Control Replacement Instructions
Warning
Older Sphinx controls are not compatible with current Apex control service parts. To determine if the RE592894
Hydrostatic Control Service Kit is needed or if control components can be serviced on an individual basis,
the diameter of the feedback cam guide(#3) needs to be measured . If largest diameter is ~35 mm, the full
RE592894 kit needs to be purchased if any 1 of the following 4 parts need to be replaced:
• Control Housing (#1)
• Feedback Cam Guide (#3)
• Guide Spring [retainer] (#4)
• Spring (#5)
If the feedback cam guide is ~Ø30 mm, parts may be serviced on an individual basis.
