On outboard boats these are always located just below the engine
cowling and are attached to the engine tiller arm. There will be one
SmartCylinder for each engine and they provide steering.
These are located in the hydraulic lines that go from the Hydraulic
Pumps to the SmartCylinders. There is one for each engine. These
are used for servicing and emergency operation.
3.8 SmartCylinders
3.9 Steering Service Valves
Wear a coast guard-approved personal flotation device (PFD) when
manually realigning engines.
The steering service valves permit the bypass of the EPS system
and allow the engines to be manually positioned. They should only
be used in the event of an EPS system failure. Instructions on how to
proceed will be supplied on the CANtrak display or in Section 10.2.
