ABSTRACT:
A control cable conduit length adjustment device comprising an outer detent member connected to a conduit, an inner adjuster member extending into the detent member, the adjuster member having opposed sets of ratcheting teeth and the detent member having opposed detent pawls with teeth engaging the teeth on the adjuster member. The teeth on the adjuster member are offset longitudinally so that a smaller increment of adjustment is provided. A control cable extends through the conduit and the detent and adjuster members. Resetting of the device is achieved by rotating the detent member relative to the adjuster member to disengage the teeth on the pawls and adjuster member so that the members can be moved longitudinally relative to one another.
