h. While holding the Wrap Drum just above the
Cable Gear, and maintaining tension on the
Steering Cables, carefully rotate the Wrap Drum
right or left until the top of the Foot Pedal is
parallel with the deck of the boat. The proper
position of the Wrap Drum will locate the anchors
for each of the Steering Cables equidistant from
the mid-line of the Cable Anchor where it is
secured to the Steering Module.
CAUTION
Do not make this adjustment by applying pressure to the
Foot Pedal. Rotate the Wrap Drum manually and use
the Foot Pedal position as a guide to indicate the proper
position of the Wrap Drum.
i. Once the Foot Pedal is at the desired position,
align the Wrap Drum with the nearest tooth on
the splined shaft of the Cable Gear. Press the
Wrap Drum securely down so that it is seated
on top of the Cable Gear. At this point, the head
of the motor should be parallel with the keel of
the boat and the top of the foot pedal should be
parallel with the deck of the boat.
NOTE: The top of the Wrap Drum has rounded
and smooth edges. The bottom of the Wrap Drum
is flat and the teeth that engage the Cable Gear
are visible in the center.

j. Using a #3 Phillips screwdriver, tighten the Cable
Tension Screw located at the base of the Toe
End of the Foot Pedal to 10 - 12 in-lbs until the
Steering Cables are under tension or re-tighten
the same number of turns as was used in step 4f.
CAUTION
Do not over tighten the Cable Tension Screw, as excessive
tension will cause damage to the unit.
