Mount the Shadow Drive horizontally and as level as possible.

Install the Shadow Drive in either the port or the starboard hydraulic steering line.

Always install a length of hose between the helm and the Shadow Drive.

Do not install the Shadow Drive directly to the helm.

Do not install the Shadow Drive between the Power Assist module and the pump.
