An ad-juster lever is located on the bottom of thetiller handle bracket.To increase resistance, turn the lever to theport side “A”.To decrease resistance, turn the lever to thestarboard side “B”.WARNINGEWM00040Do not overtighten the friction adjuster. Ifthere is too much resistance, it could bedifficult to steer, which could result in anaccident.If the resistance does not increase evenwhen the lever is turned to the port side “A”,make sure that the nut is tightened to thespecified torque.TIP:● Steering movement is blocked when theONOFF STARTZMU045671.
