Full Port & Starboard.
Tilt the motor down. Turn the motor hard over to port. That will retract the Cylinder rod into the Cylinder.
Check that the Cylinder rod is still free to retract at least a little more. Next turn the motor hard over to
starboard. That will extend the Cylinder rod out of the Cylinder. Check that the Cylinder rod is still free
to extend at least a little more. It should have additional travel in both directions. If it does not adjust the
position of the Rod Eye (item 31) on the Cylinder shaft. The Cylinder shaft should turn with your ngers if
the Hex Jam Nut (item 32) is loose. (If the shaft does not turn freely enough, use a thin 1/4 Inch open end
wrench at the shaft’s wrench ats.) Do not use any tool on the cylindrical part of the Cylinder shaft.
If the shaft gets scratched, bent, or damaged the seal will fail. With the cylinder properly adjusted, secure
it by tightening the Hex Jam Nut against the Rod Eye. It is ready for plumbing. We suggest you put the
original parts in a container and, carefully, store them. (You may eventually want to sell or trade in your
motor, but we know you will want to keep your TR-1 autopilot.)
