The electro-hydraulic steering system contributes to a good maneuverability of the yacht. When the steering wheel in the helm station is turned, a hydraulic pump is operated to activate the piston located in the engine room and connected directly to the rudders, thus maneuvering the yacht.
The transfer of the steering control to a secondary control station takes place with the following procedure: require the transfer from the station in operation which will remain active until the consent is given from the receiving station.
The mutual transfer between the different stations can only take place in the absence of propulsion (engines in neutral position).
The steering of a rudder is always guaranteed in case of main electronic system failure by a backup panel.
A rudder that cannot be electrically operated can always be released with the power pack by-pass and will be free to move.
For further information on use and maintenance, please refer to the manufacturer’s manual.
