Tunnel Installation
1. Connect both ends of the tunnel to the thruster motor. All hooks must be completely interlocked making the inside of the tunnel smooth.
(NB:
Ensure tunnel moulding around the gear leg and tunnel top align.)

Hydropod Modifi cation
Defi ne the location to install the thruster.
(NB: Ensure internally the thruster will not obstruct any objects. Ensure cables internally do not obstruct any
objects. Do not place cables or control box close to high heat radiating parts EG. Turbo/ exhaust manifolds etc.)
1. Mark the locations of the three drill holes for the SX thruster using the defi ned measurements or from a template to the hull. (NB: Maximum hull
thickness is 50mm.)
2. Drill main hole for the cable tube, then two support bolt holes.
3. Place the SX thruster into the Hydro pod mould.
4. Place the hydro-pod with the SX thruster on the hull. Use the pre-drilled holes to guide the assembly to the desired location.
(NB: The SX thruster
in the Hydro pod will ensure no flexing of the mould will occur)
5. Modify the Hydro pod mould to match the hull profi le of the boat. Aim to obtain both the front and back tips of the mould sit flush to the hull.
Follow the below instructions depending on the modifi cation required:
A) Trim the wings of the hydro pod to match the hull profi le.
(NB: Excessive heat caused by the cutting method can cause the mould to melt in the
worked area.)
OR
B) Determine to use appropriate fi ller to fi ll the gap between the hydro pod and the hull.
(NB: Do not fi ll gaps at this stage if required.)
