CXO300 OWNER’S MANUAL
5.2.2 CHECKING CONTROLS
Figure: Check steering for resistance
Rotate the steering wheel lock-to-lock and check for abnormal resistance or any rough spots. Do not leave port
unless the steering system feels smooth and consistent.
WARNING
Operating your outboard(s) without robust helm controls in
good working condition is a danger to life.
Figure: Control head lever neutral range
Check inside your helm station for any loose or damaged wiring connections and correct as necessary.
When in doubt, contact an authorized Cox Powertrain dealer for assistance.
Check that your throttle lever is in the neutral position prior to attempting to start your outboard(s). Note
that by law, all Cox diesel outboards feature start-in-gear protection, which will prevent the outboard(s)
from cranking if the control lever is not in the neutral position.
