Yanmar® stop cables are steel cables
with a steel jacket. In order to maintain the cable in good working order it's important
to grease the cable periodically with a water-proof grease. This is done by loosening the
locking screw in the barrel at the engine side of the cable. Pulling the inside cable out
at the panel, take a water proof grease and generously coat the cable and shank. When the
cable is reinserted, make certain the cable is pushed all the way in and the shut down arm
is in the complete run position before locking the barrel screw back up.
