  • Page 110: Hydraulic Steering

    13.3 HYDRAULIC STEERING General points - Steering is achieved by rotating the engine base. This rotation is done using a hydraulic ram. - Protect the ram from any risk of impact, scratches or any other type of degradation. No impurities must ever penetrate the inside of the ram. - Nothing must impede the movement of the ram: regularly ensure that the ram is able to function smoothly: when moving the engine from hard to port to hard to starboard ;...
  • Page 111 After each winter, check that rotating the wheel to starboard turns the boat to starboard ; that the circuit is properly bled ; that there are no leaks in the connections, the pumps, the ram or the flexible hydraulic hoses ; that the pump is filled with oil to the correct level(25 mm of air must be left in the pump : this space is vital for the hydraulic circuit to work properly, it allows the oil to expand) ;...

    13.4 BOW THRUSTER General points - The bow-thruster's motor is DC powered. - The bow-thruster assists with steering the boat when manoeuvering at low speed (picking up a mooring buoy or berthing on a pontoon for instance). - An operating relay is installed in the circuit. - A fuse protects the electrical circuit.
  • Page 113 During lift-out - Check that the propellers turn properly, with neither play nor stiffness. - Clean the blades carefully. - Remove the propeller, clean the housing and the shaft, smear the shaft and the stainlees steel capsules with silicon-based grease before putting the propeller back. - After cleaning and applying a primer, antifoul the housing and the propellers.

    14.2.2 Towing Responsibility: It is important that the owner thinks through the actions required when securing a towing cable onboard. Location of attachment points A. Mooring cleats which correspond to the anchor points for the lifelines. B. Towing: - at the bow, to be towed - at the stern, to tow - Generally the breaking strength of lines/chains must not exceed 80% of the breaking strength of the anchor points.

    14.4 ELECTRIC WINDLASS General points - The windlass is DC powered. - The windlass is designed for anchoring purposes: Any other use is dangerous and forbidden. - An operation relay is fitted to the electrical circuit. - A circuit-breaker protects the power supply to the windlass. - The windlass operation is activated by an operational interlock relay which is powered by the engine's alternator: the windlass only works when the boat's engine is running.
  • Page 122 Maintenance - once a year, dismantle, carefully wash and grease all the moving parts of the windlass. - Regularly grease the supply terminals of the electric motor of the windlass and of the relay control box. Emergency anchoring procedure In the event of an electrical fault, it is possible to lower the anchor manually: Put the handle in the space provided for this to release the chain grab.
