Introduction
With the Vetus mechanical remote engine control both the gearbox
and the throttle can be controlled my means of one lever.

Installation
2.1
Pull-push cables on the mechanism
The mechanism is directly suitable for control of the:
• throttle (to accelerate)
• gearbox (to change gear)
- 'push to go forward' and 'pull to go backward'
- 'push to go backward' and 'pull to go forward'
When in doubt, consult the engine supplier if is it not clear how the
control of the engine is arranged with regard to accelerating and
changing gear ('pushing' or 'pulling').
Always connect the cables to the mechanism first. You should
only connect the cables to the gearbox and the throttle after
the complete remote control mechanism has been installed.
Always remove the lever and part
RCTOP..) or the lever and the plate
nism, before the cables are mounted on the mechanism (see draw-
ing on right-hand page).
Besides the cable type 33C supplied by Vetus and Morse, the mecha-
nism is also suitable for use with cable type OS from OMC and cable
type KM from Mercury.
The mounting holes in the mechanism are numbered. These num-
bers correspond with the type of cable:

Ensure that both functions of the mechanism are in the neutral posi-
tion before connecting the cables.
Connecting the gas cable:
'Pushing' accelerating
: see drawing 1 on page 14
'Pulling' accelerating
: see drawing 2 on page 14
Connecting the gear cable:
'Pushing-forward' and 'pulling-backwards' gear change:
see drawing 3 on page 14
'Pushing-backwards' and 'pulling-forward' gear change:
see drawing 4 on page 14

When installing the cables, also take note of the following points:
• Make sure you have enough (total) length of cable.
• Make as few bends in the cable as possible, and use the largest
possible bending radius (at least 500 mm (20")).
• The cables must be clamped at regular distances (every 60 cm
(24")).
• Do not install the cables close to heat sources, such as the various
parts of the exhaust system.
• Prevent abrasion of the cable.
• After installation on the mechanism, check whether the cables
can move without appreciable resistance.
2.2
Pull-push cables on the engine
Connect the cables with the gearbox and the throttle, as prescribed
by the engine supplier.
Check whether the throttle lever on the engine reaches its end posi-
tion when the lever is at its farthest position.
Also check to make sure the gearbox works correctly.
2.3
Neutral switch
The mechanism is also equipped with a neutral switch. The neutral
switch prevents the engine from being started while the gearbox is
still engaged.
If the neutral switch is to be used, connect it as shown in the electri-
cal circuit diagrams on page 15.
2.4
Multiple remote controls
Whenever a engine is fitted out with two remote controls, differen-
tial devices should be procured.
With differential devices, both remote controls can be connected
to one another, so that the engine can be independently controlled
from two places.
Two differential devices are needed per engine, namely one for the
gearbox and one for the throttle. See drawing on page 15.
2.5
Housing and Lever
When selecting the place where the housing and lever will be
mounted, account for the maximum swing that the lever can make.
Also account for the total height of the mechanism. See drawing
'Principal dimensions' .
