Trim Tab
TIGHTENING

TRIM * TAB
The trim tab compensates for
"torque steer," which is a reaction of
the outboard motor to propeller
rotation.
If uncompensated, torque steer would
make the outboard motor tend to turn
to one side.
When the trim tab is correctly
adjusted
(p. 57 ), steering effort is
equal in either direction.
INSTRUMENTS
Trim Meter
(optional equipment)
TRIM METER
The trim meter has a range of 0" to
20" and indicates the trim angle of
the outboard motor.
Refer to the trim meter when using
the power tridtilt switch to achieve
the best performance from the boat.
