Adjust Rudder Rake
7. Additional play in the assembly can be reduced by the following
procedure:
a. Break open the tiller/rudder housing assembly.
b. Loosen the socket button head screw in the tiller housing about
1/2 turn.
c. Slide the screw forward (towards bow) about 1/64”.
d. Retighten the screw.
CAUTION: This procedure will increase the breakaway tension for the
kick up mechanism by a significant amount. Damage may result
to the assembly from striking obstruction in the water. Chack the
increased kick up tension by repeating step 6.
Less tension (easier kick up)
More tension (easier kick up)
Once the rake is changed, this breakaway tension should be
rechecked. The tension may be increased by turning the internal
screw in the housing clockwise and may be decreased by turning it
counterclockwise.
