Installation

Install the remote and cables in accordance with the instructions which accompany them

throttle effort, be sure to observe the following important information:
• Do not fasten the cables to the boat or any other objects within 92 cm (3 ft.) of the
remote control and engine attaching points.
• Keep bends to a minimum.
• Route cables so that they do not have less than an 20 cm (8 in.) radius at all bends.
• Ensure that the cables are not kinked or pinched.
• Lubricate the cable guides and pivot points with 2-4-C Marine Lubricant or motor oil.
Tube Ref No.
• Tighten cable attaching nuts until they contact, then loosen 1/2 turn (until the washer
under the nut can be turned with your fingers). The attaching points must be free to
pivot.
