Hydraulic Steering
Maintenance of the steering system varies with usage and climate and
should be inspected by a qualified marine mechanic at least twice a year or
at the first sign the steering system is not operating normally.
To check the oil level, remove the steering fluid fill cap. The oil level should
be within 1/2 inch of the bottom of the filler hole. Refer to the manufacturer’s
literature for more information on maintenance.
