Mounting the pushrod extension
To mount the pushrod extension:
1. Unscrew the end of the tiller pilot’s pushrod.
2. Screw the extension into the pushrod.
3. Screw the pushrod end into the pushrod extension.
Tiller brackets
If the tiller is higher or lower than the mounting socket, you can use a Raymarine
tiller bracket to vary the tiller pin offset so the pilot is horizontal.
Identifying the correct tiller bracket
1. Clamp the tiller on the boat’s center line.
2. Measure dimension
D
(if the pushrod is above the tiller) or dimension
E
(if the
pushrod is below the tiller).
3. Select the appropriate bracket from the following table:
Dimension D
(pushrod below tiller)
Dimension E
(pushrod above tiller)
