Cruise Control Actuator Cable Adjustment
1. Hold the cable sheath, removing all slack from the throttle cable.

2. Turn the adjusting nut (A) until it is 3 mm (1/8 in.) away from the throttle cable bracket.
3. Tighten the locknut (B). The throttle cable deflection should now be 4-6 mm (0.16 - 0.24 in.).

4. Remove the actuator cover, then disconnect the actuator cable end from the cruise control actuator.

5. Turn the adjusting nut (A) until it is 9 mm (0.35 in.) away from the actuator cable bracket when the throttle linkage starts open.

6. Pull the cable so that the adjusting nut (A) touches the bracket, and tighten the lockout (B).
7. Verify that the throttle linkage starts open when the actuator cable is pulled 9 mm (0.35 in.) distance from the starting point by rotating the actuator linkage.
