IMPORTANT: The steering link rod that connects the steering cable to the engine
must be fastened using special washer head bolt (“a” – Part Number 10-856680) and
self locking nylon insert locknut (“d” - Part Number 11-826709113) and self locking
nylon insert locknut (“b” – Part Number 11-34932). These locknuts must never be re-
placed with common nuts (non locking) as they will work loose and vibrate off freeing
the link rod to disengage.
WARNING
Disengagement of a steering link rod can result in the boat taking a full, sudden,
sharp turn. This potentially violent action can cause occupants to be thrown over-
board exposing them to serious injury or death.
