The rudder hard over angle should only be limited by the rudder stops
and not the RRU linkage. Check that when hard over the RRU arm and
drag-link, do not form a straight line. If this occurs the steering system
could become damaged or jammed endangering the boat and crew.
Rectify this immediately by adjusting the position of the RRU.
LINEAR FEED BACK UNIT
Where installation of the conventional Rudder Reference unit is difficult
or physically impossible a Linear Feedback unit can be used. The

diameter and 324mm/ 12 3/4” long. This assembly is clamped to the
side of the Linear actuator using a special bracket kit. The Linear Feed
Back shaft is attached to the tiller bracket using the pin supplied with all
Blue rams.
This unit requires careful installation and alignment which should be
carried out by your dealer / supplier. For electrical connection see
