6. Lower the I/O drive into the main support bracket (see Figure 13),
making sure that:
•
the fixed and spring-loaded pins locate in the corresponding
holes in the I/O drive’s girdle tube
•
the I/O drive’s pushrod is parallel with the power steering ram
CAUTION:
The fixed and spring-loaded location pins must be fully engaged
in the I/O drive girdle tube. If they are not the autopilot will fail.
7. Complete a hardover to hardover check:
•
Slowly turn the steering system from hardover to hardover.
•
Make sure that the drive unit and adaptor pin bracket do not
come into contact with any part of the engine, boat or steering
system.This includes any engine hoses that may have a
passing contact with the I/O drive unit.
Note: If necessary, you can rotate the main body of the drive unit
relative to the girdle tube (see below).
