Installation
Location of Control
Choose a mounting location for the control head which will provide comfortable operation of the hand lever,
unobstructed movement of mechanism arms and a clear path for cables to engine.
1. Allow adequate clearance for hand and lever swing (forward and reverse positions). See page 13 for the
control dimensions and the recommended clearance around and behind the mounting surface.
. Allow adequate clearance under the console or in the gunwale for the cables AND allow a minimum of 36”
from the cable nest connection with no restraint. When supporting the cables beyond 36”, do not tie or clamp
tightly.
3. After a suitable location for the control is determined, use the separate mounting template to make the cut-out.
The templates are supplied with the control (also see mounting dimensions on page 14).
4. Closely follow the instructions provided on the template. Cut and drill the mounting holes required.
Measuring the Shift Cable
Measure the cable routing path from the control head connection to the engine connection.
Inboards & Stern Drives
Measure from the control connection -- along an unobstructed cable routing -- to the SHIfT connection.
Round this dimension UP to the next whole foot and order the required cable part number.
(Last two digits of the Teleflex cable number equal the length of the cable in feet.)
NOTE: To determine the correct control assembly for inboards with hydraulic transmissions, you must
determine if the Shift Cable “pulls” or “pushes” to go into forward.
