NOTICE! a) A compensating line is required between helm stations or the helm and autopilot power pack. b) All hoses should be routed with a gradual rise (particularly the com- pensating line) so that air will not be trapped in the lower helm station. c) The second helm station or autopilot power pack may be connected at any location between the upper helm station and the cylinder. For existing single station installations the nylon or copper tubing may be cut and the tee fittings installed at any convenient location.
