cylinder is connected to the tiller tie rod. Extending and
retracting the cylinder moves the rudders, enabling you
to steer the boat. With hydraulic steering, the effort
needed to turn the helm remains the same regardless of
the boat’s speed.
For the hydraulic steering system to operate properly, it
must have an adequate source of hydraulic fluid and
sufficient pressure within the hydraulic pump and lines.
Refer to the OEM information for details on operating
and maintaining the steering system.
Follow the steps provided below to help ensure that
your boat is prepared for a safe cruise.
Your boat’s fuel tanks are designed to take on fuel at a
maximum rate of 9 gallons per minute (GPM) when the
tank is between 25% and 75% full. During this time the
pressure inside the tank must not exceed 4 psi.
When fueling tanks that are either completely empty or
nearly full, decrease the fueling rate. This helps prevent
the tanks from fuel surge and rupture when they are
empty, and from backing up and spilling fuel when they
are full. Be aware that many marine fuel pumps can
deliver fuel at rates up to 35 GPM. This high fueling
rate should never be used with your boat; it could
damage your fuel system.
Before Fueling
NOTE: Refer to the engine OEM information for the type
of fuel and octane rating recommended for your boat's
engines.
1. Make sure that the boat is securely moored.
2. Close all ports, windows, hatches and doors.
3. Turn "OFF" all fans, motors and any other devices
that could create a spark, including the stove, oven,
and generator.
4. Extinguish all open flames and smoking material,
such as cigarettes, on the boat and in the area
around the fuel dock.
