Power Trim
Trim ranges
In order to utilize the information gained from the
trim instrument, it is essential to know about the dif-
ferent trim ranges and their uses. There are three trim
ranges:
Trim range
The trim range is used to obtain the best comfort at all
running speeds (from start to maximum speed).
Beach range
The beach range is used for running at reduced
speed in shallow water or where water depth is un-
certain.
WARNING! Max. permitted engine speed when
running in beach range is 1500 rpm. Make sure
the drive’s coolant inlet is never trimmed out of
the water.
Lift range
Lift range is used to lift the drive to maximum height,
but not when running . The range is used e.g. for trai-
ling. Power Trim has an automatic stop that cuts the
power when its end limit has been reached. The stop
is reset automatically when activating down trimming.
WARNING! Never run the engine with the drive
in lift range.
Digital trim instrument
The display window will show TRIM while the drive
angle* is between -5° and +6° (Trim range).
The display window will show BEACH while the drive
angle* is b6° and +30° (Beach range). LED
(1) lights orange.
While the drive angle* is over +30° (tilt range), the
LED (2) will light red. No text in display window.
*The number corresponds to the drive angle in relation to the ho-
rizontal (stationary boat). The lowest value shows that the drive is
at max trim in and the highest value that the drive is raised to max.
Observe that the lowest value can vary from boat to boat depending
on the angle of the transom.
