» Keep the propeller and gearhouse clean from growth by painting with antifouling before every season.
PS ! The zinc anode, sealing and propeller shafts must abso-lutely not be painted. Be careful that you don't fill paint in the
"tracks" in the gearhouse that the propeller hub moves in.
» Change the zinc anode before every season, or when about half the anode is gone. Always use a sealant on the screw holding
the zincanode to ensure that it does not fall off. Please observe that in some waterconditions it can be necessary to install an extra
zincanode to ensure that it lasts for the whole period between regular service lifts of the boat. Consult your dealer for information on
how to do this.
» As a part of the seasonal service of your boat, and before every season, always check that:
• The propeller is securely fastened
• The area where the thruster is installed is clean and dry. If there are signs of water you must try to find the source and eliminate it.
• All electrical connections are clean and fastened firmly.
• Make sure that your batteries are in a good condition so that the thruster gets a good voltage. Old or bad batteries will give a re-
duced performance from the thruster.
