POWER TRIM/TILT SWITCH
The power trim/tilt adjusts the motor
angle in relation to the transom. The
power trim/tilt switch is located on the
side of the bottom engine cowling. Push-
ing the switch “UP” trims the motor up,
then tilts the motor up. Pressing the
switch “DN” tilts the motor down and
trims the motor down. When the switch
button is released, the motor will stop in
its current position.
w
Use the power trim/tilt switch located on
the bottom engine cowling only when
the boat is at a complete stop with the
engine off. Attempting to use the cowl-
ing-mounted power trim/tilt switch while
the boat is moving could increase the risk
of falling overboard and could distract
the operator, increasing the risk of colli-
sion with another boat or an obstacle.
NOTE:
Refer to the section “Adjusting Trim
Angle” and “Tilting Up/Down” for instruc-
tions on usage.
