4. Maintenance & Inspection

Adju
s
ting
the
Remote
Control
Cable
The various control levers on the engine
side are connected to
the
remote control
lever by the remote
co
ntrol cabl
e.
The
cable will become s
tr
etched and the
attachments
loose a
ft
er long hours
of
use
causing deviation.
It
is dangerous to
control operation under these conditions,
and the remote control
cable must be
checked and adjusted
periodically.
A) Adjusting the Governor Remote Control
Cable
Check to see that the control lever on the
engine side moves
to
the high speed bolt
position and low speed bolt position when
the remote
control lever is moved to
H(high speed) and
L(low speed)
respectively.
When there is deviation, loosen the
bracket for the remote
control cable on the
engine side and adjust.
Adjust the high speed bolt position first
and then adj
ust
the low speed idling.
B)
Adjusting the Clutch Remote Control
Cable
Check
to
see that the control lever moves
to
the correct position when the remote
control handle is
put
in NEUTRAL,
FORWARD,
REVERS
E.
Use the NEUTRAL position as the stand-
ard for adjustment. When there is devia-
tion,
loosen the bracket for the remote
control cable on the
clutch side and
adjust.

Electric
Operation
A WARNING
Before
inspecting
the
electrical
system,
be sure
either
to
turn
off
the
battery
switch
or
to
disconnect
the
(-)
terminal
of
the
earth
cab
le.
Otherwise
, a
short
-
circuit
could
c
ause
a fire.
Ensure
good
ventilation
when
charging
the
battery.
The
use
of
open
flames
is
strictly
prohibited
.
Hydrogen
gas
may
also
catch
fire.
38
Battery
fluid
is
diluted
sulfuric
acid.
It
can
blind
you
or
burn
your
eyes
or
skin.
Wear
goggles
and
gloves
when
handling
battery
fluid
.
Should
the
fluid
be
deposited
on
your
skin
,
wash
with
a
large
quantity
of
fresh
water
and
seek
treatment
from
a
doctor.
1)
If
operation continues with insufficient
battery fluid, the battery will
be
destroyed.
Check the fluid level periodically.
If
the
level is lower than specified, resupply
battery fluid (available in the market)
up
to
the
upper
limit
of
the battery.
(Battery fluid tends
to
eva
por
ate in high
temperatures,
especially in summer. In
such cases, inspect the battery earlier than
specified.)
2)
If
the engine speed will
not
rise
and
the
engine cannot
be
started, measure the
specific gravity with a pycnometre (avail-
able in the market).
The specific gravity
of
the fluid when fully
charged is over 1.27(at 20°
C).
Fluid with a specific gravity of below 1.24
needs charging.
If the specific gravity
cannot be raised by charging, the battery
must
be
replaced.

The
capa
ci
tie
s
of
the
standard
alternator
and
the
recommended
battery
assume
only
the
power
necessary
for
regular
operat
ion
.
If
the
power
is
also
used
for
inboard
lighting
or
other
purpos-
es,
the
generating
and
charging
capacities
may
be
insufficient. In
such
cases
