Excellent ease of use
The hydraulic servo support ensures minor physical effort when using the control elements on the control panel. This is similar to the universally familiar power steering found nowadays in every motor vehicle. This ease of use is ensured by GKS systems irrespective of the length of the mechanical linkage of bars. The precision catch on the joysticks also provides precision control for the boat.
High degree of operational safety
In case of hydraulic breakdown, the mechanical linkage of bars can be moved as before. The operating forces will then be as great as without servo support.
Easy installation
The hydraulic servo support is a compact unit and ready for easy retrofitting. Simply separate the linkage of bars near the control panel and connect both ends to the servo support.
The control unit comprises individual sub-assemblies that can be assembled according to customer requests and requirements. The flexible implementation of your requests, our reliability and everpresent sympathetic ear for suggestions has guaranteed customer satisfaction for more than 35 years.
