🔌 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
