EWM01510 WARNING ● ● Do not use the reverse function to slow down or stop the boat as it could cause you to lose control, be ejected, or impact the steering wheel or other parts of the boat. This could increase the risk of serious injury. It could also damage the shift mechanism. Do not shift into reverse while traveling at planing speeds. Loss of control, boat swamping, or damage to the boat could occur.
U63V1EE0.book Page 36 Tuesday, March 3, 2009 10:50 AM Operation the possibility of an accident. If the boat begins to feel unstable or is hard to steer, slow down and/or readjust the trim angle. The trim angle of the outboard motor helps determine the position of the bow of the boat in the water. Correct trim angle will help improve performance and fuel economy while reducing strain on the engine. Correct trim angle depends upon the combination of boat, engine, and propeller.
U63V1EE0.book Page 37 Tuesday, March 3, 2009 10:50 AM Operation cy to steer to one side or the other. Compensate for this as you steer. The trim tab can also be adjusted to help offset this effect. When the bow of the boat is down, it is easier to accelerate from a standing start onto plane. the bow is greatly increased, heightening the danger of “bow steering” and making operation difficult and dangerous. TIP: Bow Up Too much trim-out puts the bow of the boat too high in the water.
U63V1EE0.book Page 38 Tuesday, March 3, 2009 10:50 AM Operation ECM00241 NOTICE ● ● Before tilting the outboard motor, stop the engine by following the procedure on page 35.
