Engine Inclination
To ensure the engine receives lubrication and cooling
in a satisfactory manner, it is important that maximum
engine inclination is not exceeded. Engine inclination
must therefore be checked.
Be
careful to avoid the front of the engine's being lower
than the flywheel, i.e. an exaggerated negative incli-
nation that may impair engine lubrication and cooling
system venting.
Each engine type has a maximum permissible engine
inclination while the boat is under way. This inclination
includes both the installation angle and the increase in
trim angle the boat attains when moving at speed
through the water.
A Engine inclination with the boat at rest.
B Boat trim angle under way.
C Total engine inclination under way, maximum per-
missible inclination (A+B).
A boat's weight distribution is affected by the choice of
driveshaft length.
See technical data for limit values.
