Cruising applications only; for single engine outboard (150hp and below)
vessels less than 25’ long. For cylinder sizes up to 10 cubic inches (up to
165 cc) Not recommended for fishing or applications that require holding
heading while trolling at low speeds or operating in rough waters. For
applications that require precise heading control, our higher-performance
Reactor 40 models are recommended. Compact Reactor uses a gear pump design
with limited performance relative to similar flow piston pumps. Not
recommended for power assist installs, engines above 150 horsepower, or
boats with more than 12 degree deadrise. Mount pump within 6 feet of the
steering cylinder for best results |

KICKER ENGINE COMPATIBILITY
The Reactor 40 Kicker Autopilot is currently compatible with the following
engines.
NOTE: The outboard motors listed below are compatible only
if:
- The outboard has a tiller handle. Outboards without a
tiller handle may work with custom installation not supported by Garmin.
- The outboard has a tilt tube. Outboards without a
standard tilt tube are not compatible. Aftermarket “bolt-on” tilt tubes are
not supported (incorrectly positions steering actuator).

1 Consider replacing the mild steel tilt tubes supplied by Yamaha
and Honda with our stainless steel tilt tube (see accessories on Garmin.com).
Yamaha and Honda tilt tubes will be more susceptible to corrosion and require
more frequent cleaning and lube, especially when used in saltwater. Reactor 40
Kicker is designed for freshwater and saltwater use.
2 For the purposes of Reactor 40 Kicker installation, consider
Mercury and Tohatsu outboards to be the same.
