      If your Powrtran Fishing Equipment system only turns more one way than the other, it might be due to an incorrectly set actuator. To fix this, follow steps 20-26 to properly set the actuator center and/or non-turning point. Then, install the lock-to-lock linkage.

      If your Powrtran Fishing Equipment system only turns more one way than the other, the linkage mounting point might be incorrect. Adjust or reinstall the linkage mounting point, ensuring it's as close to the center of the outboard as possible.

      Michael PierceSep 5, 2025
      If your Powrtran Fishing Equipment system only turns one motor and actuator, it could be caused by shafts not being fully engaged. Remove and reinstall the motor, making sure the shafts remain engaged. Another possible cause is stress on the linkage. Make sure the linkage arm is parallel to the actuator.
