TRIM ANGLE
Your boat has the ability to angle in or out its drive unit in relationship
to the transom.
The purpose of the power trim/tilt is to enable the operator to change
the angle of the drive while at the helm or tilting the drive unit out of
the water when moored. Changing the angle of the drive or “trimming”
while underway provides the following benets:
l. Improves acceleration onto a plane.
2. Maintains boat on plane at reduced throttle settings.
3. Increases fuel economy.
4. Provides smoother ride in choppy water.
5. Increases top speed.
In short, it is a way of ne-tuning the ride of your boat and will enable
you to get the most efcient and comfortable ride possible, whatever
the conditions.
If your boat is also equipped with trim tabs, they can be used in
combination with the drive unit power trim to balance unequal side-
to-side load distribution.
