General Precautions
• Read the
WET CONDITIONS MAINTENANCE
procedures
and make sure that you have all the tools you will need to
properly maintain your boat.
• Not all batteries can be used in wet conditions. Consult the
battery manufacturer before use. Caution should be taken
when using Li-Po batteries in wet conditions.
• Most transmitters are not water-resistant. Consult your
transmitter’s manual or the manufacturer before operation.
• Never operate your transmitter or boat when lightning is
present.
• Salt water is very conductive and highly corrosive. If you
choose to run your boat in salt water, immediately rinse
the boat in fresh water after each use. Operating your boat
in salt water is at the sole discretion of the modeler.
Wet Conditions Maintenance
• Drain any water that has collected in the hull by removing
the drain plug or canopy and tilting the boat in the
appropriate direction to drain the water.
CAUTION:
Always keep hands, fingers, tools and any
loose or hanging objects away from rotating parts.
• Remove the battery pack(s) and dry the contacts. If you
have an air compressor or a can of compressed air, blow
out any water that may be inside the recessed connector
housings.
• Dry and lubricate parts after every 30 minutes of
operation or if the boat becomes submerged.
NOTICE:
Never use a pressure washer to clean your boat.
• Use an air compressor or a can of compressed air to dry
the boat and help remove any water that may have gotten
into small crevices or corners.
• Spray the bearings, fasteners and other metal parts with
a water-displacing light oil or lubricant.
• Let the boat air dry before you store it. Water (and oil)
may continue to drip for a few hours.
