OPERATION
antiventilation plate is level with the
water surface.
When cruising into a high wind, trim
the outboard motor down slightly to
level the boat and improve stability.
With a tail wind, trim the outboard
motor up slightly.
SRT and LRT Types
Use the power trim/tilt switch to trim
the outboard motor for the best
performance and stability.
You can use the power trim/tilt switch
at any time, whether the boat is
underway or stopped.
Press the UP or DN (down) side of
the switch to adjust the angle of the
outboard motor.
Refer to the trim meter (p. 29) for an
indication of whether the outboard
motor is trimmed high or low.
It is necessary to trim the angle of the
outboard motor to compensate for
changes in boat load, weight
distribution, water conditions, or
propeller selection.
Under normal conditions, the boat
will perform best when the
antiventilation plate is level with the
water surface.
When cruising into a high wind,
adjust the outboard motor down
slightly to level the boat and improve
stability. With a tail wind, adjust the
outboard motor up slightly.
Excessive trim/tilt angle during
operation can cause propeller
ventilation, overheating, and water
pump damage. This type of damage is
not covered by the
