Caution! To avoid the possibility of contaminants entering the Linear RFU, it is
advisable to do an occasional wipe-down of the sliding rod, while it is fully
extended, with a clean rag.
If you trailer your boat, it is especially important to do this on a regular basis. A
good time to clean the rod is during the on-shore preparation for every launch,
since that will take care of any “road grime” picked up during the trip to the
launching ramp.
Electrical Connection
The Linear RFU is normally supplied with approximately 9.5 metres (30’) of cable. Run the
cable from the Linear RFU towards the SPU, ensuring that a hose or conduit protects it
wherever it passes through bulkheads, holds, or any other area where it could be damaged.
If the length of cable supplied is too short to reach all the way to the SPU, obtain a terminal
strip and sufficient additional cable from your ComNav Dealer. Mount the terminal strip in a
convenient DRY location where it will not be subjected to moisture of any kind.
See Rudder Follower Unit on page 70 for further details on connecting the cable to the
SPU.
