This video has everything that I know and was able to glean about setting up your FT-991A for the CW mode. As I note in the video – while this video contains everything that I know, it certainly doesn’t contain everything there is to know. Don’t ask me how I know.

This video not only contains the high-level info, I’ve included descriptions of many of the function and menu settings – telling you what those settings actually do.
