electrical continuity only when
the control is in neutral. When
the control is in gear, there must
not be any electrical continuity.

Mounting Control

CAUTION
!
Do not use cable hangers or
clamps which may crush or
stress the cables in anyway. Do-
ing so may impair the function
of the cables.
Do not restrict movement of
the throttle cable within 2 feet
of the control (see Figure 10).
To do so may damage or impair
proper operation of throttle
cable.

With the opening in the swivel bracket nearest to the cable entry end of the
control, insert the throttle cable through the opening in the swivel bracket and
secure the cable anchor groove in the swivel bracket slot.
Screw the pivot on to cable rod end and allow cable rod threads to protrude
through the pivot 3/16 inch minimum.
Lubricate the pinion with lithium marine grease, then insert into the hole in the
throttle arm. Fasten with a cotter pin. Tighten cable nut against pivot.
Connect the neutral start switch between the ignition switch and the starter
solenoid as shown in Figure 9.
Use the terminals and insulators provided with the control to insure against an
electrical short circuit.
Run the cables connected to the control back to the throttle and shift locations
of the engine and drive.
The cables should run as straight as possible, avoiding any sharp bends. Make
no bends in the cable tighter than that specifi ed for the cable style you are us-
ing.
Cables should be supported by using cable hangers or running them through
straight sections of conduit for extremely long runs.
Place hand lever in forward position so that, as a result, the shift arm and throttle
arm will take the least amount of space to feed hanger bracket through the panel
cutout (See Figure 7).
Fastening recommendation for normal mounting:
3 each oval head #10 x 1-1/4 inch long self tapping screws are furnished.
Optional method:
3 each #1- x 1-1/2 inch long bolts with fl at washers and nylock nuts.
