Frequently Asked Questions
How do I adjust Westwood steering gear play?
Adjust steering gear play by loosening adjustment screw lock nut on top of gear box, turning adjustment screw clockwise in small increments until play disappears without binding, then retightening lock nut. Excessive play indicates wear requiring replacement.
What causes Westwood steering gears to fail?
Steering gear failure results from lack of lubrication causing excessive wear, impact damage from hitting obstacles, water contamination corroding internal gears, or normal wear after hundreds of hours. Replace rather than attempting internal repairs.
How often should steering gears be lubricated?
Lubricate steering gears every 50 hours or seasonally using appropriate gear oil, adding through fill plug until oil appears at check level. Proper lubrication prevents premature wear and maintains smooth operation.
Why is my Westwood steering notchy?
Notchy steering indicates worn gear teeth creating gaps, damaged bearings causing roughness, lack of lubrication increasing friction, or contamination with debris. Severe wear requires complete steering gear replacement.
Can I rebuild Westwood steering gears?
Steering gear rebuilding requires specialized knowledge and parts availability often making replacement more economical. Severely worn gears need complete replacement ensuring reliable steering performance and safety.
