## 🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta steering cylinder from the Marine Propulsion group, weighing 1.549 kg and listed for 16 applications across DPH drives and D series engines. It applies to TSK units from serial A1013851 onward, so the drive serial number decides between this and the earlier cylinder.

## 🔌 Function

Converts hydraulic pressure from the helm pump into the force that swings the drive, steering the boat.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Steering gone heavy, vague or wandering
-   The wheel turning without the drive following it
-   Hydraulic fluid weeping at the rod seal or the end gland
-   Rod scored, pitted or corroded where it enters the seal
-   Air in the system needing repeated bleeding, or a spongy feel at the wheel

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Steering is a safety system - bleed fully and check the full lock-to-lock travel and for leaks before the boat leaves the berth
-   Check the drive serial number: this cylinder applies to TSK units from serial A1013851 onwards, and the earlier build takes a different cylinder
-   Inspect the hoses and unions at the same time; a new cylinder will not cure a leaking fitting
