Maintenance
As a part of the seasonal service of your Thruster before every season, always check that:
In Water
• The area around the thruster inside the boat is clean and dry. Ensure there are no signs of water leaks.
•
All electrical connections are clean and fastened fi rmly.
• Ensure that your batteries are in good condition.
Out of Water
• Check the propeller(s) or tunnel for any damage for example impact damage.
• The propeller(s) is fastened securely to the gear leg.
• Check all components of thruster are fastened securely.
• Clean the tunnel and gear leg from marine growth.
• Paint the propeller and gear leg with anti-fouling before every season to keep it clean from sea growth.
(NB: Never paint the anode, sealing or
propeller shaft. Ensure paint does not enter the space between the propeller and the gear leg.)
• Change the anode before every season, or when half the anode has eroded. Always use a sealant or thread glue on the holding screw to ensure
that it does not fall off.
• Check the gear leg is not leaking oil
