Checking the Thruster Oil Compensation
After every 50 hours of operational use, we recommend checking the fill level on the oil compensation
bladders for each thruster. This procedure should also be performed if the system has been stored for six
months or more.
To check the oil compensation bladder:
1. Place the boat bottom side up on a flat stable surface.
2. Locate the oil compensation bladder on each thruster, visually verify that the bladder is filled and
not flat or distended. Check for small to medium sized air bubbles in the oil compensation tube.
3. If required, add oil from the Oil Compensation Top Off Kit following the instructions provided
with the kit.
4. Connect and test the thrusters.
