Bennett Marine Auto Tab Retractor User Manual

Auto tAb RetRActoR

Bennett’s Auto Tab Retractor (ATR) makes trim tab operation easier than ever. By simply turning the
boat’s ignition key to the “o” position, the trim tabs automatically retract full-up to their “zero” position,
enhancing protection and convenience. Your new Auto Tab Retractor:

Reduces the risk of trim tab damage from fork lifts, trailers and dry storage racks.•

Relieves hydraulic pressure when the trim tabs are not in use.*•

Avoids unnecessary marine growth on actuating cylinder.*•

Ensures your trim tabs are fully retracted every time you start up, especially •

if your boat is not equipped with Bennett Trim Tab Indicators.

*Bennett actuating cylinders can remain extended when not in use and are unaected by marine growth on the actuating
piston or cylinder, or prolonged pressure in the system.
