Check your engine, but generally the is a small lever that you flop into place, and allows the engine to rest on, that will take the pressure of off the hydrolic trim ram.....

My father had a Tower of Power for 30 years, on a boat that we trailered all over the place.... we never needed one of those fancy Transom savers to take the relieve some of the wait...

Disclaimer...... Things may have changed.... Engines have gotten heavier etc.....
