2. Mounting the drive Mounting the drive involves four main steps: • securing the drive to the boat • connecting the drive to the steering system • ensuring correct sprocket alignment and chain tension • completing a steering check Securing the drive Mounting location Before you secure the drive to your boat, you must first check the suitability of the mounting location. - Page 11 • Environment: • This drive is not waterproof, so you should mount it in a dry location, clear of any bilge water. Mounting bolts Attach the mounting foot with two stainless steel M12 ( inch) bolts and lock nuts/lock washers. Before finally tightening the bolts you must check sprocket alignment (see page 14) and chain Note: tension (see page 15).
- Page 12 The sprocket sizes in Figure 3 provide good steering performance for most boats. If you think Note: your boat may have unusual steering characteristics, contact Raymarine’s Technical Services Call Center or an Authorized Service Representative for advice.

Page 13: Drive Sprocket
To stop the drive sprocket rotating on the drive shaft, the shaft has a inch square projection (a woodruff key) that fits into a notch (or keyway) at the centre of the sprocket. If you use a non-Raymarine drive sprocket, its bore and keyway dimensions must fall within the ranges specified in Figure 4 for it to lock correctly to the drive shaft. - Page 14 Steering sprocket Steering sprocket Drive sprocket Drive sprocket Side view End view D5085-1 Figure 5: Sprocket alignment Adjusting the chain tension Adjust the chain tension until it is just tight, so there is minimal lost motion between the drive sprocket and the rudder stock. If the chain tension is not set correctly, the resulting lost motion will impair steering performance.
- Page 15 D5086-1 Figure 6: Adjusting chain tension Steering check When you have tensioned the chain correctly, turn the steering wheel from hardover to hardover to check that the chain and sprockets move freely and are correctly aligned. WARNING Moving parts Keep clear of moving steering systems at all times. Protect moving parts from access during normal use.
