Here is an excerpt from the owner's manual for my 2004 260da on trim tabs:
"To trim the bow of your boat down, push the top halves of both rockers down in short bursts. If you hold the rockers down, you will over trim the boat and the bow will dig in. ... To be sure the tabs are full up in the zero position, push the bottom halves of the rockers for several seconds"
Isn't this reversed? Don't you press the BOTTOMS of the rockers down to extend the tabs, trimming your boat down and digging the bow into the water? Then to return them to the full up position, don't you press the TOPS of the rockers??
