MAINTENANCE
NOTICE
DAMAGE CAUSED BY IMPROPER TRAILERING OR WATER INTRUSION THROUGH THE BREATHER TUBE IS NOT
COVERED BY THE PRODUCT WARRANTY. IT IS THE USER’S RESPONSIBILTY TO INSURE THAT THE NECESSARY
PROCEDURES ARE FOLLOWED.
1. Electrical Connec ons
Periodically, and at least once per season, be sure to check the electrical connec on. As necessary, clean
off all connec ons and reapply dielectric grease to protect the connec on from corrosion
2. Use in Salt Water Area
This motor li bracket is constructed of high quality marine grade aluminum alloys and stainless steel
hardware making the unit suitable for use in many marine environments. However, if this unit is to be
used in salt water area, it is necessary to a ach a zinc anode to reduce corrosive effects. (Panther 55-
9000) Anodes may be purchased through the dealer or by calling the number toward the back of this
booklet. To prevent premature discolora on and corrosion, par cularly in salt water and brackish water
areas, it is a good prac ce to periodically wash down the Motor Li unit with fresh water.
3. Adding Grease
The actuator gear case is filled with grease at the factory. It may occasionally be necessary to add more
grease through the zerk. You can add grease with the unit in any posi on. If your Trim and Tilt receives
heavy use, perhaps once a year give it a supplemental pump or two of grease. Do not over do it, and it
probably isn’t necessary at all unless the actuator starts to become noisy. Pu ng in too much grease
may cause more damage than good.
