5.Use three 6 mm (1/4 in) diameter bolts, nuts and washers to attach the mounting ring to the backing plate (with the backing plate on the other side of the mounting surface, as shown above).

6.Screw the rod firmly into place.

7.Roughen the end of the cantilever rod and the inside of the cap to provide a key. Then apply two part epoxy adhesive to the rod end and the cap.

8.Place the cap over the rod end, making sure the hole for the tiller pilot mounting pin faces upwards. Allow the epoxy adhesive to harden fully before applying a load.

Note: When the tiller pilot is not in use, you can unscrew the complete rod assembly to leave the cockpit unobstructed.
