You can brake or even fix the steering wheel by turning a screw home. Make always sure that this brake is
not drawn especially when sailing with the auto pilot. This would mean an overload for the electric motor.
The socket of the steering gear is integrated into the deck’s form. On the socket there is the casing of the
wheel hub. A chain is laid over a tooth-wheel of the hub.
Attention
Remove timing gear while using the emergency tiller
Attention
Please ensure a suitable bearing lubrication of the necessary parts of the rudder
installation with water-proof lubricants (or Teflon).
Bearing clearance has to be avoided and can be adjusted at the top bearing.
The post must have no clearance but should not need heavy movements
.
