Gary, the control head is held from turning by the stator tube that
engages the extension of the control head going all the way to the
steering box where it is clamped by a compresion fitting. Watch the stator
tube that sticks out about an inch from the steering box and has the
control wires exiting. If it turns with the steering wheel, the
compression fitting is loose. If it remains stationary, the tube may be
broken.
The three grub screws clamp the rotating part of the control head to the
steering wheel to cancel at the straight ahead position.
