Trim Wear Pad Replacement

The Verado engine utilizes thrust guide plates on either side of the driveshaft
housing to improve stability of the engine. As the engine is trimmed up or down,
the thrust guide plates will rub against the trim wear pads that are mounted on
either side of the trim manifold. Replace the trim wear pads if the heads of the
mounting screws become flush with the wear pad surface.
Refer to the Inspection and Maintenance Schedule for the proper
maintenance interval.
