Trim Tabs (If Equipped)
•
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 needed.
For the location of the fluid reservoir see the Component Locations section of Chapter 2 in this Supplement.
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.
