Boat Care & Maintenance
Lubricating the Flex Shaft
IMPORTANT:
The bearing in the water cooled motor mount must be regularly lubricated
with a light coating of oil to prevent corrosion through the ingress of water.
Insufficient lubrication may lead to the premature failure of the motor.
Note: Image shows flex shaft removed for clarity - the bearing can be
lubricated with the flex shaft in place.
Lubricating the flex shaft is vital to the life of the drive train. Lubricant also acts
as a water seal, keeping water from entering the hull through the stuffing tube.
Lubricate the drive shaft after every 2 or 3 uses for optimal performance.
1. Use the provided 2mm Allen key to loosen the two grub screws on the
coupler which are located closest to the back of the boat. Pull the drive
shaft out the back of the boat taking care not to damage the propeller.
2. Lubricate the flex shaft with high quality, water-proof, marine grease and
reinstall in the reverse order. Be sure to retighten the coupler grub screws.
NOTE:
1. Excessive noise from the drive-train can an indicate that the flex shaft is not properly lubricated.
2. For best result use only high quality, water-proof, marine grease.
Hardware
Radio controlled boats experience high frequency vibrations and as a result the screws, nuts, and bolts will
become loose. Check all screws, nuts and bolts after every 2 or 3 uses.
Turn Fins
The Atomik Barbwire 2 features adjustable turn fins to aid in stability while
turning. These can be adjusted using the included Allen key. The optimum
angle of the adjustment is 45 degrees to the hull.
Storing & Transporting Your Boat
1. Remove the prop to prevent injuries and to keep the prop in good condition.
2. NEVER keep the 11.1V battery inside the boat while not in use.
3. Keep the boat in a safe and secure place to prevent damage to the hull and running hardware.
4. After a day on the water, drain any accumulation of water and allow the interior of the boat to dry before
reinstalling the hatch.
5. Remove the AA controller batteries if the boat will not be used for extended periods of time.
