RUDDER AND TILLER CROSS BAR INSTALLATION (Pre 1987 boats)
1.Disengage the tiller arm from the lower casting and lock the tiller arm and rudder in the kicked up position. This will pull the rudder blade up and out of the way so the rudder pin can be installed.
2.Hold the lower casting up to the transom of the boat and fit the casting over the gudgeons. Slide the rudder pin up through the casting and gudgeons with the hole in the rudder pin closest the bottom. Once the hole in the pin is above the casting at the lower gudgeon, stop and insert the cotter key which is packed with the rudder pins. Bend over the legs of the key to secure it in place. The rudder can be lowered now. See Figure 29 and 30.

3.To distinguish the port rudder from the starboard rudder, the port rudder arm will bend toward the center of the boat when on the port hull.
4.Attach the tiller cross bar to the tiller arm as shown in figure 31.
