The 6505 Electronic Control Head was recently developed to accommodate customers who have limited space on their control consoles. The 6505 is compact, yet it offers all the features and accuracy of our bigger models.
SCHOTTEL Steering and Control Systems (SST) are tailored to each individual application. The spectrum extends from simple manually operated mechanical steering wheels on the propulsion unit itself to computer-aided, remote-controlled joystick systems.
It is no longer possible to imagine this sector without microelectronics, which considerably enhances the operational reliability. With our systems, we are in a position to give every shipmaster the optimum “tool” for operating, manoeuvring and positioning his vessel safely and easily.
Our Side Mount and Binnacle Mount control boxes are designed to provide remote throttle & shift control for Tohatsu outboards. Side Mount control boxes come standard with all Tohatsu remote control models. Binnacle Mount (top mount) control boxes are available for console mounting.

The model 7171 is manufactured in all bronze and stainless steel, and is suited for installation anywhere on the ship. Its watertight construction will not allow seaspray to enter the unit.
This device is a full follow-up rudder control. It is equipped with a detent in mid handle position; the straight ahead position. Moving the control to either port or starboard will cause the rudder to follow proportionately. In order to complete a system of this nature, a feedback device connected with a link to the rudder stock, such as our Model 7174, and an electronic interface will then give the operator complete control over the rudder. This is possible at all times since the control and the 7171 correspond with the rudder position.
This control is available with three different handles; standard, handles with plastic grips or curved handles with knobs. An optional clutch and throttle interlock can be ordered with this unit
Steering levers come in two basic variations: the "jog" lever (JO100) and the "full follow-up" lever (LC100 FFU). The advantage of using "full follow-up" levers is that the handle will always reflect the vessels accurate
rudder position. When used with an autopilot or amplifier movement of the handle to port or starboard sends an electronic signal to the directional valve on the hydraulic power unit.
