Throttle Cable - Vetus AFSTTOP Instrucciones De Instalación Y Manejo

Throttle cable

Because the throttle cable moves back and forth when in use, it
must not be fixed too close to the mechanism with a bracket; this
would restrict movement. This can cause excess strain on the mech-
anism resulting in stiff throttling and premature wear of the throttle
outer cable.
For this reason the throttle cable must be fed to the mechanism
2.3 Connecting the pull-push cables
Always connect the cables to the mechanism first. Connecting
the cables to the gearbox and the engine must only be done
when the entire remote control is installed.
Attaching throttle cable to the mechanism
• Remove the nut (7) and both rubber seals (8) from the throttle
cable.
• Guide the cable through the throttle cable bracket.
• Replace both rubber seals and the nut onto the throttle cable.
• Secure the throttle cable with the lock pin (bobby pin) (9) as
shown.
• Screw the cable nipple (10) onto the end of the throttle cable so
that 4 mm thread protrudes from the cable nipple.
• Secure the cable nipple with the nut (7).
• Place the cable nipple on the throttle lever and secure the cable
nipple with the cotter pin (11).
2.4 Connecting the pull-push cables to the mechanism
To prevent the gearbox lever (12) from being blocked unintention-
ally, the knob (13) on the operating lever must never be pressed in
if the mechanism and the cables are not yet attached.
Should the gearbox lever block, then it must be turned back by
hand to neutral position. It is not possible to turn the operating
lever back to the neutral position with the operating lever.
• Guide the gearbox cable through the lower part of the mecha-
nism (14), taking care that the outer cable is placed on the correct
side of the mechanism.
• Screw the cable nipple (10) onto the end of the gearbox cable so
that 4 mm thread protrudes from the cable nipple.
• Secure the cable nipple with the nut (7).
• Place the cable nipple on the gearbox lever and secure the cable
nipple with the cotter pin (11).

with 1 or 2 loops close to the mechanism for problem free opera-

Gearbox cable
The gearbox cable is secured in the mechanism and can be fixed in
a bulkhead near the mechanism.
