Using this ARCO tilt trim motor is straightforward. First, make sure you clean all the connections before installation. This helps the motor work at its best by preventing resistance. Fit the motor onto your BRP - OMC outboard engine with the right horsepower (check the year - model compatibility). Once installed, it should work right away as it's been dynamically tested. When it comes to maintenance, keep an eye on the motor shafts. Since they're hardened at the bearing surfaces, they're durable, but a visual check from time to time won't hurt. Also, the epoxy powder coating protects the motor well, but avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals. If you're using it for leisure, you have a 12 - month warranty. For commercial or racing, it's 90 days. Don't forget to register your product within 30 days of purchase to get an extra year of warranty. If you face any issues, don't return it to the place you bought it from. Instead, reach out to the manufacturer directly.
