LOCATION
The RAM T0 Actuator is designed for under-deck installations only.
When considering where to mount the actuator the following points
should be taken into account.
: Keep cable runs short.
: Mount away from sources of heat.
: Install the actuator above areas liable to flooding.
: Use a solid surface, capable of supporting the large thrusts generated
by this unit.
: Ensure that piston movement is limited by the rudder hard stops and not
by the actuator end stops.
: Allow sufficient clearance for removal of the mounting pin.
: Check that no part of the actuator fouls the vessel or rudder quadrant
throughout its full range of movement.
: It may be mounted in any orientation providing the limits stated are not
exceeded.
