   Using Your  Evinrude E-TEC Outboard
Trim Angle Adjustment
WARNING
Boat  stability and steering  torque  can vary  due to changing water   condi-
tions. If any adverse conditions occur, reduce throttle and/or adjust tilt angle
to maintain control. If you experience boat instability and/or high steering
torque, see your Dealer to correct these conditions.
If the bow of the boat plows the water at high speeds, the boat may bow
steer  or  spin  suddenly,  possibly  ejecting  or  otherwise  seriously  injuring
occupants.
Trim angle adjustment is accomplished by changing the location of the tilt pin.
Run the boat in the water to determine the best trim angle.
IMPORTANT: Weight  distribution can affect  the performance of  the boat. Distribute  weight
evenly in the boat before adjusting trim angle.
The boat should accelerate quickly, plane easily,  and run parallel to the surface of the water
at high speeds.
If tilt pin is positioned too LOW the front of boat will be DOWN and push water.
If tilt pin is positioned too HIGH the front of boat will be UP and bounce.
To adjust the trim angle:
Place the outboard in full TILT position. Refer to Tilt Support Bracket on page 39.
Turn the angle adjusting rod handle up. Push in against spring so retainer will release, then
slide rod assembly all the way out.
Insert tilt pin in desire position. Make sure the tilt pin passes through both stern brackets.
Push in against  retainer to lock in  place. Make sure the  tilt pin assembly is  locked on the
stern bracket.
