Trim tab limit switch...
 
How do I adjust this? My drives come up and touch my swim platform when trimmed up. I know where the switches are on the gimble housing, but how do I adjust them?

They make spacers to go into the cylinders,
to prevent them from coming full up.

item # 27 is it.

They do make a spacer for some drives that will hit the swim platform . I am not sure if your saying you have a bad switch or your drive goes too high. If its the latter you can ad a spacer (not zinks) but a spacer

Joe, Jay is right, that is the spacer, it just looks like the zinc. It goes inside the cylinder on top of the piston. It's slotted so all you have to do is remove the end cap and slip it in. YOu could also use more than 1 if needed. There are 2 in each kit.

Thanks guys. I figured I could somehow adjust the switch to keep them from going up to far. I have the little rotary switches on each side of the gimble housing. I just don't know how to play/adjust them.
