Check the level of hydraulic fluid in the reservoir at the
helm regularly and replenish if necessary. The fill cap
behind the wheel has a gauge indicating the fluid level.
Check the steering manual for the right fluid to be used. All
other maintenance should be performed by your dealer.
Power Trim
A power trim system is available on some models. The
power trim system controls the angle of the drive unit. The
power trim switch also allows the operator to adjust the
motor at cruising speed to achieve an ideal planning angle.
Moving the drive unit in closer to the transom is called
trimming “in” or “down.” Moving the drive unit farther away
from the transom is called trimming “out” or “up.” Refer to
the engine and control manuals for specific information
about trimming.
To trim the bow of the boat up, press the trim switch in the
direction marked UP. Moving the bow up increases top
speed, but can cause the boat to porpoise if trimmed up
too far. Excessive trim up can cause propeller cavitation
(propeller pushes air, not water) and damage the engine.
To trim the bow of the boat down, press the trim switch in
the direction marked DOWN. Running with the bow down
will help the boat accelerate and get on plane faster,
especially with a heavy load, but it will reduce boat speed
in most cases. Excessive trim down can make the boat
difficult to steer.
