WARNING
It is vital to ensure the autopilot servo and aircraft control linkage is free to move
throughout its entire range of travel without binding or interference. Failure to ensure
adequate clearance between the moving parts of the control system linkage and nearby
structure could result in serious injury or death. If any control system binding or
interference is detected during installation or preflight inspection, it must be corrected
before flight.
CAUTION
Do not mount the GSA 28 on the ‘hot’ side (engine side) of the firewall, or in any location
where it would be exposed to radiated heat from the engine.

these optional attachments will be used, it is up to the installer to remove the standard crank arm and
replace it with the optional attachment. When removing the standard arm, keep the castle nut, lock washer,
