NOTE:
The actuator should move the shift cam to neu-

side is in neutral and then install the shift
cable on the shift cam at actuator side.
7) Move the remote control lever from neutral
to estimated forward and reverse positions
to check that the outboard shifts securely.

adjusting pin and hole (L), the cable may
be defective or the cable end play is exces-
sive. Replace the cable if it is defective.

turn the main switch to OFF. Install water
prevention cap and then actuator cover.
