Tilt Up
In the up mode, as the trim rod (b) extends from the cylinder, the memory piston (e) clears
or uncovers the pressure relief passage. Oil from the up cavity will enter this passage and
open the tilt pressure relief valve (k). This valve lowers the amount of pressure available to
lift the outboard motor. With the engine in forward gear, and at high engine rpm, the oil pres-
sure available will not be able to overcome the propeller thrust, limiting the trim range to be-
low the pressure relief orifice. When the engine rpm decreases or if engine is not in forward
gear, the oil pressure is available to extend the trim rod (b) up into the tilt range.
