STEERING
mfr FIG 2300 UFL
Manual Inboard Steering Systems
HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS: Under normal operating conditions, a turn of the steering wheel will send the oil from the helm unit into one of the two connecting hydraulic lines.
The oil will be pumped into one of the chambers of the cylinder and either extend or retract the cylinder rod, depending on the steering wheel rotation.
The fluid going out from the other chamber of the cylinder is returned to the helm via the other hydraulic line.
The helm unit consists of both a hydraulic pump and a valve assembly (UP28FM, UP33FM, UP39FM).
The valve assembly prevents outgoing fluid from returning along the same line, isolates each steering station, locks the rudder and eliminates rudder “feedback" to the helm. The cylinders are double acting and may be balanced unbalanced, (in which case the rod extends through only one end of the cylinder).

NOTE:
Pre-made hoses recom- mended for dual cylinder, dual station or hose runs longer than 50 feet.
For systems 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 copper tubing (3/8" dia. or 10 mm dia.) can be used as an alternative tubing for plumbing the system. For these applica- tions a fitting kit, KIT95 or KIT100, is required (spe- cial order only).
For applications on work boats, the use of copper tubing is recommended.
