Friction Brake

The remote control has a friction brake, which can be
adjusted as necessary, to provide lighter or heavier le-
ver action. If you are using a Volvo Penta shift control
and you wish to make adjustments to the friction
brake, follow the instructions below to make the nec-
essary changes.
NOTE! Each manufacturer has a particular method
for making adjustments to the friction brake.
For specific directions on how to adjust a
non-Volvo Penta friction brake, please refer
to your manufacturer's manual.
