6.With the up and down control lines loose, pull on them and re- move them from the hull with the tubes. If they get hung up inside the hull, you can cut whatever is preventing you from taking out the lines. You will no longer need these lines and tubes with this

kit.

7.With the old tubes and lines removed, install the new tubes with lines that are in this kit into the holes that you just removed the old tubes from. Getting the end fittings into the holes will be a tight squeeze, so you may need a small hammer to tap them into the holes so that they are fully installed. IMPORTANT: When these lines are installed, the right line will be for the DOWN control

and the left line will be for the UP control.

8.Use a socket or a wrench and unthread the bolt that passes through the center of the rud- der housing. This will allow the rudder to come apart.

9.Feed the DOWN control line through the two holes that are just above the rudder pin. When installed, the line will come on the inside of the rudder housing.

10. Feed the DOWN control line into the upper hole on the rudder

part of the assembly and tie a knot in the end of the line to keep it Upper Hole from pulling through.
