CONTROLS/INDICATORS
STEERING
Under certain power trim positions of the outboard motor, there can be a noticeable pull on the
steering wheel. This is often referred to as “steering torque.” The position of the outboard motor’s trim
tab affects the amount of steering torque. See your outboard motor operator’s manual for adjustment
of the trim tab. Under any circumstances, the operator should always keep a rm, continuous grip on
the steering wheel.
The owner/operator must inspect the steering system frequently.
• For Cable Steering, check for smooth, free, full range operation and steering components not worn
or loose.
• For Hydraulic Steering, the uid level should be checked periodically to determine the correct level.
Your Skeeter Dealer should investigate any steering system irregularities immediately. DO NOT
continue to operate the boat if the steering system is malfunctioning.
