2. Loosen the cord grip nut so that it can slide over the harness. Feed
the harness through the hole in the transom until the bulkhead plate
contacts it. Fasten the bulkhead plate to the transom using three
screws (not supplied).
3. Adjust the amount of harness pulled through the bulkhead until there is
enough slack for the actuator to move through its full stroke, as well as
trim and tilt, without restriction or interference. Ensure the harness
bend radius is not less than 3.5” (90mm) at any point in the actuator’s
steering range, or in the trim/tilt range. You should end up with a nice
loop from bulkhead fitting to the actuator as shown in figure 5-8.
4. Tighten the strain relief gland by hand, just tight enough to compress
the grommet slightly and secure the harness. Excessive torque may
cause damage to the harness.
