Instructions / Assembly
It is possible to over trim the engine and increase the steering torque
to the point that the steering wheel cannot be turned, even though
the torque is not felt at the wheel. This may give the impression that
the steering is “locked”. This condition can occur more when jack
plates are used to raise the engine on the transom, and can only
be overcome by reducing the boat speed or engine trim out position.
Until you are completely familiar with the boat and the effects of
power trim, make all adjustments of trim with extreme caution.
Loosening or loss of one or more fasteners may cause failure of
the steering system, resulting in loss of steering control
and could cause property damage, injury, or death.
DO NOT cover cracks with tape or other sealants, this will create
a hazard in which the cable can fail suddenly without warning,
resulting in property damage, injury, or death.
DANGER
DANGER
1. After a few hours of operation and at frequent intervals thereafter,
check all fasteners and the complete steering system for security and
integrity.
2. Keep all moving parts free from build-up of salt and other foreign
material. This will affect their operation and create steering problems.
Periodically remove the cable, clean support tube and telescopic end of
cable thoroughly and lubricate with a waterproof marine grease.
3. Periodically inspect for corrosion. Any parts affected by corrosion
must be replaced. When replacing hardware, self-locking hardware as
originally supplied must be used.
4. Periodically inspect steering cable for cracks or other damage.
If any is found the cable must be replaced.
5. If cable is stiff in operation, it is unsafe to use and must be replaced
immediately.
