WARNING
An improperly adjusted trim tab could
cause difficult steering. Always test run
after the trim tab has been installed or re-
placed to be sure steering is correct. Be
sure you have tightened the bolt after ad-
justing the trim tab.
The trim tab should be adjusted so that the
steering control can be turned to either the
right or left by applying the same amount of
force.
If the boat tends to veer to the left (port side),
turn the trim tab rear end to the port side "A"
in the figure.
If the boat tends to veer to the right (star-
board side), turn the trim tab end to the star-
board side "B" in the figure.
