Fuel Gauge
A sending unit is installed in each fuel tank which senses the fuel level in the tank and displays the quantity
on the fuel gauge located, on the instrument panel. The gauge may vary in appearance and be clustered
with other indicators, such as oil and battery readings. However it is clearly labeled.
Figure 3-13
illustrates
a typical cluster configuration.
The fuel indication is not 100% accurate so fuel planning is highly recommended. Maintain a reserve fuel
supply when planning a trip.
Steering Systems
Steering is provided by the propeller/sterndrive assembly itself eliminating the need of a rudder. A power
steering system is used to make operating the boat easier.
A steering system owner’s manual is delivered as part of the documentation package you receive when you
take possession of your boat. It is your responsibility to become familiar with the contents of the manual
and how the system operates, as only rudimentary information is repeated here.
A hydraulic pump, with built-in reservoir, is mounted on the engine and provides power steering for the
boat. Turning the wheel pumps hydraulic fluid to the steering cylinder, which is attached to the sterndrive
assembly. This fluid moves a hydraulic cylinder, which in turn moves the sterndrive in the desired direc-
tion.
As part of the regular maintenance cycle, ensure the power steering reservoir contains the proper amount
of fluid. Verify with your dealer the type of steering/hydraulic fluid your boat uses. Use only the recom-
mended brand and type of fluid recommended for your boat.
