Mercury – Two Station Throttle and Shift Kit | Dual Control Rigging Hardware | 8M0046250

The Mercury Two Station Throttle and Shift Kit is designed for rigging dual control stations on Mercury non-DTS mechanical control systems. It provides the required hardware to connect two helm stations to a single engine, allowing throttle and shift inputs to remain synchronized and predictable from either location. This kit is commonly used in flybridge, tower, or dual-helm conversions where proper linkage alignment and stable adjustment are critical.

Intended for marine technicians and experienced installers, this kit supports clean, reliable dual-station mechanical control on compatible Mercury outboard and inboard platforms. OEM-specified geometry helps ensure both stations operate smoothly without binding, control conflict, or uneven engagement.

From a maintenance perspective, using the correct OEM dual-station hardware helps reduce premature wear caused by misalignment or unstable adjustments. Properly matched components support consistent cable travel and long-term reliability in multi-station mechanical control systems.

Key Features

• Dual-Station Control Hardware – Connects two throttle and shift control stations to a single engine
• Precision-Threaded Components – Support proper linkage alignment and adjustment range
• Mechanical (Non-DTS) Compatible – Designed specifically for Mercury mechanical throttle and shift systems
• OEM Rigging Geometry – Built to factory specifications for stable, predictable dual-station operation

Engine & Control Compatibility

• Mercury outboards
• Mercury inboard platforms (MCM and MIE)
• Mechanical (non-DTS) throttle and shift control systems
• Compatible with Mercury mechanical control installations requiring dual-station throttle and shift capability

Important Notes

• Dual-station installations require careful cable routing and precise mechanical adjustment.
• After installation, verify full throttle and shift travel from both control stations.
• Confirm clean gear engagement and neutral positioning at each helm.
• No electronic or digital calibration is required.

FAQs

1) What is this kit used for?
It allows two mechanical control stations to operate throttle and shift on a single Mercury engine.

2) Is this kit compatible with DTS systems?
No. This kit is for mechanical (non-DTS) throttle and shift systems only.

3) Can this be used on both outboards and inboards?
Yes. It is compatible with select Mercury outboard and inboard (MCM/MIE) platforms using mechanical controls.

4) Is professional installation recommended?
Yes. Dual-station rigging requires precise routing and adjustment to ensure smooth, conflict-free operation.

5) Does this kit include cables?
No. This kit provides rigging hardware only. Control cables are selected separately based on installation layout.
