Installation Guide

1. Safety First: Ensure the engine is off and the boat is secured. Place a drip pan under the work area to catch any hydraulic fluid spills.
2. Access the Hose: Locate the old power trim hose connecting the trim pump to the cylinder. Clean the fittings to prevent contamination.
3. Relieve Pressure: Carefully loosen a fitting to slowly release stored hydraulic pressure.
4. Remove Old Hose: Once pressure is relieved, use appropriate wrenches to fully disconnect both ends of the hose.
5. Install New Hose: Compare the new hose with the old one to confirm an exact match. Hand-tighten the fittings on the new hose first.
6. Tighten Fittings: Securely tighten the fittings with a wrench. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the seals.
7. Bleed the System: Operate the trim system up and down several times to bleed air. Check and top off the hydraulic fluid reservoir as needed.
8. Inspect for Leaks: With the system pressurized, carefully inspect both new connections for any signs of leakage.
