D - 5 POWER STEERING MAINTENANCE
Make a periodic inspection of all steering cables, link-
age and helm assemblies. Immediately correct signs of
corrosion, cracking, loosening
of fastenings, excessive
wear, or deterioration. Failure to
do so could lead to
steering system failure and loss of control.
Adjust the
helm and cable assembly so that the system
is centered with the rudders or outdrive in the straight
ahead position. The steering wheel should be able to be
rotated an equal number of turns to port and starboard
from the straight ahead position. If adjustment be-
comes necessary, see your Carver dealer.
All cables, helm assemblies, and steering connections
should be periodically lubricated with a light, waterproof
grease. See the manufacturers information provided
with this manual.
Hydraulic steering systems must have
all air purged
from system periodically. Some hydraulic steering
systems must be pressurized to achieve optimum
operation. These systems usually require 20-30 psi
pressure. Review the information provide(j
by the
hydraulic steering manufacturer for proper system
specifications and details regarding system service and
maintenance.
