Check Actuator Friction

Introduction

The Seakeeper Ride design utilizes a round Actuator clamped in place by the Seal Plate and Actuator Plate. This design allows for flexibility in installations, easy maintenance, reduced stocking parts as well as preventing damage if underwater objects are struck. The design requires that the friction generated to hold the Actuators in place is checked as part of routine maintenance. This procedure will require the boat engines shut down, access to the Controller assemblies and the Seakeeper Ride system turned on and in manual mode.
