Maintenance Instructions
Maintenance inspection is owner’s responsibility and
must be performed at intervals specified, following:
Normal Service – Every 50 hrs. of operation or 60
days (whichever comes first)
*Severe Service– Every 25 hrs. of operation or 30
days (whichever comes first)
* Operation in a salt water area is considered “Severe Service.”
1. Carefully check steering system components for
wear. Replace worn parts.
2. Check steering system fasteners to be sure that
they are torqued to correct specifications.
Ride-Guide steering cables are lubricated at the fac-
tory and require no additional lubrication at initial
installation.
WARNING
Core of each steering cable (transom end) must
be fully retracted into cable housing before lubri-
cating cable. If cable is lubricated while ex-
tended, hydraulic lock of cable could occur.
3. With core of Ride-Guide steering cable (transom
end) fully retracted, lubricate transom end of
steering cables thru grease fittings with 2-4-C w/
Teflon. Lubricate exposed portion of cable ends
with 2-4-C w/Teflon.
4. Lubricate pivot point of steering link rod and ball
joint of link rod/steering coupler with 2-4-C
w/Teflon.
5. Inspection and lubrication of steering head
assembly (rotary or straight rack) should be
performed once each year (by your Authorized
Dealer) or whenever steering mount and/or
steering head are disassembled, or if steering
effort has increased. Lubricate with 2-4-C
w/Teflon.

Remote Control Installation
Refer to “Quicksilver Accessories Guide” to deter-
mine correct length of remote control cables.
IMPORTANT: Remote control cables must be cor-
rect length. Sharp bends on too-short cables re-
sult in “kinks;” too-long cables require unneces-
sary bends and/or loops. Both conditions place
extra stress on the cables.
IMPORTANT: Install control cables to remote
control and mount remote control BEFORE at-
taching control cables to engine. Refer to instal-
lation instructions included with remote control.
