5. At the helm, determine where the tactile switch will be installed, locate the template on the PDF (downloadable) and secure to helm, cut a circular opening using a 2" (5.08 cm) hole saw. Before cutting, make sure the area inside the helm is clear of wires and other equipment that could be damaged. Using the template on page 35, drill four 3/16" (.48 cm) holes through the helm.

Secure the switch with the nylon nuts provided. When mounting the black control box, keep in mind that there is a 30" (76.2cm) lead that attaches to the back of the tactile switch. Make sure control box is mounted on a vertical surface with wires facing down toward the deck.

6. Following the trim tab switch wiring diagram, connect the actuators or the actuator extension cables to the switch control box. Be very careful of sharp edges that may damage the cable. Remember the left switch controls the right starboard tab and the right switch controls the left port tab.

Please Follow The Instructions And Drawings Carefully.
