Cosmetic Care & Maintenance
Your vessel features rack or rotary style steering systems
that utilize a cable with assistance through the engine
power steering pump. As you turn the steering wheel force
is applied through the system to a hydraulic cylinder
attached at the engine rear and connected through the
engine power steering pump hoses.
With the engine running, check the engine power steering
pump levels before each outing. Add the appropriate power
steering fluid. Periodically inspect the entire steering system
for tightness and signs of wear and leaks including the
steering wheel. Lubricate the steering shaft at the engine.
Refer to the manufacturer’s engine manual in the owner’s
document pouch for additional information along with
the maintenance chart in this chapter.
