Cylinder & Bracket Installation Step One: Install U-bolt and Rod Eye Bracket. Install the Rod eye Bracket (item 2) by using the U-Bolt (item 16), split washers (item 14) and the nuts as seen in Figures 1 & 2. Use Loctite on threads to keep the nuts from vibrating loose. Figure 1 Note: Push the rod eye bracket up so it touches the diagonal gussets, and the U-bolt goes above the ridge. You may also cut the excess threads off with a hack saw if preferred.
Step Two: Install Standoffs and Channel Bracket. Remove the lower bolt on the shroud as shown in Figure 3 & 4. Using the bolts from the cylinder kit (items 17), push the bolt through the lock washer (item 14), through the channel (item 4) and through the standoff spacer (item 1) into the shroud (Use loctite on threads). Snug up the bolt, but don’t tighten, see Figure 5.
Remove the upper bolt from the shroud, See Figure 6. Install the second standoff spacer (item 1). Insert the bolt (item 17) through the lock washer (item 14) through the Channel (item 4) and finally through the standoff spacer and into the shroud as shown in Figure 6. (Use Loctite on threads.) Tighten both the upper and lower bolts securely, See Figure 7. Make sure the channel stays parallel as you tighten the bolts as shown in Figure 8.
Step Three: Install Snubber and Screw. Slip the snubber clip (item 5) behind the channel and up against the shroud as shown in Figure 9. Hold in place and start the #10 Pan head screw (item 20) through the front of the channel and through the split washer (item 21) and into the snubber clip, see Figure 10. (Use loctite on threads). Tighten the screw firmly.
Step Four: Cylinder Rod Eye Place the Rod Eye (item 31) over the vertical pin in the Rod Eye Mounting Bracket (item 2) as shown in Figure 12. (Leave the cylinder attached) Install the Medium Hair Pin Cotter (item 13) through the hole in the vertical pin. Turn the Cylinder (item 34) Fittings (item 35) up. Figure 12 Step Five: Stern Pivot Pin Slip the stern pivot pin (item 3) through the back of the channel.
Step Seven (Full Port & Starboard): Turn the motor hard over to port. That will retract the Cylinder rod into the Cylinder, see Figure 16. Check that the Cylinder rod is still free to retract at least a little more. Be sure that the cylinder is free to move by tugging on the hose fitting as in Figure 16 and move the cylinder a little ( it will rattle slightly when moved) Next turn the motor hard over to starboard, see Figure 17. That will extend the Cylinder rod out of the Cylinder.
