TRANSMISSION
TROUBLESHOOTING
CONTROL
CABLES
The
majority
of transmission difficulties arise
as
a result
of
improper clutch adjustments (manual transmissions)
or
. problems
with
control cables (hydraulic transmissions)
rather
than
from
problems with
the
transmission itself.
A
new
cable
and
perhaps a
new
linkage mechanism
may
be
needed. While the cable
is
loose, shift
the
transmission
in
and
out
of
gear using the lever on the side
of
the transmission
to
make sure there's no binding inside the case.
HURTH!ZF clutches,
in
particular, are very sensitive
to
improper cable adjustments.
If
you
experience operating problems
with
the
transmission,
shut
the
engine down. First check
the
transmission-fluid
level,
then
have a helper
move
the cockpit shift lever through
the
full
range -
from
neutral
to
full
forward, back
to
neutral, into
full
reverse, and back
to
neutral - while
you
observe the actuating lever on the transmission.
If
the remote
is stiff to operate, break the cable loose at the transmission
and
try
again.
If
it
is
still stiff, check
the
cable for kinks
or
excessively tight bends,
and
check
any
linkage
for
binding.
If
the transmission passes these tests, crank
the
engine
and
have a helper put it
in
forward
and
reverse while
you
observe
the propeller shaft; if the shaft isn't turning,
the
transmission
needs professional attention.
If
it
does
turn
but there's
no
thrust, check
to
see
you
still have a propeller
on
the
end
of
the shaft
or,
if
you
have a folding or feathering propeller,
