Steering Link Rod Fasteners
IMPORTANT: The steering link rod that connects the steering cable to the engine must be fastened using special
washer head bolt ("a" - Part Number 10-849838) and self-locking nylon insert locknuts ("c" & "d" - Part Number
11-826709113). These locknuts must never be replaced with common nuts (non-locking) as they will work loose
and vibrate off freeing the link rod to disengage.
!
WARNING
Disengagement of a steering link rod can result in the boat taking a full, sudden, sharp turn. This potentially
violent action can cause occupants to be thrown overboard exposing them to serious injury or death.
