The Tilt tube has a different thread.
The Cable Buddy and Lube II work on all outboard steering cables. They’ll fit all major U.S. and foreign motors (7/8" x 14 pitch threads) except Mercury motors.
No, the wind must be directed at the backside of the TurboMeter. This is the side opposite the digital readout.
Not all motors have a locking nut on the steering rod side of the tilt tube. You don't need a locking nut to install Lube II. However if you want one you can buy a stainless steel or aluminum nut fro…
The Queaz-Away Wristbands exert gentle pressure at points on each wrist to minimize or eliminate the miserable effects of travel. They are safe and easy to use. Simply slip on your wrists, position a…

Your WindTrak 15 should be balanced from the factory. If you think it is not we recommend you send it back to us for adjustment. If you would like to check it yourself you should do the following: si…
