• Lubricate the throttle and shaft cables, moving components and pivot locations.
WARNING
The end of the steering cable must be fully retracted into the outboard tilt tube
before adding lubricant. Adding lubricant to steering cable when fully extended
could cause steering cable to become hydraulically locked. An hydraulically locked
steering cable will cause loss of steering control, possibly resulting in serious
injury or death.
• Rotate steering wheel (if so equipped) to fully retract the steering cable end into
the outboard tilt tube. Lubricate steering cable through grease fitting and cable
end.
