We just bought a brand new 40 hp Mercury 4 stroke outboard jet and love it so far. We have ran across what I assume are the common adjustments, height and pitch of jet tweeking the control cable and stuff like that. I have one problem left and at this point not sure if I should worry about it. The motor came with power trim and a switch for that on the side of the lower chrod, well it doesn't work, not sure if there was a step I missed while unpacking it or if it just bad. Question is "Is trim even needed on a jet outboard?" Thanks

Power Trim is just as Useful on a Jet Drive as it is on a Propeller Drive.
