the manual release valve in. Remove the
retaining ring using a small pick or screwdriver.
Discard the retaining ring.
Slowly remove the manual release valve. There
may be pressure behind the valve—wear safety
glasses.
Inspect the manual release valve. Discard the
O-rings on the housing.

WARNING
There may be high pressure behind some
power trim valves. To avoid injury when
removing manual release valve, be sure to
cover valve with a shop cloth until the
pressure is released. Wear safety glasses.
