dimension ‘A’ should be 140mm (5.5in). However, changes within the
given limits will not degrade the autopilot performance, but will slightly

tiller pin is secured to the tiller arm using the self tapping screws
provided.
3. Cut the threaded rod to length and screw on the lock nuts ‘Y’and the
ball pin sockets - the sockets can then be pressed onto the pins. Move
the rudder from side to side to ensure the linkage is free from any
obstruction at all rudder angles.
