Adjusting trolling speed
When the control lever is either in the forward position or in
the reverse position and the throttle is in the fully closed po-
sition, you can randomly adjust the trolling speed between
600 r/min and 1000 r/min by increasing or decreasing it ap-
proximately by 50 r/min. The display will show the engine
speed when the engine speed is increased from the fully
closed position during trolling speed setting mode. When
the throttle is returned to the fully closed position, the display
will show the trolling speed again. When the engine is turned
off or when the engine speed exceeds 3000 r/min, trolling
speed setting mode will be released.
For details, follow the instructions on the CL7 Display.
TIP:
Trolling is affected by currents and other operating condi-
tions and may differ from the actual engine speed.
When warming up a cold engine, the trolling speed cannot
be decreased below the specified engine idle speed.
EMU27822
Stopping engine
Before stopping the engine, first let it cool off for a few min-
utes at idle or low speed. Stopping the engine immediately
after operating at high speed is not recommended.

Trimming outboard motor
WARNING
EWM00741
Excessive trim for the operating conditions (either trim
up or trim down) can cause boat instability and can
make steering the boat more difficult. This increases the
possibility of an accident. If the boat begins to feel un-
stable 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 an-
gle will help improve 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.
EMU27889
Adjusting trim angle (Power trim and tilt)
WARNING
EWM00754
Be sure all people are clear of the outboard motor
when adjusting the trim angle. Body parts can be
crushed between 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 gradually and watch for any
signs of instability or control problems. Improper trim
angle can cause loss of control.
