Steering
Your boat comes equipped with a hydraulic steering system. The basic system for a single engine boat
contains a steering wheel, a hydraulic helm pump, a hydraulic steering cylinder, and hydraulic hoses.
Operation
When turning the steering wheel, the helm pump forces hydraulic fluid through hoses to and from the
steering cylinder which is connected to the tiller arm on the engine. The cylinder moves the tiller arm
to either port and starboard, depending upon the direction the steering wheel is turned.
Release the on/off switch. The system will confirm that it is ready for use when the LED light remains
green. While the thruster is on, the controller will emit a beep every 5 seconds.
To move the bow to the port direction push the left button. To move the bow to the starboard
direction, push the right button. To turn off the bow thruster controls, press the on/off switch once.
Refer to the thruster owner

s manual for complete details on the operation and warranty information.
