Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum horsepower this steering system can accommodate?
This Uflex Rotech system is generally suitable for most outboard engines up to 150 horsepower, but always consult your boat's manual for specific steering system recommendations.
Can this rotary steering be used with a tilt helm?
This specific Rotech package is a standard rotary system and does not include a tilt helm feature. A separate tilt helm unit would be required if that functionality is desired.
How do I measure for the correct cable length?
Measure the distance from the center of the engine to the helm location, add the distance from the engine's center steering arm to the center of the engine, and then add 1.5 feet for cable bend radius. This package includes a 20' cable.
What is the internal diameter of the steering cable conduit?
The specific conduit diameter is not provided in the product details, but standard marine steering cable conduits are designed to accommodate the included cable smoothly.
Is the bezel included designed for a standard dashboard cutout?
The included bezel has a 3-inch diameter, which is standard for many marine dashboard installations. Verify your dashboard opening before purchase.
