Power Trim
Your Volvo Penta drive is equipped with a hydraulic
trim system, Power Trim, that allows you to adjust the
angle of the drive with respect to the transom from the
helm station. The angle of the drive effects the boat's
passage through the water and other characteristics,
e.g. improved acceleration to planing and planing with
a lower throttle opening. Trimming can also be used to
give a more gentle passage in short seas.
Running on one engine in twin installations
If only one engine is working, the drive for the engine
that is not running must be raised.
To raise the engine:
1 Turn the key for the drive that will not start to the
run position so that system power is connected and
the engine is stopped.
2 Using the trim button, raise the drive as high as it
will go.
3 Turn the key to the stop position.
IMPORTANT!
Failure to raise a faulty drive in a twin installation with
one engine running can result in the drives' colliding
with each other and suffering damage.
Trim Ranges
To be able to use the information on the trim instru-
ment, it is important to be aware of the three trim
ranges and the way they are used.
Trim range
The trim range are used to provide the best comfort
when driving – from starting to top speed.
Beach range
The beach range is used for driving at low speed in
shallow water or where the depth is unknown.
The highest permitted engine speed when in the beach
range is 1500 rpm.
IMPORTANT!
Make sure the drive's coolant inlet is never trimmed out
of the water when operating in the beach range.
Lift range
The lift range is never used when sailing. It lifts the
drive to maximum height and is used for e.g. trans-
porting the boat on a trailer. Power Trim has an auto-
matic stop that turns off the power when the end posi-
tion is reached. The catch is released automatically
when the stern drive is trimmed down.
WARNING!
The engine must not be run with the drive in the “lift”
range.
