BEFORE STARTING
Study this manual and ALL other manuals provided with your
steering system carefully and thoroughly to familiarize yourself
with ALL components and their intended or required mounting
locations. Ensure that there is adequate space available for
installation as well as easy access for usage. It is good practice
to install ALL fittings prior to mounting units and then mount the
components prior to running hose/tube. This will allow for easy
hose to fitting connection, with less chance of error. If you must
run hose/tube first you MUST close hose/tube ends with tape or
similar material to prevent contamination from entering the system.
CONTAMINATION IS THE LEADING CAUSE OF A FAILURE IN ANY
HYDRAULIC STEERING SYSTEM.
Read ALL bold text, notes, cautions and warnings. Reading them
now will help prevent unexpected surprises during installation.
These instructions have been made as complete as possible, but
as brief as practical. If you have any questions, contact your Distributor
or SeaStar Solutions.
Things you need to know
SeaStar Steering Hoses CANNOT be cut. Cutting these hoses
will render them useless and a new hose will need to be ordered.
Failing to comply may result in possible loss of steering causing
property damage and or personal injury or death.
WARNING
Confirm that ALL the components needed to complete the installation
are purchased, including: helm pump, Steering Cylinders, hose/tube,
fluid, fittings and pipe sealant such as Loctite
®
PST. NEVER USE
TEFLON TAPE, ONLY use the paste type pipe sealant.
CAUTION
Take extreme care NOT to allow any foreign debris to enter the
steering system.
