Steering
•
This yacht features a hydraulic steering system.
•
Check the fluid level in the hydraulic steering reservoir every time you use your yacht.
•
Yacht steering is not self-centering.
•
Refer to the engine manual for more steering system details.
Rudder Stuffing Gland
•
The rudder stuffing gland is part of the assembly where
the rudders emerge from the bottom of the yacht.
•
The shaft stuffing gland should not leak any water.
•
If a leak develops, it can usually be stopped by tightening
the packing gland nuts slightly.
•
Do not over tighten the packing gland nuts.
•
If stuffing gland leakage becomes excessive, packing
replacement can be performed as follows:
1.
Remove the yacht from the water.
2.
Loosen the packing gland nuts and back the packing
gland from the sleeve.
3.
Remove the old packing.
4.
Wrap new packing around the shaft.
5.
Cut the rings with a razor blade at an angle approxi-
mately 30 degrees to the long axis of the shaft.
6.
Stagger the ends of each ring around the shaft and insure that the rings are at the bottom in the sleeve.
7.
Tighten the packing gland nuts until resistance is felt.
