Trim “In” Angle Adjustment
WARNING
Boat operation with outboard trimmed to the full “In” trim angle [not using the
trim angle adjustment bolt] at planing speed may result in undesirable and/or un-
safe steering conditions. A water test for handling/steering conditions is re-
quired after any trim angle adjustments.
IMPORTANT: Some boat/motor combinations not using the trim angle adjustment
pin and trimmed to the full “In” trim angle position may not exhibit any undesirable
and/or unsafe handling and/or steering characteristics at planing speed. If so, not
using the trim angle adjustment bolt may be advantageous to acceleration and
planing. A water test is required to determine if these characteristics apply to a par-
ticular boat/motor combination.
