HELM CONTROL SYSTEMS
2.1 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.
2.2 Engine Throttle and Shift Controls
The shift and throttle controls on your boat may vary depending on
the engine used. The following control description is typical of
most outboard remote controls. Refer to the engine or control
manual for specific information on the controls installed on your
Pursuit.
The engine throttle and shift control system consists of three major
components: the control handle, the throttle cable, and the shift
cable. The cables are the push-pull type. Two cables are required.
One connects the remote throttle control to the carburetor or fuel
injection system and the other connects the remote shift control to
the engine shift rod linkage.
The helm on your Pursuit is designed for a binnacle style control with a single lever that operates
as a gear shift and a throttle. General operation will include a position for neutral (straight up and
down), a forward position (the 1st detente forward of neutral), and a reverse position (the 1st detente
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. See your engine owner’s
manual for details of this operation.
