OUTBOARD RIGGING
Cable, Hose, and Wire Routing
Refer to Control Cable Identification on p. 38.
Remove cable retainer from anchor block. Apply
Triple-Guard grease to both anchor block pockets.
Move the remote control handle to NEUTRAL and
make sure throttle is in the IDLE position.
Apply soapy water to the inside surfaces of grom-
met and install cables and fuel line as shown:
Place the grommet into position in the lower
engine cover.
When grommet is in place and all cables have
been installed, tighten a tie strap around the out-
side of the grommet to form a watertight seal
around the cables.
Control Cable Adjustments
IMPORTANT: DO NOT attach cables to throttle
and shift levers until all cables, wires, and hoses
have been routed and grommet has been placed
into the lower engine cover.
Pull firmly on shift cable casing to remove slack.
With outboard in NEUTRAL, place the cable trun-
nion into the lower anchor pocket. Adjust the trun-
nion nut so the casing fits onto the shift lever pin.
If there are not enough threads on the shift cable
for the adjustment, or if the gearcase does not
shift fully into FORWARD or REVERSE, refer to
SHIFT ROD ADJUSTMENT on p. 266.
CAUTION
To prevent accidental starting while servic-
ing, disconnect the battery cables at the
battery. Twist and remove all spark plug
leads.
