On the backside of the helm console is the helm breaker panel (see Figure 1-5 ).
This panel contains the circuit breakers for all circuits not protected by the cabin
D.C. Distribution Panel.
All breakers are covered with a waterproof boot for their protection. In the event a
breaker is tripped, investigate possible causes for circuit overload and then reset
by pressing in on the center of breaker.
1.1.5 Trim Tabs
With conventional drives trim tab rocker switches are located on the helm Pri-
mary Function Switch Panel. These switches control the operation of the port and
starboard trim tabs located in the transom, at the boat bottom. The trim tabs can
control the fore and aft “trim” and port and starboard “heel” of your boat while it
is on plane.
To lower the starboard bow, press the starboard switch at the top. To raise the
starboard bow, press the starboard switch at the bottom. The same works for the
port bow up and down.
Note: Pressing the starboard switch at the top
to lower the starboard bow will actually activate
the port trim tab to go down. The same works
for the port tab.
The Zeus drives come equipped with automatic
trim tabs. The trim tab panel is located outboard
of the helm. The tams can be manually adjust-
ed. Please refer to Section 3 of the Cummins
Marine Owner’s Manual for complete details
regarding trim tab operation.
1.1.6 Equipment Controls
At the top of the console is the compass . A
compass indicates the direction the bow of your
boat is headed. The compass in your Tiara 43
should be maintained and compensated by a
Tiara dealer, or other qualified marine service
facility, for magnetic variance associated with
operating your boat in your particular location.
Below the steering wheel, in the vertical face of the console, is the fire system
indicator. The fire extinguishing bottle for the system is located in the engine room,
on the forward bulkhead. For specific information on how the fire system works,
refer to the owner’s manual provided by the fire system manufacturer.
