Aligning teleflex safety QC helm
Trying to align my steering wheel on a Safety -QC helm.
I have the directions but the way I mount my helm is different from the instructions. The direction for the initial position of the steering wheel in a normal helm installation on a starboard mounted wheel with the cable spigots facing the starboard and the cable is fed in through the bottom spigotis to have the bottom spoke of the steering wheel in the 2:00 position. My setup is as follows: Helm mounted on the port side. Using a helm converter such that the cable is fed in through the bottom spigot now which was originally the exit hole for the excess cable as it is fed through the helm The question I have is what orientation should the wheel be in? Teleflex told me 10:00. I've tried this and after feeding the cable in and setting up my outdrive such that it is centered when the wheel is centered I am left with 1 turn of the wheel to the right until it hits the wheel stop and almost 2 turns to the left before it hits the wheel stop. Thanks, |
