Page 20 / 22 90-8M0103111 FEBRUARY 2015
1. Check all fasteners which secure the control housing to the control module, and the control and module to the boat.
Tighten any loose fasteners to the specified torque listed in the installation instructions.
2. Check the control handle retaining screw to ensure that it is tightened to the specified torque. If the screw has been
removed for any reason, Loctite 271 Threadlocker should be applied to the screw threads before installation.
3. Check electrical connections to be sure that they are tight, free of corrosion, and that all harnesses are properly secured
and kept away from water.
4. Inspection and lubrication of the remote control assembly should be performed once each year by your authorized
dealer. Lubrication should also be performed if the remote control is disassembled, or if control operating effort has
increased. Lubricate with 2‑4‑C with PTFE or equivalent.
5. Yearly inspection of the cables for free‑play should coincide with the dealer inspection and lubrication. Cable ends should
be disconnected from both the engine and the control. Cable ends should be manually manipulated to feel for stiffness,
binding, or tightness affecting the cable core. Worn, pinched, or corroded cables should be replaced. Mercury/Quicksilver
GEN II throttle and shift cables are required for use in this remote control.
