FEATURES AND CONTROLS

• In rare circumstances, the owner may decide to limit the
trim in. This can be accomplished by purchasing a
stainless steel tilt pin from your dealer and inserting it in
whatever adjustment hole in the transom brackets is
desired. The nonstainless steel shipping bolt should not
be used in this application other than on a temporary
basis.
2. Trimming out or up can:
• Lift the bow higher out of the water
• Generally increase top speed
• Increase clearance over submerged objects or a shallow
bottom
• Increase steering torque or pull to the left at a normal
installation height (with the normal right‑hand rotation
propeller)
• In excess, can cause boat porpoising (bouncing) or
propeller ventilation
• Cause engine overheating if any cooling water intake
holes are above the waterline
TRIM WITHOUT KEY
Trim without key is a method of allowing trim operation after the
ignition key switch is turned off. The command module and PCM
remain powered and are able to process trim requests for up to
15 minutes after the key switch is turned off. The command
module does not process any requests other than trim during this
period. Once the 15 minute period expires, the command module
sends a command through the CAN lines to shut down the PCM.
On multi‑engine applications, the timeout is managed separately
for each engine.
The trim without key period may be ended at any time by moving
the control handle to Wide‑Open Throttle Reverse (WOTR) with
the key off. To end the 15 minute period for the center engine in
a shadow mode application, ensure all ignition key switches are
in the "OFF" position and both remote control handles are in the
Wide‑Open Throttle Reverse (WOTR) position.
