Verify gear-shift travel
The shifting travel, as measured at the pivot point of
the actuating lever, between the neutral position (N)
and end positions (A) and (B) must be:
MS25L
35–50 mm (1.4–2.0 ") for the outer pivot point (C)
30–43 mm (1.2–1.7") for the inner pivot point (D)
HS25A, HS45A, HS63A, HS63V
30–35 mm (1.2–1.4 ") for the outer pivot point (C)
25–30 mm (1.0–1.2") for the inner pivot point (D)
NOTE! A larger amount of lever travel is in no way
detrimental.
Position A: Right hand propeller rotation
Position B: Left hand propeller rotation

Trolling valve
Trolling valves can be fitted on reverse gears HS25,
HS45 and HS63 as an accessory.
The trolling valve will reduce the oil pressure on the
disc pack, which will make it slip in a controlled way.
The speed of the propeller shaft can be reduced up to
80% compared to in a non-slipping condition. There is
normally an engine rpm limit up to which the trolling
valve can be used. A thermostat valve is fitted to
keep the oil temperature stable.
The benefit of the trolling valve is reduction of the
idling speed of the boat or the option of increasing en-
gine rpm at low boat speed, for example in order to
use pumps etc. during fishing.
For operating a trolling valve, a single-acting control
with a pushing movement shall be used.
Install the trolling function control cable (2) on the out-
er lever.
