Morse Control - Help?

you get behind the gunnell and disconnect the cables and remove the bracket that positions the cables. remove the control handle then remove the three screws that hold the cover to the coaming. it should come out with some gentle persuasion! Remember how everything looks before you take it apart. a really short standard blade screwdriver and a lighted make-up mirror(!) will come in handy   

You would think it would just pull off. I cant feel anything holding it on. The problem is I am trying to take the combing pad off to take to the upholstery shop.

So I need to get it off, the guy already finished the passenger side and is waiting on the drivers side. It has been on there for 23 years, so it is probably just stuck real good.

Anyone else have any ideas?

thanks

Jason,

Dont hit it harder. I attempted to get mine off a couple years ago with no luck. Reach up under the gunnel and feel for some nuts. Mine had a couple that i got removed but i still couldnt get the control to break away cleanly. I concluded that the cable affixed in a way that also somehow tied the unit together. with such limited working room and zero vision i eventually gave up. I intended to get the mounting instuctions from somewhere so i could at least see how the instructions illustrated the mount. I'll search again and if i find some i'll foward. would you be kind enough top do the same?

thanks and good luck.

Jerry
