Emergency Steering Operation Procedures


•The emergency steering technique and diagram should be presented in the steering
gear room and bridge.
•Even in an emergency, we are unable to move the large rudder manually or by any other
means, which is why a hydraulic motor is supplied directly from the emergency
generator via the emergency switch board (SOLAS regulation). Additionally, it should be
shown in the driver's cabin.
•Assure that emergency communications are clear via VHF or the ship's telephone
system.
•Normally, a switch is provided in the steering gear's power supply panel for the tele
motor; deactivate the switch.
•Alternate the mode of operation by selecting the switch for the emergency power-
supplied motor.
•The manual operation helms wheel, a safety pin ensures that the manual operation is
always in cut-off mode during normal operation. Take out that pin.
•With the aid of a rudder angle indication, a helms wheel is provided for controlling the
flow of oil to the rams. The wheel can be spun clockwise or counterclockwise to travel
port or starboard, or vice versa.
•If there is a power breakdown, the rudder angle is received from the bridge using a
sound power telephone. Turn the wheel immediately upon receiving the orders and
check the rudder angle indicator
