1. Carefully check steering system components for
wear. Replace worn parts.
2. Check steering system fasteners to be sure that
they are torqued to correct specifications.
Ride-Guide steering cables are lubricated at the fac-
tory and require no additional lubrication at initial
installation.
WARNING
Core of each steering cable (transom end) must
be fully retracted into cable housing before
lubricating cable. If cable is lubricated while
extended, hydraulic lock could occur.
3. With core of Ride-Guide steering cable (transom
end) fully retracted, lubricate transom end of
steering cables thru grease fittings with 2-4-C w/
Teflon. Lubricate exposed portion of cable ends
with 2-4-C w/Teflon.

joint of link rod/steering coupler with SAE 30W
Motor Oil.

assembly (rotary or straight rack) should be
performed once each year (by your Authorized

Remote Control Installation
Shift Cable Installation and
Adjustment to Engine
IMPORTANT: Install control cables to remote con-
trol and mount remote control BEFORE attaching
control cables to engine.
NOTE:
Attach shift cable to engine first. Shift cable is
the first cable to move when remote control handle is
advanced from neutral position toward in-gear
position.
If remote control has a neutral lock release, secure
the release in the depressed position using a piece of
tape, as shown. Now you can locate the true neutral
detent.

Rotate remote control handle back and forth.
You will feel three detent positions; center detent is
neutral.
1. Position remote control handle in neutral detent.
2. Manually shift engine into neutral (propeller will
rotate freely).
