The trim tab fluid should be checked often. Keep
the fluid level between the marks on the trim tab
pump reservoir.
If your boat will be left in saltwater for extended
periods, it will be necessary to install anodes on
the trim tab planes to prevent galvanic corro-
sion. Galvanic corrosion is the corrosion process
occurring when different metals are submerged
in an electrolyte. Sea water is an electrolyte and
submerged metal components must be properly
protected. The anodes will need to be monitored
and changed when they are 75% of their original
size.
Refer to the trim tab owner’s manual for additional
maintenance information, fluid specifications and
operating instructions.
