Steering friction adjuster
A friction device provides adjustable resis-
tance to the steering mechanism, and can be
set according to operator preference. An ad-
juster lever is located on the bottom of the til-
ler handle bracket.
To increase resistance, turn the lever to the
port side “A”.
To decrease resistance, turn the lever to the
starboard side “B”.
WARNING
EWM00041
Do not overtighten the friction adjuster. If
there is too much resistance, it could be
difficult to steer, which could result in an
accident.
If the resistance does not increase even
when the lever is turned to the port side “A”,
make sure that the nut is tightened to the
specified torque.
TIP:
Steering movement is blocked when the
adjuster lever is set to the “A” position.
Check the tiller handle for smooth move-
ment when the lever is turned to the star-
board side “B”.
Do not apply lubricants such as grease to
the friction areas of the steering friction ad-
juster.

Power trim and tilt switch on remote
control or tiller handle
The power trim and tilt system adjusts the
outboard motor angle in relation to the tran-
som. Pressing the switch “
” (up) trims the
outboard motor up, and then tilts it up. Press-
ing the switch “
” (down) tilts the outboard
motor down and trims it down. When the
switch is released, the outboard motor will
stop in its current position.
For instructions on using the power trim and
tilt switch, see pages 65 and 68.
