SX Spacer

Follow the installation of the SX thruster in the 

Motor Installation 

to step 3

see next page

1.     Defi ne the location to install the thruster. 

(NB: Ensure the thruster does not protrude past the transom profi le on any side and there is no 

obstruction to the thrusters water flow. Also, check internally the thruster will not obstruct any objects.) 

2.     Mark the locations of the three drill holes using the defi ned measurements in this manual or from a template. 

(NB: Maximum hull thickness is 

50mm including optional spacer or 150mm for extended hull thickness models.)

3.    Drill main hole, then two support bolt holes. Clean the area from dust for installation of the thruster. 

(NB: Hull holes must be drilled fi rst before 

attaching the spacer as the top support holes are larger than the spacers.)

---------

4.    Drill out the two support bolt holes in the spacer. 

5.     Apply MS Polymer sealant or equal to the back surface face of the spacer.

6.   Place the spacer to the hull.

Continue the installation of the SX thruster from step 4 in the 

Motor Installation.

IMPORTANT 

The spacer and hull have different hole 

diameters for the support bolts. This is to 

allow the compression rings to be inserted 

into the hull only.

The spacer and hull for the main tube have 

the same hole diameter so compression 

rings can be inserted for the total length of 

the hole.
