Attaching the Steering Link Rod
!
WARNING
Improper fasteners or improper installation procedures can result
in loosening or disengagement of the steering link rod. This can
cause a sudden, unexpected loss of boat control, resulting in
serious injury or death due to occupants being thrown within or
out of the boat. Always use required components and follow
instructions and torque procedures.
NOTE: The steering link rod parts are available and assembled as
illustrated on the next page. Spacers may or may not be required,
depending on cable brands.
1. Connect the steering link rod to the tip of the steering cable.
Tighten the rod using a self‑locking nut, making sure the rod
can swing freely.
2. Connect the other tip of the rod to the steering bracket with a
bolt, applying a collar and washer. The bolt head must face
downward. Secure with a cotter pin to the bolt.
