General
Shift Cable Installation and
Adjustment
The Hurth transmission is a “full power reversing”
transmission, allowing a standard (LH rotation) en-
gine to be used for both rotations. Propeller rotation
is determined by shift cable attachment at the remote
control.
IMPORTANT: When installing shift cables, be
sure that cables are routed in such a way as to
avoid sharp bends and/or contact with moving
parts. DO NOT fasten any items to shift cables.
IMPORTANT: These Hurth transmissions are full
reversing transmissions. Direction of output/
propeller rotation is determined by hookup of
shift cable at remote control.
!
CAUTION
Avoid severe transmission damage. ALL Hurth
transmissions require standard left-hand rota-
tion engines. NEVER connect a Hurth transmis-
sion to a right-hand rotation engine.
NOTE: Shift cable must be hooked up to remote con-
trol before starting installation and adjustment proce-
dures.
IMPORTANT: Transmission propeller rotation is
determined by the shift cable installation in the
remote control.
For Standard Left-Hand Rotation – shift cable
hookup at remote control must result in shift cable
end guide moving in direction (B), when remote con-
trol handle is placed in forward position.
•
RIGHT-HAND PROPELLER ROTATION - Con-
trol cable will have to be installed in remote con-
trol so that cable end will move in direction (A)
when shift handle is placed in the forward posi-
tion.
For Right-Hand Rotation – shift cable hookup at re-
mote control must result in shift cable end guide mov-
ing in direction (A), when remote control handle is
placed in forward position.
