The manual only has two pages on the subject and points you to the blueprint saying that is has all the information needed. That sure seems to be a gross exaggeration. No parts numbers or identifications are given on the print or in the manual except for the nuts, bolts and washers. The pistons and the cylinders for the system are well beyond my ability to understand where they fit into the scheme drawn on this blueprint. Also, the blueprint which was done in 1994, describes an autopilot setup that apparently is no longer used. Have any of you had the same difficulty and if so how did you overcome the lack of data presented? Thanks, John Barrett 360 385 1000
