When viewed from above (as shown in the illustration above):
• the sensor arm must be between 75 mm (3 in) and 310 mm (12 in) from the tiller arm
• with the rudder amidships, the sensor arm should be at 90° to the connecting rod and
directly opposite the cable entry point on the sensor body
• when the rudder moves from hardover to hardover:
• the sensor arm and the tiller arm must remain parallel to each other at all times
• sensor arm movement must not exceed +/- 60°: if the steering system drives the sen-
sor arm beyond these limits it will damage the rudder position sensor
