ADJUSTING TRIM ANGLE

EMU00951

Manual tilt model

There are 4 or 5 holes provided in the clamp bracket to adjust the outboard motor trim angle.

1)Stop the engine.

2)Remove the trim angle adjusting rod 1 from the clamp bracket while tilting the motor up slightly.

3)Reposition the rod in the desired hole. To raise the bow (“trim-out”), move the rod away from the transom. To lower the bow (“trim-in”), move the rod toward the transom. Make test runs with the trim set to different angles to find the position that works best for your boat and operating conditions.

WARNING

●Stop the engine before adjusting the trim angle.

●Use care to avoid being pinched when removing or installing the rod.

●Use caution when trying a trim posi- tion for the first time. Increase speed gradually and watch for any signs of instability or control problems. Improper trim angle can cause loss of control.

NOTE:

The outboard motor trim angle can be changed approximately 4 degrees by shifting the trim adjusting-rod one hole.
