Step 1
Ensure the engine is OFF and disconnect the engine safety stop
switch. Be sure that the throttle/shift control lever is in neutral. The
engine must be cool.
Step 2
Remove the access panel in the rear trunk compartment.
Step 3
Turn the steering wheel so that the maximum amount of steering
cable is seen (see photo to the right, notice that the engine has
been removed, this is not necessary for lubrication).
Step 4
Use solvent to clean old lubricant from the cable end, pivot and
rudder shaft.
Step 5
Spread a generous amount of white lithium grease over the cable
end. Work the steering wheel back and forth and reapply grease.
Step 6
Using the flexible end of a grease gun, give two (2) full shots of
white lithium grease to the zerk fitting on the steering tube pivot
(circled above). Clean up any old grease purged from the areas.
NOTE: The ProStar has one additional rudder port zerk fitting. Do
NOT use white lithium grease on this rudder port. Use two (2) full
shots of Alpha FG2-100, available only from an authorized Master-
