3 Adjust control pressure control cable (98) For this purpose, the tips of the control transfer lever (6) and control pressure control cable transfer lever (7) must be positioned exactly opposite one another with the control pressure control cable hooked in. If necessary, adjust with adjustment screw (11a)
