INSTALLATION AND PREDELIVERY
OUTBOARD INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT:
Install steering cable through tilt
tube
before
mounting outboard on transom.
Tighten nut securely.
Manual Hydraulic Steering
Manual hydraulic steering systems use hydraulic
fluid to transfer motion and load from the helm to
the outboard. Hydraulic steering systems offer
certain design advantages that can be beneficial
in some applications.
Use only a hydraulic steering system designed for
the specific application. Refer to the steering sys-
tem manufacturer’s specifications for recom-
mended applications.
IMPORTANT:
Some hydraulic steering systems
require additional centerline spacing in dual-out-
board installations. Refer to steering system man-
ufacturer’s recommendations and to
Dual-
Outboard Centerlines
on p. 47.
Drag Links
Install cable wiper nut on tilt tube and connect
drag link to the correct location on the steering
arm. For single motor, single cable applications,
the drag link should be installed in the rear hole.
Use the correct drag link to allow full steering
travel:
WARNING
DO NOT use cable over pulley steering on
40 HP and larger outboards.
