Do not put hand or finger in between
outboard motor body and clamp bracket
when adjusting trim angle to prevent
injury in case the outboard motor body
falls.
Unsuitable trim position can cause loss
of control of boat. When testing a trim
position, run boat slow initially to see if it
can be controlled safely.

trim angle is adjusted correctly. Incorrect
adjustment will cause the boat to sway,
deteriorate engine performance and may
cause unsafe steering conditions.

The Power Trim & Tilt can be set to any trim
angle, however, avoid cruising with the out-
board motor tilted in the tilt range. Operat-
ing the boat in this manner, the outboard
motor may ingest air into the water cooling
system, resulting in engine overheating.
