WARNING
!
Avoid possible serious injury or death. Do not trim outboard
beyond its normal trim range above 2000 RPM. In order to sig-
nificantly raise the strength of the Hi-Performance transom
assembly, the electric trim limit and trim indicator sending
unit mounting positions have been eliminated. Having no trim
limit switch permits the operator to trim the outboard to any
position at any throttle setting.
NOTE: There is no tilt feature on engines with a 15 in. (38.1cm) cen-
ter section. These outboards can only be trimmed.
Your outboard has a trim/tilt control called “Power Trim.” This enables
the operator to easily adjust the position of the outboard by pressing
the trim switch (a). Moving the outboard in closer to the boat transom
is called trimming “in” or “down.” Moving the outboard further away
from the boat transom is called trimming “out” or “up.” The term “trim”
generally refers to the adjustment of the outboard within the first 20
°
range of travel (b). This is the range used while operating your boat
on plane. The term “tilt” is generally used when referring to adjusting
the outboard further up out of the water (c). With the engine turned
off the outboard can be tilted out of the water. At low idle speed, the
outboard can also be tilted up past the trim range to permit, for exam-
ple, shallow water operation.
