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.

WARNING
Excessive trim up or down may lead to
unstable boat operation, potentially caus-
ing the steering difficulty that leads to acci-
dent during cruising.
Do not cruise at high speed if improper
trim position is suspected. Stop the boat
and readjust trim angle before continu-
ing cruise.
For outboard motor model with PTT
switch on the bottom cowl, do not oper-
ate the switch during cruising, or control
of boat may be lost.
The trim angle of the outboard motor can
be adjusted to suit the transom angle of
the hull, and load conditions. Choose an
appropriate trim angle that will allow the
anti-ventilation plate to run parallel to the
water surface during operation.
