EXHAUST GAS OVER TEMPERATURE
When the Engine Guardian system detects the exhaust gas temperature is high
(fault code 2124‑20), the warning horn will beep and the engine RPM will be
limited. SmartCraft gauges that have the ability display text will alert the
operator with a short text, long text, and the action that the operator should
follow. This Guardian warning and engine power reduction can possibly be
corrected by inspecting the gearcase water inlet for blockage and the cooling
system water strainer for blockage. Refer to

Power Trim and Tilt
The outboard has a trim/tilt control called power trim. This enables the operator
to easily adjust the position of the outboard by pressing the trim switch. Moving
the outboard in closer to the boat transom is called trimming in or down. Moving
the outboard further away from the boat transom is called trimming out or up.
The term trim generally refers to the adjustment of the outboard within the first
20° range of travel. This is the range used while operating the boat on plane.
The term tilt is generally used when referring to adjusting the outboard further
up out of the water. The outboard can be tilted up past the trim range for
shallow water operation or loading the boat onto a trailer. With the engine
turned off and ignition switch turned
ON
, the outboard can be tilted out of the
water.
•
Below 2000 RPM the engine can be trimmed or tilted to any range.
Caution is advised when operating the engine past the trim range. Ensure
the water pickups are submerged.
•
While in the trim range and the engine is above 2000 RPM, you can only
trim to the maximum trim range.
