nal injury. Maintenance requirements change according to climate, frequency and the use. Inspections are
necessary at least every two years and must be carried out by specialized marine technicians.
Carry out the following maintenance operations:
- Periodically wash with water and soap the single cable removing any salt deposit.
- Every month check and if necessary tighten all the nuts fastening the system.
WARNING

in property damage, injury or death.
- Periodically check the absence of corrosion on the metal parts of the cable end fittings and of abrasions
on the conduit.
- Replace the damage parts that could compromise the steering system integrity.
