Trim Tab Adjustment
Propeller steering torque will cause your boat to pull in one direction. This
steering torque is a normal result from your outboard not trimmed with the
propeller shaft parallel to the water surface. The trim tab can help to
compensate for this steering torque in many cases and can be adjusted within
limits to reduce any unequal steering effort.

NOTE: Trim tab adjustment will have little effect reducing steering torque if the
outboard is installed with the antiventilation plate approximately 50 mm (2 in.)
or more above the boat bottom.
TRIM TAB ADJUSTMENT
Operate your boat at normal cruising speed trimmed to desired position by
installing the tilt pin in the desired tilt pin hole. Turn your boat left and right and
note the direction the boat turns more easily.
If adjustment is necessary, loosen the trim tab bolt and make small adjustments
at a time. If the boat turns more easily to the left, move the trailing edge of the
trim tab to the left. If the boat turns more easily to the right, move the trailing
edge of the trim tab to the right. Tighten the bolt and test.
