Hello Marek, The original compass on mine appeared to have been modified by the previous owner. It was held in place by screws on the upper part of the chrome collar holding the compass. There was screw covers need the bottom part of the collar that were not covering anything in my case, they could look a bit like rivet but are easy to pop out using a thin blade, you might find your screws there.
This spring, I installed a new compass and the attachment is now as Jonathan described (under the light cover of the compass). There is not much adjustment to be made that the pedestal end of the transmission cable on my boat. Below is a link of what I found when I first opened up the pedestal. In mine, I have two position to attach the transmission cable and it was already attached the the position with the most travel. My lever also hits the SS guard in forward position but I the transmission is solidly engaged at that point. https://www.dropbox.com/s/60uqvkuvcc3yvir/DSC_0019.jpg Hope this helps, Sébastien Lemieux Merlot X - C&C 30 mk2 1987 Lake Champlain On 2013-08-28, at 8:19 , Marek Dziedzic <dziedzi...@hotmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I bet that this topic has been discussed, but I would appreciate some hints. > > I have a problem with the transmission lever/cable - the transmission barely > engages (and sometimes does not), when I switch to forward - the lever hits > the binnacle.
