Boat Systems - Section B
Figure B5: Tilt Steering Wheel (Adjusting Tab)
The tilt mechanism should not be adjust ed
when the boat is moving. Sudden boat move-
ment may cause loss of control resulting in an
accident and/or injury.
The tilt mechanism is spring loaded. Due to the
variation in steering wheel offerings, the wheel
may spring up rapid ly when depressing the
release lever. ALWAYS KEEP ONE HAND ON
THE WHEEL DURING TILT ADJUSTMENT
OR INJURY MAY OCCUR.
NOTICE
DO NOT interfere with or restrict steering cable
movement through the last 90
o
of bend at the
engine. DO NOT use cable retainers, clamps or
tie straps. Using one or all of these could
restrict the cable movement near the engine.
DO NOT tie wiring harnesses or other control

C. Steering System Maintenance
1. Inspection
A periodic inspection of all steering cables, linkage
and helm assemblies should be made. Signs of cor-
rosion, cracking, loosening of fasten ings, excessive
wear, or deterioration should be imme di ately correct-
ed. Failure to do so could lead to steering system
failure and corresponding loss of control.

2. Steering System Maintenance
The helm and cable assembly should be so adjust ed
that the steering wheel is centered with the jet nozzle
in the straight ahead position. There should be an
equal number of turns to port and starboard from the
straight ahead position. If adjustment becomes
neces sary, see your Scarab dealer.
Check all metal parts at the cable output end for cor-
rosion. Remove any old grease from the cable ram
and motor swivel connections using a mild solvent
such as WD-40. Spray the cleaned areas with a
moisture-displacing lubri cant and apply a light coat of
good quality marine grease. Do this with the ram fully
extend ed.
3. Winter Storage
If the boat is placed in winter storage or used infre-
quently, clean the cable ram as instructed earlier.
Cycle the steering several times when applying
lubricant. If at any time the steering system becomes
stiff, has an excessive amount of free play or shows
any change in its operating characteristics, contact
your Scarab dealer to have the system inspected.
