LOWER UNIT 10-21
CLUTCH ADJUSTMENT
Connect clutch rod to shift rod as shown.
Make sure that chamfered edge of the turnbuckle faces
downward to seat against the lower nut when tightened.
Adjustment step :
1. Shift the clutch lever from Neutral through Forward and Re-
verse to check that proper engagement of both gears is at
an equal angle from Neutral.
• If Forward gear engages earlier (at a smaller angle) than
Reverse, the turnbuckle should be rotated clockwise until
both gears engage with the same amount of clutch lever
travel.
• If Reverse gear engages earlier than Forward, the turn-
buckle should be rotated counterclockwise.
2. Lock the lower nut securely against the turnbuckle when
clutch lever adjustment is correct.
