What our service work and the manufacturer documentation say about keeping this model running.
Surveyors check hydraulic oil condition and level, absence of leaks, both power units, and the changeover between them. Emergency steering and full rudder-stroke tests, alarms, rudder angle indicators and limit switches are normally verified at each survey and before departure.
Keep a spare set of hydraulic seals and O-rings, pump shaft seal kit, filter elements, flexible hoses, a spare solenoid or control valve coil, rudder angle feedback transmitter and limit switches, plus hydraulic oil sufficient for a system top-up.
