Connecting the sensor to a tie-bar
Before fitting the sensor to a tie-bar, consider these points:
•
Not all installations will allow you to mount the rudder position
sensor between the drive apertures. In this case, mount the sensor
to a steering arm.
•
You may need to mount the sensor on a fabricated base (as shown
on the illustration) if the distance between the transom and the
center of the tie bar is greater than 65 mm (2.5 in).
Mounting the sensor
1. Attach the sensor to the transom (or mounting base) at 90° to the
tie-bar (as shown below).
Note: Make sure the sensor steering pin is level with center of the
tie-bar. If there are existing holes in the tie-bar, position the
transducer within 75-310 mm (3.0-12.2 in) so you can use the
threaded steering pin
2. Position the steering amidships.
3. Measure 75 mm (3 in) to 310 mm (12.2 in) along the tie-bar from
the center of the sensor steering pin.
4. Mark the tie-bar at this point.
