CABLE AND HOSE
INSTALLATION
Before installation, identify all required wiring,
cables, and hoses:
• Throttle and shift cables
• Instrument harnesses
• Battery cables and switches
• Oil tank sender harness
• Fuel supply hose
• Primer bulb or primer pump
• Oil supply hose.
Determine whether any additional wiring or hoses
will be needed for accessory gauges or batteries:
• Speedometer pick-up hose
• Mechanical water pressure gauge hose
• Accessory battery charging kit
• I-Command adapter harnesses
• I-Command water pressure sensor kit
• I-Command oil level sensor kit.
Boat Cable and Harness Routing
Remote control cables, wiring, and hoses must
follow a similar path into the lower motor covers.
Select the best routing for the specific application.
All cables, wiring, and hoses must be long enough
to provide adequate slack. Check clearances at all
possible combinations of trim angles and steering
positions.
