4. Secure the cable end to the pin with the cir-
clip.
5. Fit the anchor over the ridge and around the
clamp.
6. Likewise, connect the throttle control cable
(for the throttle) to the throttle arm.
7. Secure the back plate with the four screws.
Mounting
1. Mount the 701 remote control as shown in the
illustration.
2. Verify that there is sufficient clearance for the
full movement of the hand control and con-
trol mechanism. Route the cables as straight
as possible from the control to the motor
along the path previously chosen. There
should be no bends of less than a 4-inch
radius. The cables should be supported with
cable hangers, or, for long runs, by running
them through conduit.
Throttle Connection
Proper adjustment of the throttle cable(s) will
help ensure long component life. Proper adjust-
ment is achieved when the engine speed remains
at idle during shifting and will only increase when
the hand lever is moved beyond the shift detent.
1. Make sure the engine is running at the correct
idle speed. Adjust if necessary.
CAUTION:
The throttle cable should not be connected to
the engine when making idle adjustments. The
cable, if connected, may cause the engine idle
speed or idle ignition timing to be incorrect.
2. Place the hand lever of the control in the neu-
tral detent.
3. Place the carburetor arm lightly against the
idle stop.
