Bulletin No. SB-884
SUBJECT: Electric shift switch for test tank use.
40 h.p. RK(L)-24, Electramatic;
75 h.p. V4A(L)-14, Electramatic.
Our 40 and 75 h.p. electric shift engines for
1962 have no provisions for shifting gears
without the remote control box or an equiva-
lent electric control.
Figure 1 illustrates a special switch developed
by Stevens Experimental, their part #S-24,
and is designed for test tank installation to
facilitate shifting the 1962 - 40 and 75 h.p.
electric shift engines. This switch eliminates
the necessity and expense of installing an
electric shift type remote control box at
the test tank. In order to conserve additional
expense and space, the switch was designed to
be used in conjunction with the 1961 - 40 h.p.
electric and 75 h.p. alternator junction boxes. The assembly consists of a switch-plate,
a three-position switch (forward, neutral, reverse), and two complete circuits; one for
the 40 h.p., and one for the 75 h.p. electric shift engines.
Complete installation instructions are furnished with each switch kit. When installed,
this switch does not prevent using the junction boxes to test the standard, manually
shifted engines.
The price of this switch assembly is $4.95 each, net, f.o.b. Waukegan, Illinois.
Illinois resident dealers add the 4% state sales tax.
