For higher horsepower applications, high performance SilverSteer™ cylinder is recommended.
WARNING These recommendations should be used as a general reference only. For any further information please contact us.
WARNING These steering systems can only be used when the engine is in compliance with the approved U.S. Coast Guard vessel horsepower rating. When installing UC128-OBF cylinder in conjunction with an ENGINE JACK PLATE trim system, a manual clearence check must be made in all moveable positions. Failure to comply with the installation manual for engine application, cylinder/hose clearence, and approved hydraulic fluids, may result in loss of steering, causing serious property damage and / or personal injury.
