Axis Clutch Adjustment


Tools required:

  • H5 Hex Key (NOT INCLUDED) 

1. Remove the rubber access port covers from the top of the base.


2. Adjust the resistance with the highlighted screws using the hex wrench and reinsert the plugs in place.

IMPORTANT!  For the correct operation of the mechanism; when adjusting damper the screws must be adjusted equally.

 

3. The throttle twist axis resistance can be adjusted by tightening or loosening the highlighted collar.


Operating the Engine Idle Stop

The throttle correction twist axis has it's travel range separated by an idle stop detent, the idle stop position is marked with a triangle icon for clarity. 

When rotating the grip anti-clockwise (according to the arrows), there will be a tactile click when passing through the idle stop position and the handle can continue to rotate to the "full max" position. When reversing the rotation, the idle stop position will prevent the handle from rotating any further.



 

To rotate the handle back to the "full stop" position, it is necessary to push the Engine Idle button and continue the rotation. A button command can also be assigned to the Engine Idle button within the simulator.

Engaging the lock switch will limit the rotation to the throttle correction handle to the "full stop" position until the idle stop position. When the lock switch is engaged, the Engine Idle button is excluded from the rotation lock mechanism.

IMPORTANT! The lock switch should only be engaged when the throttle correction handle is in the "full stop" position marked with a square icon.


Installing the Bracket


Tools required:

  • Phillips Screwdriver (NOT INCLUDED) 
  • H5 Hex Key (NOT INCLUDED)

Option #3

7. Secure the spring with a clamp using a bolt.

8. Return the base to its initial position, tighten the clutch, and install the limiter.


9. Adjust the load of the compensator using the screw (clockwise – decrease in effort; counterclockwise – increase in effort).

Adjustment of the counter balance must be carried out together with the clutch! 


After using the device, leave the lever in the upper position (this will prevent the spring from shrinking and increase the life of the device)!
