Trimming outboard motor
WARNING
EWM00741
Excessive trim for the operating condi-
tions (either trim up or trim down) can
cause boat instability and can make
steering the boat more difficult. This in-
creases the possibility of an accident. If
the boat begins to feel unstable or is hard
to steer, slow down and/or readjust the
trim angle.
The trim angle of the outboard motor helps
determine the position of the bow of the boat
in the water. Correct trim angle will help im-
prove performance and fuel economy while
reducing strain on the engine. Correct trim
angle depends upon the combination of
boat, engine, and propeller. Correct trim is
also affected by variables such as the load in
the boat, sea conditions, and running speed.

Adjusting trim angle (Power trim and
tilt)
WARNING
EWM00754
Be sure all people are clear of the out-
board motor when adjusting the trim
angle. Body parts can be crushed be-
tween the motor and the clamp bracket
when the motor is trimmed or tilted.
Use caution when trying a trim position
for the first time. Increase speed gradu-
ally and watch for any signs of instabil-
ity or control problems. Improper trim
angle can cause loss of control.
If equipped with a power trim and tilt
switch located on the bottom cowling,
use the switch only when the boat is at
