PURPOSE OF TEST
The Rudder alignment & Install check to ensuring the system performance is in accordance
to the calculation of rudder stock and steering gear system from maker engineering and
comply with requirement of the NK Classification Society.
2. REQUEREMENT
2.1. To Confirm the position of each bush bearing and stock is set on straight line
2.2. The vertically reference line of the position rudder stock to be perpendicular by main
engine propulsion straight line.
3.
PROCEDURE
3.1. The rudder stock is assumed to be aligned in the dock. The line running through
centre of the upper and lower gudgeon bearings are defined as the reference line (0
offset).
3.2. A preliminary alignment of the rudder blade should be carried out in dock. A visual
straight line should be established from the centre of the rudder pintle to the output
of lower rudder bush bearing. The intermediate shaft bearing, the temporary support
and the bearings should be positioned according to the reference line.
3.3. Finish the rudder alignment, installation equipment to be done ie,
3.3.1.Loading and install bushing upper and lower position (complete with
retaining ring)
3.3.2. Loading and install rudder stock complete with sleeve
3.3.3.Loading the rudder blade complete with rudder pintle that already fixed and
positioned according to the reference lanes
3.3.4.Tighten the blade to rudder stock according the maker calculations
3.3.5.Loading the steering gear and tighten to rudder stock as per instruction from

maker procedure ie,
Start installation of steering gear when foundation has been build
according to maker foundation plan
To prevent damage and rust, remove the protecting material of
steering gear only just before commissioning
Lift up the steering gear and let it carefully down over the erected
rudder stock
Take care when seal on lower end of rudder carrier slips over the
stainless steel liner
Mounting of cone connection of tiller to rudder stock according to
particulars stated on steering gears final drawing
Set the steering gear down on top of foundation and use aligning
screws, screwed in to cylinder feet, for the adjusting of height
Check clearance of sliding stones by means of a spay for
rectangularity of rudder stack axis to axis of cylinder and ram. Check
at first one side (A and B) and then the other (C and D)
Adjust steering gear until gap x is over whole circle within the
tolerance limit of 0,1 mm
Bore foundation bolt holes. Remove steering gear by turning on
foundation, if necessary
Make steel chocks between carrier unit and foundations top plate
according to the requirements
Fit in chock and ream bolt holes for fitting bolts
Make epoxy resin chocks according to requirements and resin makers
instructions
Weld the cylinder stopper on foundations top plate. Fit stopper keys
and protect them
Prepared By BNS/PPC/PQE - 2010
Fit storage tank and connecting pipe
Make final check before commissioning, if possible under survey of
