Planning

In order to make the installation as trouble free as possible, we strongly recommend you spend adequate time planning the best locations for your autopilot components. This is particularly important when considering the position of the autopilot pump, as hydraulic hoses are supplied in fixed lengths, so there are some limitations on the positioning of the autopilot pump with respect to the boat’s helm pump.

If you have internet access, please view the installation video on line at www.raymarine.com.

Before you disturb your hydraulic steering system, we strongly recommend that you consult the manufacturer and read the steering system manuals.
