Checking for Obstructions. Before starting the installation — and drilling any holes
— verify that there are no mounting restrictions inside or outside the transom. Choose a
location about 3-4” from the chine (side of the hull). Hold the tab up to the very bottom of
the transom (flush with hull bottom), and hold the actuator on the trim tab, using the center
set of holes for your starting point. Then set the actuator upper hinge against the transom.
Verify this for both sides so that the actuators will not center on any obstruction. If they do,
reposition tabs slightly inboard or outboard.
Now you are ready to continue your installation, with Steps 2-12 starting on the next page.
