Connect and Fill the Hydraulic System
Before you start………
ξAs with all hydraulic systems, it is very important to keep any dirt or debris from entering the system.
ξIf you haven’t already, loosen the steering tension adjustment on your motor to the minimum setting. The motor should turn very easily. (If necessary refer to your outboard motor’s owner’s manual).
ξThe fittings in the electro hydraulic unit (Pump unit) and the Cylinder are barbed hose fittings. It is important that you push the hose completely over the barbs. Use some fluid to lube the inside of hose before pushing them on. It will make the process slightly easier.
ξThis process may be a little messy so keep a few rags handy. Safety glasses are also a good idea.
