and push it up through the top.
NOTE: The shaft is keyed to fit in the steering servo housing
one way only.

The grommet is split on one side to make it easy to install on
the cable.
3
Push from the outside to secure the square grommet in the
shaft cap.
4
Route the transducer cable alongside the coil cable, using
the cable clamps to hold the cables together.
5
Route the transducer cable through the mount base
alongside the coil cable, using the cable clamps to secure the
cables to the base.
6
Route the transducer cable to the chartplotter, and connect it.
Connecting the Cables in the Shaft Cap
