STEERING 12-17
Reverse System
Shift Cable Adjustment
•
Check the shift cable adjustment.
•
When the shift lever is in the “F” position, the lower edge
[A] of the bucket should be held above the top [B] of the
steering nozzle with slight play so it doesn’t interfere with
the water flow from the jet pump.
•
When the shift lever is in the “R” position, the lower stop-
per [C] on the bucket should rest against the bottom [D]
of the pump cover.
If either position is incorrect, adjust the shift cable.
•
Put the shift lever in the “R” position.
•
Loosen the locknut [A] at the end of the shift cable.
•
Slide back the outer sleeve and take the ball joint [B] off
the ball.
•
Turn the ball joint on the cable to adjust the shift cable.
•
Connect the ball joint and check the cable adjustment
again.
•
When adjustment is correct, tighten the shift cable lock-
nut.
Shift Cable Removal

Take out the storage case screws [A] and remove the stor-
age case [B].
