tilt/trim question

[Roachb]

How do I work the trim/tilt on this motor I dont see any pins I Was told it is a 75 merc 115hp I bought it for 100 bucks. I just replaced all the old wiring,put in new plugs, new battery and fuel tank...so far about 250 bucks in....I cant figure it out this is my first boat and engine and have no clue if this model even has power tilt/trim? I ll put some pics on so someone may be able to help me thanks

ALSO....I know what control is the throttle but what is the one on the right for?

No the motor does not have power trim...the lever on the right is the high idle lever, it should be put straight up when starting the motor then reduced as the engine warms...

Re: tilt/trim question

There's a slide pin that goes through (side to side) the transom mount bracket...there's a clamp bracket that engages that pin...i believe it's call the reverse lock mechanism..

Shift your motor into FWD. That should dis-engage your locking arm.
