Section 4
The helm transfers rotary motion of the steering wheel to linear
motion in the cable which pushes or pulls the rudder. Nautique
rudders are equipped with an adjustable trim tab under license
from Z-Marine (U.S. patent 5,746,147) to compensate for the
torque generated by the propeller.
Maintenance for the steering system is minimal because there are
few serviceable parts. The rack and pinion for the system is
lubricated and sealed during manufacturing. It is the responsibility
of the owner/operator to inspect the steering system frequently.
If you experience difficulty in steering, refer to Section 8 - Care and
Maintenance.
Hydro-Gate™ Control and
SportShift™
The Hydro-Gate is engaged by moving the SportShift lever located
at the helm’s starboard side fore and disengaged by moving the
lever aft. When the SportShift lever is pushed forward, the Hydro-
Gate is engaged, creating maximum lift for a wake with a well-
defined crest and shallower ramp. When the SportShift lever is
pushed aft, the Hydro-Gate is disengaged (raised), allowing your
boat to sit deeper in the water, creating the maximum wake with a
steep ramp. The SportShift lever can be placed in any position to
create your ultimate wake. When used in conjunction with the
Launch Control System, the SportShift and the Hydro-Gate can be
used to create a wide variety of wakes to meet your style and need.
The SportShift and Hydro-Gate can be used at any speed or at rest.
Hazard from improper maintenance of the
controls can cause death or serious injury from sudden
loss of control. DO NOT operate your boat if you
suspect the steering system or control are
malfunctioning.
