STEERING
Your Regal uses a rotary or rack style steering system. These systems
transfer helm mechanical motion ot he engine. There is a hydraulic
steering cylinder which with the assistance of a steering pump sends
fl uid force to the stern drive steering arm, changing the course of
the boat, depending on the direction the steering wheel is turned.
Since the steering system is the primary link for engine control, it
must be periodically inspected and maintained. The hardware at
both the helm and engine must be checked regularly for tightness and
lubrication. Check the steering system for full steering to port and
starboard before disembarking. Refer to the steering manufacturer’s
owner’s manual and the maintenance chapter of this manual for more
information.
