APPENDIX H:
MAINTENANCE & STORAGE
ERASING ALL FOBS FROM MEMORY
1. Power the unit up in the stowed position
2. Deploy, stow and re-deploy the unit prior to pressing any fob buttons.
3. The unit will begin “beeping” indicating that it is ready to learn new wireless
controls from the step above.
4. Within 20 seconds (while the system is still beeping) stow and deploy the system
once more.
5. The system will sound a long beep indicating that all fobs have been erased from
memory.
If this step is being performed because of concerns about a defective fob, it
will be necessary to remove the batteries from all fobs in question prior to
completing this process.
It is recommended that the following steps be taken after each use.
Adhering to these recommendations can greatly increase the life of the
unit. Failure to properly maintain the unit may void the warranty and can result
in system damage, personal injury, and property damage.
• Rinse off any salt water deposits and wipe the motor down with a clean soft cloth. Do
not use a pressure washer to clean the unit.
• Check that the propeller is clear of any fishing line or weeds.
• Use the prop nut tool to ensure the prop nut is properly secured.
• Lubricate all moving parts with a non-aerosol lubricant.
• Clean battery terminals regularly and check for loose terminal nuts.
• Store in a well-ventilated, dry area
• Do not leave the motor outside in the elements, especially in cold winter and/or salt
water environments. Long exposure to sub-zero temperature will reduce the strength
of the permanent magnets of the motor and result in reduced thrust.
• Never use chemicals (alcohol, solvents, and acids) on any of the system components.
• Use a Vinyl UV protector periodically on the power cables to avoid
excessive sun damage.
• Periodically check for loose connections and/or excessive corrosion.
