Introduction
This manual comprises two major sections. The first section is a guide to installation of the “onboard” components of the autopilot system on your boat. The second section is a guide to adjusting and operating your system. Installation instructions for the throttle actuator and steering cylinder are motor specific and are provided in separate manuals.
Preparation
You will be hard mounting three autopilot components in your boat: 1) The Electrohydraulic Unit. 2) The Deckmount switch. 3) The Sensor ball. These components are shown in relation to each other and to the engine mounted components in the System Layout diagram on page 8. As indicated by this diagram, the Electrohydraulic unit and the Deckmount switch are to be located near the kicker and the Sensor ball is to be located FORWARD OF THE CENTER
OF YOUR BOAT
Spend some time to figure out where you are going to mount all of the components before you mount any of them. Place the components where you expect to mount them and verify you have access to and routes for the cables and hoses that connect the components.
ξMounting Screws
Mounting screws are provided for through and blind hole applications. You may choose to drill and tap the mounting surface.
