position.

Dual station unit for gear shifting
Suitable for the PC-740, PC-840, PC-860 single control levers. Used in conjunction with a Fly-
bridge for the coordination of two control levers with a single common cable for gear shifting. For 
twin engine installations two DS units are required. The cables should be no longer than 7 metres 
with the DS unit installed as close to the transmission as possible (not more than 1.5 metres from 
the transmission). For best results, the DS unit should be installed horizontally. Contact your local 
Volvo Penta dealer prior to installation, for more detailed information.

Double lever controls - PC-870/871 
- top-mounted
Double lever controls have separate levers for gear changing and ac-
celeration. The accelerator lever has an adjustable friction brake mak-
ing it possible to adjust the “feel” of the lever to personal requirements. 
Two models are available, gear shift to the left or to the right. Double 
lever control for twin engine installations can be combined so as to 
have both accelerator levers in the centre of the installation. A me-
chanical neutral locking device allows gear shifting only at engine idling 
speeds. As an additional safety measure, a neutral safety switch, which 
only allows the engine to be started in the neutral position, is also fitted 
as standard.
The control lever is supplied complete with assembly kit for easy  
installation and connections to Volvo Penta control cables (including 
Xact cable).
For dual control stations with the PC-870/871 controls, 
the following parts are required:
2 x control lever assembly 
2 x connection fork, part no. 1140074 for control cables 
2 x control cable between upper and lower control station 
2 x control cable to engine and transmission respectively
Note! For dual control station installations with the PC-870/871  
control mechanisms, no DS unit is required.

Xact control cables.

Safety lanyard
The safety lanyard is an important safety device, particularly for fast  
moving boats. It consists of two parts, a switch connected to the en-
gines electric system and a cord that is attached to the pilot. Should 
the pilot fall in the boat or fall overboard, the engine is automatically 
stopped.
