X OPERATION
POWER TRIM AND TILT
WARNING
Any malfunction of the power trim and tilt unit could result in loss of shock
absorber protection if an underwater obstruction is hit. Malfunction can also
result in loss of reverse thrust capability.
Correct fluid level must be maintained to ensure operation of the impact pro-
tection on this unit.
When operating in rough water or crossing a wake, excessive bow-up trim
may result in the boat’s bow suddenly rising skyward, possibly ejecting or
otherwise seriously injuring occupants.
Some boat/outboard/propeller combinations may encounter boat instability
and/or high steering torque when operated at high speed at or near the out-
board’s trim range limits (full bow-up or bow-down). Boat stability and steer-
ing torque can also vary due to changing water conditions. If any adverse
conditions occur, reduce throttle and/or adjust trim angle to maintain con-
trol. If you experience boat instability and/or high steering torque, see your
Dealer to correct these conditions.
Some boats plow, or are difficult to plane, when operated in the trim’s lowest position. If your
boat handles unsuitably when trimmed fully bow-down, adjust transom angle or limit the travel
of the power trim.
WARNING
If the bow of the boat plows the water at high speeds, the boat may bow
steer or spin suddenly, possibly ejecting or otherwise seriously injuring
occupants.
