watercraft. (Straight)
2. Place a straight edge across horizontal center line
of steering nozzle or trim nozzle.
3. Measure distance from straight edge to hull on left
and right side. Be sure to measure at right angles to
the straight edge and at equal distances from the
nozzle. The distance at (X) should be equal when
handlebars are straight.
4. Adjustments can be made at the adjuster block.

measurements equal.

Reverse Cable Adjustment
Under normal operation, the reverse cable should not
require adjustment. If the reverse linkage does not func-

linkage, fasteners, brackets, and pivots for wear or dam-
age. When a new cable is installed the cable must be
adjusted.
1. Place reverse shift lever in reverse position.
2. Loosen cable adjuster nuts.
3. Verify that the gate is in its full down position and
locked.
4. Check gate locking by pulling up on gate when in
down position.
5. Move shift lever to forward position. Reverse gate
must be well above the water stream.
6. Tighten adjuster nuts securely.
7. Seal the cable threads and adjuster nuts with
marine grade silicone sealant (PN 8560054) and
tighten securely. Allow sealant to cure fully before
operating craft.
