TRIM TAB ADJUSTMENT
This adjustment is used to compensate for the
possible tendency of your boat to veer slightly
to port or starboard. This tendency could be
due to such things as propeller torque, motor
mounting position, etc.
To adjust the trim tab:
1. Loosen the bolt A that holds the trim tab in
place.
2. If the boat tends to veer to port, move the
rear end of the trim tab toward the port side.
If the boat tends to veer to starboard, move
the starboard side.

3. Tighten the bolt that holds the trim tab in
place.
After adjusting the trim tab, check to see if the
boat still tends to veer to one side. If necessary,
readjust the trim tab.
STEERING TENSION ADJUSTMENT
The steering on your outboard motor should be
smooth and not tight. Adjust the steering ten-
sion so that there is only a slight resistance to
steering movement.
