Turn the rear of the trim tab in the direction that the boat is turning. Use small increments until you have correction.

The trim tab works by deflecting water that is moving from the propeller.

But every thing on EZglides site says to put the tab to the right? Is this why Im turning left? This is how its set.

I use OMC/BRP Factory service manuals - works better. Click the thumbnail please.

You usually find these instructions at the end of the gearcase sections.

Ok I will try that. If it still pulled hard left when centerd, should I put it all the way over to the left?

Adjust in small increments until it works correctly.

Read the second paragraph in that picture. Might save you some frustration when it doesn't work no matter where you put it.
