Three‑Ram Trim System
GENERAL INFORMATION
The power trim system was filled prior to shipment and is ready for use.
The outboard can be raised or lowered manually by loosening the manual
release valve four turns.
The trim out angle of this outboard is not adjustable. The trim system has an
internal valve, which will automatically stop the outward trim travel at 20° when
engine RPM is approximately 2000 RPM or higher; outboard also has to be in
water and in gear.
The outboard can be operated beyond the 20° trim limit for operating outboard
in shallow water if engine RPM is kept below approximately 2000 RPM.
POWER TRIM OPERATION (THREE-RAM SYSTEM)
Trimming the outboard beyond a neutral steering condition may result in a
pull on the steering wheel or tiller handle and loss of boat control. Maintain
control of the boat if trimming beyond a neutral steering condition.
