Chapter 8
Regals feature 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
pouch for additional information along with the
maintenance chart in this chapter.
