Cable, Hose, and Wire Routing
Refer to Control Cable Identification on p. 51.
Remove cable entry grommet cover and grommet.
Remove rubber membrane from grommet holes
as needed.
Install cables and wiring harness(es) through
grommet as shown:
When grommet is in place and all cables have
been installed, tighten a tie strap around the out-
side of the grommet to form a watertight seal
around the cables.
Place blank sealing decal on lip of lower motor
cover at each harness connector tie strap to pre-
vent water intrusion.
After installation, make sure there
is enough clearance for all cables to avoid
binding or chafing through all engine steering
and tilting angles.
Control Cable Installation
Refer to Control Cable Identification on p. 51.
Make sure the remote control is in NEUTRAL, and
throttle is in the IDLE position.
Removal of lower motor covers is NOT required.
Some images show lower covers removed for
clear illustration.
Place the shift cable on the shift lever pin.
Hold the shift linkage in NEUTRAL.
Push and pull on the shift cable and observe the
cable slack. Hold the casing guide in the center of
the slack.

ing, disconnect the battery cables at the
