REPLACEMENT OF ACTUATOR

Retract tabs completely to relieve pressure. Inside transom, detach tubing from elbow, then unscrew elbow

from pipe nipple. Remove pipe nipple.
Remove actuator from transom and put pipe nipple into new actuator dry. Do not over tighten. Two to three

turns past hand tight is adequate. Do not use Teflon tape.
Apply waterproof sealant on mounting surface and around nipple of new actuator. Insert through transom,

keeping dirt out of the nipple, and secure actuator upper mount to transom with #14 x ½" screws.

(Note: Covering ends of nipples with masking tape will assure no dirt will enter nipple.)
Inside the transom, tighten the 90° elbow while holding nipples with channel locks. Use pipe compound or

sealant on male threads only. Reattach nut w/ferrule. Do not over tighten.
Run tab up and down 2-3 times to purge air out of system. No bleeding is necessary.
