To complete the system installation for a Yanmar BY2/BY3 EST engine
with XT sterndrive you need to:
1. Install the Optimus control head (section 8.1)
2. Complete the CAN network connections (section 8.2)
3. Set up the control head using Datalink (section 8.3)

8.1 Installing the Control Head

Install the control head on the dash in a location that allows
convenient and unobstructed access. Whenever possible, mount
the control head in a location that will minimize water spray.
Ensure that the control levers can be moved throughout their
complete range of motion in both forward and reverse without
interference. ABYC standard P-14 calls for a minimum of 2 1/2"
(64 mm) clearance between the control lever and the steering
wheel rim under all possible lever and wheel positions.
A dash cutout template is provided in Appendix A.
8.1.1

control head trim Switch connection

The control head includes a single trim/tilt switch on the end of the
port handle. This switch can be wired to provide synchronous trim/
tilt control of all engines. If independent trim/tilt is desired use tilt/
trim kit HA5491 (for twin engine configurations) and connect the
wiring as shown in figure 8-1.
