Strict compliance to these special instructions when performing the installation and maintenance plus “common sense” operation are major accident prevention measures.  \nDANGER  \nImmediate hazards which WILL result in severe personal injury or death.  \nWARNING  \nHazards or unsafe practices which COULD result in severe personal injury or death.  \nCAUTION  \nHazards or unsafe practices which COULD result in minor injury or product or property damage.  \nNOTICE  \nInformation which is important to proper installation or maintenance, but isnot hazard-related.  \nWARNING  \nCleaning fluids containing ammonia, acids or any other corrosive ingredients MUST NOT be used for cleaning any part of this Hydraulic Steering System. Failure to comply will cause serious damage to the steering system, resulting in possible loss of steering, causing property damage, personal injury and/or death.  \nDon't compromise performance ... use genuine SeaStar parts only!  \n• SeaStar helms  \n• SeaStar hoses  \n• SeaStar Cylinders  \n• SeaStar Oil  \nSubstituting non SeaStar parts in any part of the SeaStar hydraulic steering system, may seriously compromise system performance.  \nSEASTAR Hydraulics  \nINTRODUCTION  \nThe SeaStar helms are the smoothest and most efficient hydraulic steering systems available. They have been designed for normal pleasure and commercial boat use where standard rigging arrangements are used.  \nBefore proceeding with the installation, read these instructions thoroughly. Teleflex cannot accept responsibility for installations where instructions have not been followed, where substitute parts have been used, or where modifications have been made to our products.  \nThis precision built product may not function properly if dirt or contaminant's are introduced into the system.  \nNOTICE  \nDue to a small amount of internal oil slip, a \"master spoke\" or  \n\"centered\" steering wheel cannot be maintained with a hydraulic steering system. For best results, use an equal distance spoke steering wheel.  \nIndex  \nSystem Diagram .........................................................................1  \nTools .........................................................................................2  \nMounting the Helm .....................................................................3  \nCylinder Mounting.......................................................................8  \nTubing Installation ....................................................................13  \nFilling and Purging ....................................................................16  \nMaintenance ...........................................................................20  \nTrouble Shooting Guide .............................................................20  \nTechnical Information................................................................23  \nParts List.................................................................................24  \nStatement of Limited Warranty ..................................................38  \nReturn Goods Procedure ...........................................................38  \nInboard & Sterndrive Powered Vessels  \nSEASTAR Hydraulics  \nTypical Inboard  \nSteering System  \nFILL AND VENT  \nSYSTEM HERE  \nCOMPENSATING ","cbCailNxutU0iwVr","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailNxutU0iwVr","pdf",451810,43,"English","# System Diagram\n# Tools\n# Mounting the Helm\n## Cylinder Mounting\n## Tubing Installation\n## Filling and Purging\n## Maintenance\n## Trouble Shooting Guide\n## Technical Information\n## Parts List\n## Statement of Limited Warranty\n## Return Goods Procedure","[{\"question\":\"What are the main safety alerts used during installation?\",\"answer\":\"The manual uses clear safety categories: DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION, and NOTICE.
