adjustment. Repeat adjustment, if necessary.
After adjustment is correct, tilt the outboard up,
tighten the two sending unit screws, and remove
the thrust rod.
When the outboard is returned to the cus-
tomer, the trim limiter rod must be
installed and in the same location as it
was when the motor was brought in for
service. Leaving the trim limiter rod out, or
changing the adjustment, could allow the
motor to unexpectedly trim in too far and
cause loss of control.
