includes any engine hoses that may have a passing contact with the

Mounting in a Restricted Area
If an obstruction prevents installation of the drive unit as supplied, the
main body can be rotated relative to the mounting bracket as follows:
1. Remove the two fixing screws and carefully slide the cover
forwards, ensuring that the four cables do not pull away from the
plugs inside the cover.
2. Loosen off the lock nut and rotate the main body as required.
3. Re tighten the lock nut securely, making sure that the lock nut is
no more than one turn from the start of the thread.
4. Replace the cover taking care not to crimp any cables.
5. Using the steering wheel, move from hard over to hard over and
check that no part of the drive unit contacts any part of the vessel/
fittings.
