HELM CONTROL SYSTEMS
4.1 General
The helm controls consist of three systems: the
engine throttle and shift controls, the steering
system and the trim tab control switches. These
systems provide the operator with the ability to
control the direction and attitude of the boat from
the helm station.
Each manufacturer of the control components
provides an owner’s manual with its product. It is
important that you read the manuals and become
familiar with the proper care and operation of the
control systems.
4.2 Engine Throttle and Shift Controls
The shift and throttle controls on your boat may
vary depending on the engine and options se-
lected. The following description is typical of most
cable and electronic remote controls. Refer to the
engine or control manual for specific information
on the controls installed on your Boat.
Cable Engine Controls
Cable engine throttle and shift control systems
consists of three major components: the control
handle, the throttle cable, and the shift cable. The
cables are all the push-pull type. Two cables are
required for each engine and control. One con-
nects the remote throttle control to the engine
and the other connects the remote shift control
to the drive shift linkage.
The helm on single engine boats is designed for a
side mount control with a single lever that oper-
ates as a gear shift and a throttle. General op-
eration will include a position for neutral (straight
up and down), a forward position (the 1st detent
forward of neutral), and a reverse position (the 1st
detent aft of neutral). Advancing the control lever
beyond the shift range advances the throttle in
forward or reverse. Each control is equipped with
a means of permitting the engine to be operated
at a higher than idle RPM while in neutral for cold
starting and warm-up purposes.
