Adjusting the friction brake
The lever is fitted with a friction brake to allow
adjustment for easier or stiffer movement as required.
The friction brake only affects movement of the throttle
control lever.
1 Lift away the cover from the control. On side-
mounted controls the lever must be removed first.
2 Move the lever to the half throttle/astern position.
3 Adjust the friction brake by turning the screw
clockwise (+) for stiffer lever movement, and
counterclockwise (-) for easier movement.
4 Replace the cover and the lever.
