Excessive trim up or down may lead to unsta-
ble boat operation, potentially causing the
steering difficulty that leads to accident
during cruising.
z Do not cruise at high speed if improper
trim position is suspected. Stop the boat
and readjust trim angle before continuing
cruise.
z For outboard motor model with PTT
switch on the bottom cowl, do not oper-
ate the switch during cruising, or control
of boat may be lost.
The trim angle of the outboard motor can
be adjusted to suit the transom angle of
the hull, and load conditions. Choose an
appropriate trim angle that will allow the
anti-ventilation plate to run parallel to
the water surface during operation.
