Improper fasteners or improper installation procedures can result in
loosening or disengagement of the steering link rod. This can cause a
sudden, unexpected loss of boat control, resulting in serious injury or death
due to occupants being thrown within or out of the boat. Always use required
components and follow instructions and torque procedures.
Assemble the steering link rod to the steering cable with a flat washer and
nylon insert locknut. Tighten locknut until it seats, then back nut off 1/4 turn.
Assemble the steering link rod to the engine with bolt, locknut, spacer, and flat
washers. Torque the locknut to specifications.
