The Packate include TRIM TABS, MOTOR, PUMP, BRACKETS, CYLINDERS, HOSE, CONTROL, WIRE HARNESS, ROCKER SWITCH,AND OIL.

12 gauge 304 stainless steel trim tabs are available in standard and custom lengths. They are guaranteed against electrolysis, remaining strong and secure. Insta-Trim's hinges prevent most spray and can be used for transom or bottom mounting.

Insta-Trim Boat Leveler tabs are two stainless steel planes installed on the
transom. As the hydraulic cylinders deflect the trim tabs, water flow is redirected.
This waterflow creates upward pressure under the trim tabs, raising the stern.
As the stern rises the bow lowers (figure 1). Because proper trim tab surface
area is essential, larger and/ or slower boats require larger trim tabs than smaller
faster boats.

Insta-Trim Boat Leveler Tabs employ the force of hydraulics for smooth
trimming action. When the trim tab rocker switch is pressed, electrical current is
sent to the hydraulic motor pump unit. This signal activates the electic motor,
creating fluid pressure. Valves on motor pump unit open, channeling the
required amount of fluid to the actuators. When the trim tab rocker switch is
released, the valve close, capturing the fluid in the actuators hydraulic cylinders.
Thus trim tabs hold their position.

Insta-Trim Boat Leveler Tabs operate in reverse of what you might think. The
port trim tab lifts the port stern which lowers the starboard bow. With
properly installed trim tabs, you will not be as aware of this reverse function as the
control functionis based on the direction you wish to move the bow.

The proper use of Insta-Trim Boat Leveler Tabs becomes very easy after a
short time. Here are some general guidelines to get you started:

Getting and staying trimmed
Most boats "break over" (get on a plane) at a
particular speed. This speed is determined by weight distribution, water
conditions, etc. Insta-Trim Boat Leveler Tabs enable your boat to plane at
speeds lower than natural planing speed. As the throttle is pushed, the stern
squats and the bow rises (figure 3). In short bursts, the trim tab rocker switches
are pushed in the "BOW DOWN" position, moving both trim tabs. The boat
reacts as the stern rises and the bow "breaks over", resulting in, among other
things, increased visibility and speed (figure 4). If over trimming occurs as the
boat gains speed, the rim tabs can be retracted by pressing "BOW UP".
(When overtrimmed, the boat plows, reducing maneuverability).

 

Features:

Wiring
 

• Color-coded wiring in 25' to 40' lengths with quick connects fittings, meets federal standards for heat, pull and insulation, making installation easy.

Solenoids
 

• They are custom designed for Insta-Trim Boat Leveler Co., epoxy sealed and humidity resistant, thereby preventing shorting out. The solenoids lock the tabs in any position, eliminating driftback. Barb type hose fittings provide tight, secure connections.

Motor
 

• A powerhouse with coated wirings and a thermal overload that resists temperature and amperage build-up. 1 3/4" stack windings and top mounting eliminated oil leakage. The motor is mounted with stainless steel nuts and bolts, and is easily disassembled.

Brackets
 

• Swivel type brackets allow cylinders to be mounted an adjusted to any angle. Knockout pins act as shear pins it tab strikes an object.

Pump
 

• Designed and engineered exclusively by Instatrim. The built-in bypass is factory set at 400 P.S.I. tolerance held to .00025. Amperage doesn't exceed 16 because the unit circulates oil, rather than stalling out or trying to pump additional pressure.

Motor Cover
 

• 4 1/2" D x 6" W x 11"H, high impact ABS plastic cover with a built-in oil reservoir mounts easily with two screws. The filler is located in front. Our cover protects the motor from occasional wash down.

Cylinders
 

• Impact resistant, fiberglass reinforced nylon cylinders eliminates expansion and resists ultra-violet rays. Two expanding type seals, plus O-ring, eliminates high and low pressure leaks. Barbed cylinder fitting and an inserted tubular rod prevents hose blow-off and breakage.
  A stainless steel spring retracts the cylinder when the boat is not in motion.

Trim Tabs
 

• 12 gauge 304 stainless steel trim tabs are available in standard and custom lengths. They are guaranteed against electrolysis, remaining strong and secure. Insta-Trim's hinges prevent most spray and can be used for transom or bottom mounting.

Hose
 

• Designed and manufactured exclusively for Insta-Trim with nylon-reinforced webbing and protective PVC coating. Rated at 2000 lb. burst pressure, 15' of hose is supplied for your system. Entering the transom 6" above the water line, the hoses are held securely with hose trim.
  Stainless steel clamps hold the hose to barb fitting at the solenoid.

Rocker Type Controls
 

• Mounted on the dash they are easy to operate. 2TP Micro switch with silver contact points adjust the tabs for maximum control and performance.

One pint of Insta-Trim biodegradable transmission oil, funnel and mounting hardware is supplied.
