Procedure
- 0.79").
- d=16.5 mm (0.65") above boat bottom
- Transom Aquamatic
- 25
- Twin engine installation
- Centerline spacing
- NOTE! The minimum engine centerline distance
- for twin engine installation determines the transom
- shield centerline and engine spacing. The centerline
- distances for D4 and D6 engines are min. 950 mm
- (38").
- 10. Use a carpenter’s square to mark the transom.
- Place a mark at (A), the selected engine centerline
- distance to port of the transom centerline. Place a
- second mark (B) at the selected engine centerline
- distance to starboard of the transom centerline.
- 11. Make similar measurements from the transom
- centerline near the bottom of the boat to locate the
- bottom points.
- 12. Use a carpenter’s square or straight edge to
- connect both port and starboard transom shield cen-
- terline marks. Check the distance at both top and
- bottom to ensure the transom shield centerlines are
- equidistant from the transom centerline used as a
- reference.
- X-measurement
- 13. Determine the X measurement from the table
- on the following page and mark the heights from the
- boat bottom to the crankshafts center, the X mea-
- surement.

- 1. Align fixture 3863258 against the transom. The "V"
- notches must coincide with the centerline and the
- horizontal line at four points.
- NOTE! The "UP" marking on the drill fixture.
- Using the drill fixture,
- special tool 3863258
- 2. Temporarily attach the drill fixture with two self tap-
- ping screws Ø 6 mm (1/4") (A).
- Drill all six holes Ø 14 mm (9/16").
- NOTE! Drill perpendicularly to the transom.
- 3. Mark off the transom shield hole on the transom
- with a pencil.
- NOTE! No marking around the attaching screws.
- 4. Cut out the hole using a jig saw. Make sure you
- hold the saw at an angle of 90° against the transom.

- Using the paper template
- 1. Attach the template to the transom so that the ver-
- tical and horizontal lines through crankshaft center
- (CL) on the template and the transom coincide.
- 2. Use a 6 mm (1/4") drill and mark up the six holes
- by drilling to a depth of approx. 5 mm (0.2").
- ∅6 mm
- (1/4")
- 3. Drill the six holes 14 mm (9/16") for the transom
- shield bolts.
- NOTE! Make sure you drill at absolutely right angles
- to the transom. Also make sure you locate the holes
- in their exact positions. Failure to do so will make it
- extremely difficult to fit the transom shield. Use of
- a portalign drill giude to ensure that the holes are
- drilled at right angels to the transom through the tran-
- som.
- CL
- 4. Cut out the transom shield hole in the paper tem-
- plate. Use a pencil and mark off the transom shield
- hole on the transom. Drill a hole in any of the corners,
- big enough to allow a jig saw to enter.
- Remove the template.
- 5. Use a jig saw and cut out the hole. Make sure that
- you hold the saw at right angles to the transom.

- Installing the transom shield
- 1. Pass the trim pump, the hydraulic steering hoses,
- the shift cable protection hose and the water inlet
- hose through the transom cutout.
- NOTE! The hoses shall always be placed on the
- starboard side.
- 2. Align the transom studs with the holes in the tran-
- som and press the transom shield flush against the
- transom.

- 6. Chamfer the inside of the transom as per figure, for
- water to drain out.
- 7. Paint or coat all cut surfaces with top coat paint.
- Note! In a DPH twin installation, the starboard TSK
- have the steering cylinder on the starboard side and
- the port TSK have the steering cylinder on the port
- side, see figure below.
- In a DPR twin installation, the starboard TSK and
- port TSK have steering cylinders on both sides.
- 1. Steering cylinders
- 2. Shields
- 3. Valve block

- 4. Install the trim pump on the transom or on a bulk-
- head. Make sure it is easily accessible for oil filling
- and service, and well clear of any possible bilge wa-
- ter.
- IMPORTANT! The trim pump must be installed
- vertically. Please refer to the picture above.
- 5. Insert the shift cable through the protective hose
- and out through the transom shield. Apply some oil
- on the cable for easier installation.
- 6. Clamp the hoses to the shifting cable and the ac-
- cessory hose (autopilot/rudder indicator).
- Clamp the hydraulic hoses to the trim pump.
- IMPORTANT! The ends of the hoses must al-
- ways be clamped and must be well above the
- maximum waterline, to prevent water from en-
- tering into the boat.
- 7. Bend up the shift cable and clamp it to the inside of
- the transom.
- NOTE! Minimum bending radius for the cable:
- 200 mm (8").
- If the radius is smaller, the control will be stiff to oper-
- ate and there is a risk that it will lock up.
- 3. With the transom shield in place, install the six
- rectangular washers on the studs and then the nuts.
- Tighten the nuts evenly.
- Tightening torque: 80 Nm (57.8 lbf.ft).

- 3. Install the washer (1) and the shift cable with clamp
- (2) and screws along the underside of the gear shift
- actuator.
- NOTE! It is possible to install the control cable on ei-
- ther side of the gear shift actuator. This is to facilitate
- installation of the gear shift actuator in the boat. Pin
- must however always be installed downwards.
- Installing gear shift actuator
- and gear shift cable
- 1. Install the actuator in a position such that the gear
- shift cable (push-pull cable) can be installed and
- clamped correctly.
- NOTE! Minimum bending radius for the cable: 200
- mm (8").
- 2. Install the actuator using four suitable screws.
- NOTE! The shift cable pin (1) must always point
- downwards. Adjust its position and cover the upper
- slot with the self adhesive protective sticker (2).
