Selecting Remote Control Cables
Mercury ‑ Mariner ‑ Force ‑ Mercury MerCruiser
Refer to the Mercury Precision Parts Accessories Guide for the available shift and throttle
cables for your application. This control requires the use of Mercury/Quicksilver GEN II
shift and throttle cables.
IMPORTANT: Remote control cables must be the correct length, sharp bends on
too‑short cables result in kinks; too‑long cables require unnecessary bends and/or loops.
Both conditions place extra stress on the cables.
IMPORTANT: Shift cable/throttle cable lubrication points use 2‑4‑C With Teflon.
