Was wondering if someone could tell me what the troll lever is supposed to do on the motor. Mine is not working, and was going to fix, but want to see if it's worth fixing.<br /><br />Thanks

That lowers a bracket that allows the motor to run at partial tilt. More accurately, it's for shallow water. Not sure what genius thought to label it "Troll". Maybe an Ogre?
