1. Lay the cable into the actuator and install the dust seal (E).
2. Re-install the actuator cover (See figure 4-11).
3. Repeat steps 1 to 4 for the other throttle actuator, if applicable.
4.2.3 Final Setup and Actuator Adjustment
SHIFT
Successful installation of the shift cables should accomplish the
following goals:
• To have shift cables adjusted so neutral position of actuator
represents neutral position of engine shift linkage.
• To set the stroke length to achieve full engagement of gear yet
not interfere with physical shift linkage limit.
• To have both gears fully disengage when returned to neutral.
Procedure
1. Turn ignition on but do not start engines.
2. Navigate to Dealer Menu > Initial Setup > Shift & Throttle >
Adjust Port Shift Actuator.
DANGER
THIS PROCEDURE REQUIRES
TURNING A PROPELLER BY HAND
WITH THE IGNITION ON. USE
EXTREME CAUTION.
Figure 4-14.
3. While an assistant spins the port engine prop by hand, use the
control lever to put the port engine into forward gear. Check
that the gear engages fully.
4. If the gear does not fully engage, increase the Forward Stroke
parameter by 1 mm at a time, press Save, and repeat the test
until gear engagement is satisfactory.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 in reverse gear, this time adjusting the
Reverse Stroke parameter.
NOTICE
It is not uncommon to have stroke
length a little longer for the push
direction gear to take up the lost
motion of the cable in the push
direction. This is more pronounced
with longer cables.
