LIMITING TRIM IN
In rare circumstances, the owner may decide to limit the trim in to
avoid unsafe handling or steering conditions at planing speeds.
!
WARNING
Avoid possible serious injury or death. Adjust outboard to an
intermediate trim position as soon as boat is on plane to avoid
possible ejection due to boat spin out. Do not attempt to turn boat
when on plane if outboard is trimmed extremely in or down and
there is a pull on the steering wheel.
!
WARNING
Avoid possible injury or death. Always perform a water test to
examine boat handling and steering after making any trim in
limiting adjustments. Operating a boat with a full trim angle
without the aid of a trim in limiting device may result in
undesirable or unsafe steering conditions.
IMPORTANT: Some boat/engine combinations not using a trim
angle adjustment device, or trimmed to the full trim in position, may
not exhibit any undesireable or unsafe handling or steering
conditions. In these cases, a trim limiting device may not be
adventageous to accelleration or planing. Always perform a water
test to determine if these characteristics apply to a particular boat/
engine combination.
To limit trim in on models with a three-ram trim system, purchase
a stainless steel tilt pin from your dealer and insert it in whichever
adjustment hole is desired.
