Installation
Fitting the Tillerpilot
The Tillerpilot is a very sophisticated piece of equipment and,
therefore, in order for it to function to its full capabilities, it is
essential that it is installed correctly. Please read this section
thoroughly before attempting installation and use.
The Tillerpilot
should be
horizontally level
when fitted to the
tiller.

¼ Note: The pilot is factory preset to be mounted on the starboard
side as shown, but this can be reconfigured for port-side mounting
(see “Porthand mounting” on page 10).
The dimensions should be adhered to as closely as possible.
¼ Note: If the dimensions given are not practical for the vessel to
which the Tillerpilot is to be fitted, a range of fitting accessories are
available to facilitate correct installation. (Please refer to “Spares &
accessories” on page 27 for more details.)
