Bulletin No. SB-950 Remote Control
SUBJECT: #308827 Screw for dual remote control box installation - "ELECTRAMATIC" Engines.
Part #308827 ( 5 3/8" long) screw has been available for quite some time - for use on dual "ELECTRAMATIC" Remote Control Box installations. This item is listed in the rear section of our Johnson Master Price List under "Miscellaneous Service Items", and also at the bottom of the Remote Control Box page in both 40 and 75 H.P. parts catalogs.
Occasionally dealers ask if such an item is available. They are, no doubt, unaware of the listings mentioned in paragraph #1. This is understandable, since previously there has not been a formal notification of the availability of this part.
This screw is made of stainless steel to resist corrosion and its threads are designed for use in either wood or fiberglass.
Order part #308827 from your Parts Distributor. It lists for $.60 each, and your standard parts discount applies.
Sincerely,
JOHNSON MOTORS
