3. Place the escutcheon plate over the
cable hole and use it as a guide to
mark the two escutcheon plate
mounting holes. Remove the plate, drill
two 9/64" diameter x 5/8" deep holes,
and then fill both holes with
marine-grade silicone sealant. Place the
escutcheon plate over the cable hole and
attach with two #8 x 5/8" wood screws.
Hand tighten only!
4. Route and secure the cable by attaching
the cable clamp to the transom; drill one
9/64" diameter x 5/8" deep hole, then fill
hole with marine-grade silicone sealant,
then attach the cable clamp using a
#8 x 5/8" screw. Hand tighten only!
NOTE: If there is excess cable that needs to be
gathered at one location (as shown in the
illustration), dress the cable routed from both
directions so that a single loop is left extending
from the storage location. Doubling the cable up
from this point, form the cable into a coil. Storing
excess cable using this method can reduce
electronic interference (Figure 26).
5. Plug the cable connector back into the
control head. The slots are keyed to prevent
reverse installation, so be careful not to force
the connector into the holder.
Your control head is now ready for operation.
