Re: hard to get out of gear
Welcome!!!!!!<br />Step 1 : order a factory manual at theoutboardwizard.com or kencook website<br />Step 2: Try this<br /><br />1) place control in NEU<br />2) Remove stbd side cover where control cables enter motor<br />3) Remove cover plate (3/8 hex bolt) over the adjust nuts<br />4) Remove clip on end of shift rod and disconnect<br />5) Manually shift motor from Rev to Neu to Fwd and back to Neu<br />6) Adjust barrel nut (adj nut with star on front)so cable reconnects easily and replace clip<br />7) Replace adj cover and cable cover, test.<br />8) You may need SLIGHT adjustments of barrel nut to get full engagement in fwd and rev if your cable has stretched.<br /><br />If your not familiar or comfortable doing this, wait for the manual and the pictures will really help. If cable is really stretched or damaged, replacement may be necessary.<br /><br />Good luck
