Trim Tabs
• Before using the trim tabs read the trim tab operation manual.
• The trim tabs can be used to help keep your boat level at cruising speeds.
• The trim tabs are controlled by two rocker switches at the helm.
• Once cruising speed is reached, the port or starboard trim switch may be used (one at a time) to level the boat.
• Perform trim tab adjustment with several short touches to the switch rather than one long one.
• After each short touch allow several seconds for the hull to react.
• Periodically (at least once a year) check the fluid level in the trim tab hydraulic fluid reservoir and refill
as necessary.
LOSS OF CONTROL HAZARD!
Improper use of trim tabs will cause loss of control!
• Do not allow anyone unfamiliar with trim tabs to use them.
• Do not use trim tabs in a following sea as they will cause broaching or other unsafe
handling characteristics.
• Do not use trim tabs to compensate for excessive unequal weight distribution.
