Throttle Handle Disassembly- HELP

[Mark Smith]

Need to replace trim switch on throttle handle and cannot seem to figure out how to get the handle off the boat body? I have taken out the cover screws, the 5 rubber cover screws, but cannot get the round push button off that covers the spindle bolt / nut.



Any help would be greatly appreciated....

The problem is in the drivers seat right hand throttle handle. I am replacing the trim (up/down) switch.

What year and shifter style? Click attached Google link for images of Merc throttles and find yours.

This should take you through it. (Commander Series Throttles) Good luck!
