Garmin 906-1090-05 Reconfirm that the throttle returns freely to full Idle

Figure 24

Step Twenty:

Step Nineteen:

Re-install the lower covers of the motor. Secure Throttle cable in a position where it will not get damaged, cause problems with other parts, or get pinched between the motor frame and the covers.

Reconfirm that the throttle returns freely to full Idle.

Route the throttle control wire out of the motor covers and to the Electrohydraulic Unit. Secure the wire and be sure the routing to the box allows for full travel of the motor in both directions plus tilt. Take care that the wire does not get kinked, twisted or pinched.

Replace cover (cowling). Re-connect the lanyard and/or

Re-connect motor to battery.

Testing the Actuator Functions:

Please refer to the startup section of your owner’s manual before operating your handheld and running the throttle actuator.

1.With the outboard in the water, or with a proper coolant flush device connected, start the outboard and let it warm up to operating conditions. Be prepared to kill the outboard ignition if the idle speed is too high when the engine starts.

2.With the outboard in idle position make sure there is proper slack in the pull string on the throttle actuator. If the motor does not go to idle, reposition the string by loosening the pinch screw on the brass pivot.

3.Using the UP ARROW button on the Handheld verify that the engine rpm’s go up. Using the IDLE/

RESUME button on the handheld verify that the engine returns to idle. Check the throttle up and down several times along with the idle/res and verify that you don’t have any problems.
