Mounting An Outboard Motor:
The method of securing an outboard motor to the vessel.
Use of hand-tightened screw thread clamps. These clamp the transom of the vessel between the engine mounting bracket and the screw thread plates. Their tightness should be checked each time the engine is used. A safety rope or chain should also be used to secure the motor to the vessel and prevent the motor from dropping from the boat if the clamps get loose during vessel operation. On larger outboard motors, the mounting bracket is usually bolted through the transom plate. This is a more secure method, but regular checks must be made for looseness.

 

 

Trim Angle:
By changing the outboard motor’s drive angle, the vessel’s bow can be made to rise or fall. The performance and stability of a vessel depends a great deal on correctly trimming the outboard. The correct trim angle depends on the vessel ’ s handling characteristics, the size of the outboard, the sea and loading conditions. Care must therefore be taken to ensure the outboard is trimmed correctly under different sea and loading conditions. On smaller outboards, the trim angle is adjusted manually by moving an adjusting rod to different holes in the mounting bracket. The bigger outboards usually have a Trim Switch fitted on the remote control level.
