3.8 Autopilot connection detail

NOTE
Installation and operation can be simplified with the purchase of a SeaStar
Autopilot pump and adapter kit HA1205. Contact Dometic to ensure this
will work with your autopilot controller.
When adding an autopilot to the system:
Connect the A/P pump output to the steering lines between the
power assist pump and the steering cylinder(s) as shown in figure 3-9.
Connect the A/P pump's reservoir port to the compensating line
between the helm pump and the power assist as shown.
Purge the autopilot reservoir at the same time as the power assist reservoir.
Run the autopilot pump in both directions during the purging process
(see section 4 for more information).
