Steering System
The steering system requires checking each time that the
boat is taken out on the water

correctly and smoothly prior to each trip out on the

operate your boat if you suspect a steering system

system is not functioning correctly. Only a qualified
technician should adjust steering systems Ensure that
the steering system is lubricated at the beginning of
the boating season and properly winterized at the end
of the season
FUEL SYSTEM
When filling the gas tank care should be taken not to
spill fuel onto the paint of your boat Any fuel that may
be spilled on the paint should be immediately wiped off
Keep tanks approximately 7/8” full during boating season
to avoid condensation and fuel expansion. You may wish
to have a fuel separator installed to prevent water from
entering the engine(s)
If the fuel tank needs to be cleaned or water is found in
the fuel system, refer the boat to an authorized Kingfisher
dealer
For recommended fuel please refer to your Engine

The fuel sending unit is a mechanical device that is
located in the fuel tank It sends a signal to the fuel gauge

the fuel gauge as your only means of determining fuel levels.

hoses, fittings, and the tank for leaks. If no leaks are found,
carry on with your pre-operation inspection
