Adapter for
mechanical controls
Using an adapter for mechanical controls will enable
you to use any mechanical control in combination
with an EVC engine and electrically or mechanically
shifted reverse gear. The adapter will transfer the me-
chanical push-pull movement into an electric signal.
A neutral switch is fitted on the adapter.
Install the control adapter as close as possible to the
control station to reduce the amount of force needed
to move the control and make sure the location is dry
and easy accessible.
If the adapter has to be installed far away from the
control station there is an extension cable available in
5 m (16.5 ft) and 9 m (29.5 ft) lengths.
NOTE! If your boat is not equipped with an emer-
gency stop switch and it falls into one of the following
categories, installation of an emergency stop switch
is recommended:
- High performance sport boats or small run boats.
- Boats with sensitive steering.
- Boats where the distance from the top of the
gunwale down to the driver’s seat is less than
one foot (30 cm)
Lever friction adjustment
The lever friction can be adjusted with screw. Turn the
screw clockwise to increase drag on the control lever
and counterclockwise to decrease drag on the control
lever.
NOTE! The friction must be adjusted only when the
control lever is in the throttle range. Do not adjust the
friction with the control in neutral.
