3ABOUT THE STACKED LONG HANDLE FFU LEVER
The Kobelt 7195 Stacked Long Handle FFU Lever is used as an input to Full Follow Up (FFU)
electronic steering systems. The operator can maneuver the vessel by moving the lever port
or starboard to adjust its internal potentiometer. The Stacked FFU Lever Controller can be
used for steering applications, other marine applications, or industrial installations.
The 7195 is available with one or two potentiometers per handle and each handle includes a
friction tensioning device. The top handle (usually for the flanking rudder system) is equipped
with a center detent. The standard handle length is 16” (18” from center of hub). The 7195 is
designed for indoor and outdoor installation with a robust die cast bronze and stainless-steel
construction to provide a long service life in a harsh marine environment.
The 7195 is available in black or chrome surface finishes to suit your appearance preferences.

5COMMISSIONING
5.1 ELECTRICAL CHECK
Ensure that the rear cover is installed and secured before powering
on the 7195.
•Confirm that the electrical connections to the 7195 have been made.
5.2 FUNCTIONAL TEST
The Functional Test should be carried out while the vessel is still at
dock and before it is taken out to sea after installation has been
completed.
A complete functional test should be performed on the system that the Stacked Long Handle
FFU Lever has been installed within before entering operational use.

6OPERATION
The standard configuration of the Kobelt 7195 Stacked Long Handle FFU Lever contains a total
of two (2) potentiometers, one (1) for each lever. The -PP variant contains two (2)
potentiometers for each lever, for a total of four (4). Operating the Stacked Long Handle FFU
Lever allows the hydraulic steering gear to move in the desired direction. When the handle is
released, the FFU lever stays in that position, it does not spring back to centre.
This Stacked Long Handle FFU Lever provides Full Follow Up (FFU) control of the dual steering
gear systems commonly found on Push Boats. In common configurations, one steering gear
controls the steering rudders aft of the propellers while the other controls the flanking
rudders, forward of the propellers.
The Stacked Long Handle FFU Lever can be operated either Port and Starboard, or Left and
Right, to command motion in the system it is controlling. The range of the Stacked FFU Lever
during operation is shown below. Range of movement is identical for top and bottom
handles.
Figure 4: 7195 Top and Bottom Handle Positions of Operation, LEFT - CENTRE –RIGHT
Ensure that the FFU lever is set to within a few degrees of the
current rudder angle before switching into FFU mode.
