Hi - I have a 1992 Alpha 1 that when I trim down it works no problem, trim up will only work until it gets part way and then stops - wont pull the leg right up- I have no idea where to start looking. Summary - slow trim works fine up and down but fast trim to get right up doesnt work at all. HELP

Icressy,Is this boat new to you? I may be wrong,but I believe this is how it is supposed to work. It is called trailer function.It stops you from triming your sterndrive up too high when your adjusting it in the water.As long as you can move it when you need to I would'nt worry about it.<br /><br /> Jim... gone fishing!

It Appears that you're calling Fast Trim, what is Really the Tilt mode....<br />You Should have 3 buttons......<br />Down.....<br />Trim....(which is Supposed to do what you state)<br />and Tilt..... Which means to lift the drive into the Trailer position......<br /><br />There is No Fast or Slow......<br />Only Trim, or Tilt.......<br /><br />BTW, <br />Don't run the engine/drive in Tilt.....<br />It'll Tear-Up the U-joints........
