Helm Control Transfer
To switch control from the main helm to the exterior helm, pull out and rotate the handle clockwise
90 degrees until it locks into position. You will now have control of the engine at the exterior helm. To
return control back to the main helm, pull out and rotate the handle counter-clockwise 90 degrees
until it locks into position.
The steering system is independent of the helm selector switch and will operate at all times. DO NOT
TURN THE STEERING WHEEL AT THE HELM THAT DOES NOT HAVE FULL CONTROL OF THE BOAT!
Hydraulic Steering
The exterior helm comes with an additional steering helm, steering wheel, and steering hoses that
connects to the base steering system. The operation of the system is similar, where when you turn the
steering wheel, the helm pump forces hydraulic fluid through hoses to and from the steering cylinder
which is connected to the tiller arm. Even though the helms are connected, the steering wheels will
not rotate together when one wheel is turned.
