Trim tabs
Your 235 Conquest is equipped with electrically
powered trim tabs.
The trim tabs (See figure 2.20.1) are located on the
lower section of your transom and are used to trim the
list of your boat caused by uneven weight distribution,
too many persons on one side of the boat, or strong
cross winds. An untrimmed boat will:
• Decrease operator visibility
• Reduce fuel economy
• Increase wear on your engine.
While accelerating there is some loss of forward
visibility before the boat is on plane, the trim tabs
can be used to adjust for forward visibility while
underway.
OPERATION
The trim tabs are controlled by rocker switches located
on the center part of your console above the throttle
control. Short momentary bursts of the rockers will
achieve proper attitude of the hull. The trim tab switch is
marked “bow up” and “bow down”.
Using the trim tabs will:
• Level the boat; fore and aft.
• Reduce resistance in the steering system.
• Give you a smoother more stable ride.
• Speed will increase and there will be less strain
on the engines.
Ensure continuous visibility of other boats,
swimmers and obstacles during bow-up
transition to planing. Adjust engine to an
intermediate trim as soon as boat is on plane to
avoid possible ejection due to boat spinout. Do
not attempt to turn boat when the engine is
trimmed extremely down/under/in.
It is recommended that you check the level of
the fluid in the reservoir before using your boat.
NOTICE
Maintenance
The trim tabs are a completely sealed unit and are
waterproof and maintenance free. Aside from a
general cleaning when the boat is out of the water
you should also inspect the planes and hinges for
marine growth; remove as neccessary.
