Important!
Throttle cable is very susceptible to kinking and should therefore be installed with great care. A single small kink can lead to difficult operation to breakdown at a later date.
Cables wich have been kinked should never be installed. During installation take particular care that cable is aligned between is supports and the cable attachment points.

Note:

Lubricate all joints and sliding surfaces with multi-purpose grease.
