STEERING TENSION ADJUSTMENT
The steering on your outboard motor should be
smooth and not too tight. Adjust the steering
tension so that there is only a slight resistance
to steering movement.
To increase the steering tension, turn the steer-
ing tension bolt A clockwise. To decrease the
steering tension, turn the steering tension bolt
counterclockwise.
For auxiliary adjustment, use the steering ten-
sion lever B. To increase the steering tension,
move the lever B to the left. To decrease the
steering tension, move the lever to the right.
NOTE:
• To adjust the initial steering friction, fully
loosen steering tension lever B, then set the
steering friction with steering tension bolt A.
• Do not apply a grease to the area C.
THROTTLE TENSION ADJUSTMENT
The tension of the throttle control grip can be
adjusted according to your preference. To
increase the tension, turn the throttle tension
adjuster A clockwise. To decrease the tension,
turn the adjuster counterclockwise.
IDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENT
The idle speed has been factory adjusted
between 800 – 900 r/min. in neutral.
NOTE:
If idle speed cannot be set within the specified
range, contact your authorized Suzuki Marine
Dealer.
