2.10 Control Systems Maintenance
CONTROL MAINTENANCE
Periodic inspection of the control systems and all connections should be made. Signs of rust, corrosion, wear,
or other deterioration should immediately be serviced. Generally, periodic lubrication of all moving parts and
connections with a light waterproof grease is in order.
Control system adjustments may become necessary. If adjustments become necessary, see your Pursuit dealer.
INSPECT AND MAINTAIN THE STEERING SYSTEM REGULARLY. DO NOT ATTEMPT
CONTROL ADJUSTMENTS UNLESS YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH SERVICING CONTROL
SYSTEM PROCEDURES. CONTROL MISADJUSTMENT CAN CAUSE LOSS OF CONTROL
AND SEVERE ENGINE OR LOWER UNIT DAMAGE.
STEERING SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
A periodic inspection of all steering hoses, linkage and helm assemblies should be made. Signs of corrosion,
cracking, loosening of fastenings, excessive wear or deterioration should be immediately corrected. The fluid
level for the hydraulic steering should be checked frequently and maintained at the proper level. Generally,
periodic lubrication of all moving parts and connections with a light waterproof grease is in order. Failure
to do so could lead to steering system failure that would result in loss of control.
When new, or after repairs, hydraulic steering systems may need to have all air purged from the system.
Review the information provided by the steering manufacturer for proper specifications and details on system
service and maintenance.
FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS IN THE OWNER'S INFORMATION PACKET FOR HYDRAULIC
STEERING SYSTEM OPERATING, BLEEDING PROCEDURES AND MAINTENANCE PRO-
CEDURES.
TRIM TAB MAINTENANCE
Marine growth can interfere with the proper operation of the trim tab planes and actuators. To reduce problems
due to marine growth, always return the trim tabs to the full “UP” position after operating the boat and
periodically inspect and clean marine growth from the actuators and planes.
The trim tabs are equipped with a zinc anode to prevent galvanic corrosion. Galvanic corrosion is the corrosion
process occurring when different metals are submerged in an electrolyte. Sea water is an electrolyte and
submerged metal components must be properly protected. The anodes were installed at the factory and will
need to be changed when they are 75% of their original size.
Refer to the Routine Maintenance chapter of this manual for information on maintaining zinc anodes and the
trim tab owner’s manual for additional maintenance information, fluid specifications and operating
instructions.
