Make a test run in the boat to determine if the
trim angle needs to be adjusted. Adjust the trim
angle using the Power Trim and Tilt system. If
necessary, you can change the limit of down-
ward travel that can be achieved using the
Power Trim and Tilt by moving the tilt pin to
another position.
While operating your boat with the motor
adjusted to the proper trim angle, observe the
position of the needle on the TRIM GAUGE pro-
vided as optional part. When making future trim
angle adjustment, use the TRIM GAUGE as a
guide.
(Optional part)
TRIM TAB ADJUSTMENT
This adjustment is used to compensate for the
possible tendency of your boat to veer slightly
to port or starboard. This tendency could be
due to such things as propeller torque, motor
mounting position, etc.
To adjust the trim tab:
1. Loosen the bolt
A
that holds the trim tab in
place.
2. If the boat tends to veer to port, move the
rear end of the trim tab toward the port side.
If the boat tends to veer to starboard, move
the starboard side.
3. Tighten the bolt that holds the trim tab in
place.
After adjusting the trim tab, check to see if the
boat still tends to veer to one side. If necessary,
readjust the trim tab.
