pack the outboard before transportation.
Figure 11-1
11.2 Placement
When place the outboard on the ground, ensure the ground is flat and clean.
It’s better to put some damping cotton or cushion under the outboard to prevent
damage.
The Li-ion batteries over 100Wh are not allowed in the aircraft. The Li-
ion batteries are classified under Class 9 (dangerous goods - see
Lithium
Battery Guidance Document IATA 2015 Revision 1 – I-Site www.iata.org
).
Never ship a damaged or broken battery.
11.3 Storage
If your outboard is going to be stored for more than 2 months, it’s advised to
have the outboard cleaned, checked prior to storage. It’s recommended to pack
the outboard with ePropulsion original package for storage.
Take adequate damping-absorber for protection before transport and
storage. And ensure the propeller receives no pressure if the propeller is
installed on the propeller shaft.
Store the outboard in a dry, well ventilated place without direct sun
exposure.
