ADJUSTING THE STEERING CABLE
The steering cable tension is pre-set at the factory but will, through normal use, need occasional adjustment.
Adjust the tension of the cables by turning the cable tension adjustment screw (Phillips pan-head screw) located near the bottom
of the foot pedal, just under the steering cable cover.
Turn the screw clockwise to increase tension and counter-clockwise to decrease tension.
NOTE:
If the cable becomes too loose, it may disengage the wrap drum in the control box or the pulley in the foot pedal.
