Trim pivot and trim levers:
Align and fit the trim pivot bushes
Pilot holes for the
pivot bushes
are pre-drilled in the console. Start by enlarging the holes for
the
pivot bushes
slightly with a round file until the
pivot bushes
can be fitted snugly and the
file sits level through the holes and square to the console when viewed from above.
Screw the left-hand
pivot bush
firmly into the
pivot barrel
.
Push the pivot barrel through the console and flock into place
then loosely fit the right-hand side pivot bush. Line up the
left-hand side rivet holes and secure the left-hand side
pivot
bush
with three TLR rivets as shown at left.
Push the
pivot shaft
through the
pivot bushes
and temporarily
fit the
trim levers
, including the
friction washers
, and tighten
the castellated nut onto the pivot bolt by hand until the
trim
levers
are held securely onto the
pivot shaft
.
Move the
trim levers
fore and aft: both
trim levers
should maintain an even distance out from
the console. If this is not the case the hole for the right-hand
pivot bush
may need to be
elongated slightly to correct the alignment. Note that if the right-hand hole has been elongated
you will need to rotate the right-hand
pivot bush
1/6 of a turn and drill three new rivet holes
for that side only.
Once the
trim levers
can move freely fore and aft while maintaining an even distance out from
the console, flock and tighten the right-hand
pivot bush
firmly into place and secure with three
TLR rivets, fitted one at a time and rechecking the
trim levers
alignment after each rivet has
been placed.
Smooth any surplus flock with a small amount of resin on a clean mixing stick.
