Throttle Cable

Throttle Cable Inspection
Check throttle lever free-play, adjust if
necessary.
If correct adjustment is unattainable,
see an authorized Can-Am dealer.
Inspect throttle cable for excessive
wear, kinking or fraying. Ensure cable
moves freely.
Replace throttle cable if any signs of
wear, fraying or other damage are
found.
Lubricate cable using CABLE LUBRI-
CANT (P/N 293 600 041) to reduce
premature wear and to ensure proper
movement of the cable.
WARNING
Always use a silicone-based lubri-
cant. Using another lubricant (like
a water-based lubricant) could
cause the throttle lever/cable to
become sticky and stiff.
