Q

what is the purpose of the ram assembly

A

the ram unit is mounted athwartship and consists of a single ram operated by opposed cylinders, the ram is connected by links to the tillers of the twin rudders. When oil pressure is applied to one end of the operating cylinder, the ram will move, causing each rudder to move with it
