Shift Cable Routing
Route the intermediate shift cable from the transom assembly to the shift actuator as follows:
1. The cable should come through the transom, above the exhaust pipe and turn toward the starboard side of the boat
between the exhaust pipe and the engine flywheel housing.
2. The cable should then be routed under the starboard rear engine mount and turn toward the transom.
3. The cable should then go up behind the power steering valve and loop over to the shift actuator on the engine.
NOTE: Following this routing will prevent the engine coupler from damaging the cable.
