SHIFT LEVER, 800 SERIES

$29.30

Description
  1. Functionality: The shift lever is responsible for actuating the gear shifting mechanism in marine propulsion systems, allowing the operator to select different gears such as forward, neutral, and reverse. It is an essential interface between the operator and the gearbox, enabling precise control over the propulsion system.
  2. Design: The shift lever is designed to withstand the rigors of marine environments, featuring a sturdy construction with ergonomic grips for comfortable operation. It may incorporate features such as detents or locking mechanisms to ensure positive engagement and prevent accidental shifting.
  3. Compatibility: Specifically engineered for use with the 800 series marine propulsion systems, the shift lever is designed to be compatible with the gearbox configuration and mounting points of these systems. It ensures proper fitment and reliable performance in marine applications.
  4. Material Composition: The shift lever is typically constructed from durable materials such as stainless steel, aluminum, or reinforced plastics to withstand exposure to saltwater, UV radiation, and mechanical stresses. This ensures longevity and resistance to corrosion and degradation.
  5. Installation: Installation of the shift lever involves mounting it to the gearbox housing or control mechanism using appropriate fasteners and hardware. Proper alignment and adjustment are crucial to ensure smooth and precise operation of the gear shifting mechanism.
  6. Safety: The shift lever is a safety-critical component in marine propulsion systems, and proper operation is essential to prevent accidents or damage to the vessel. Operators should be trained in the correct use of the shift lever and adhere to safety protocols and procedures.
