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.
