Instruction Manual

  • 1. Loosening the Seal Gland. Turn the outboard hard to port; place the pin wrench in the holes of a gland. And use a 5⁄8-inch box wrench on the nut on the port end of the piston rod. (NOTE:Turn counterclockwise on the pin wrench with opposite pressure on the box wrench to loosen the seal gland)
  • 2.Removing the Support Bracket. Use a 3/4-inch socket wrench to remove the nut and washer securing the support bracket to the support rod. (Do the same to the piston rod nut and washer. ) Use wrenches on the opposite ends to keep the rods from turning. With hardware gone, pull off the support bracket.
  • 3. Use the pin wrench to remove the Old Seal Gland.
  • 4.Install the New Seal Gland. Place the tapered guide tool from the kit on the end of the piston rod and lubricate it and the piston rod well with oil or grease. Carefully slide the new seal gland over the guide and onto the piston rod until it reaches the cylinder. Screw the seal gland into the cylinder, but don't tighten it yet. Remove the guide tool; it is not part of the final assembly, but you will need it for the other side.
  • 5. Reinstall the Support Bracket. Reconnect the support bracket to the support rod and piston rod and replace the washers and nuts, tightening the nuts against the washers. You may need to use wrenches on the opposite nuts to tighten sufficiently.
  • 6. Tightening the New Seal Gland. Use the pin wrench to tighten the new seal gland while using a 5⁄8-inch box wrench on the starboard end of the piston rod for counter torque.

Replaced old seals in my sea star hydraulic steering HC5345 with these. Works perfectly, and no leaks. Follow instructions, watch videos, and use pet pads to absorb the fluid when removing components.

Seals failed on 2nd use. When I went to contact the company, their website was nonexsitant. Complete trash and waste of time. Use OEM or different vendor.

I bought this because I was in a rush to get it and install it. Seems to work fine. Will update if I have a problem when I put the boat back in the water. I don't anticipate one, since it seems to be of quality.
