4. Blow off the truck with compressed air (optional, but
recommended). Wear safety glasses when using compressed air.
5. Remove the wheels from the truck.
6. Spray all the bearings, drivetrain, and fasteners with WD-40® or
similar water displacing light oil.
7. Let the truck stand or you may blow it off with compressed air.
Placing the truck in a warm, sunny spot will aid drying. Trapped
water and oil will continue to drip from the truck for a few hours.
Place it on a towel or piece of cardboard to protect the surface
underneath.
8. As a precautionary step, remove the sealed receiver box
cover. While unlikely, humidity or tiny amounts of moisture or
condensation may enter the receiver box during wet running.
This can cause long-term problems with the sensitive electronics
in the receiver. Removing the receiver box cover during storage
allows the air inside to dry. This step can improve the long-
term reliability of the receiver. It is not necessary to remove the
receiver or unplug any of the wires.
9. Additional Maintenance: Increase your frequency of disassembly,
inspection, and lubrication of the following items. This is
necessary after extended wet use or if the vehicle will not be
used for an extended period of time (such as a week or longer).
This additional maintenance is needed to prevent any trapped
moisture from corroding internal steel components.
• Stub axle housing bearings: Remove, clean, and re-oil the
bearings.
• Differentials: Remove, disassemble, clean, and re-grease the
differential components. Use a light coating of wheel bearing
grease (from an auto parts store) on the metal gear teeth. Refer
to your exploded view diagrams for help with disassembly and
reassembly.
• Motor: After operating your model in wet or muddy conditions,
remove the motor and clean any mud or dirt from the bearings.
To access the rear bearing, remove the plastic cap with thumb
pressure, or gently pry the cap off with a flat-blade screwdriver.
To prevent corrosion and ensure maximum bearing life,
lubricate the bearings with a light oil (available at your local
hobby store). Following these steps will extend motor life and
maintain peak performance. Be sure to wear eye protection when
using spray aerosol cleaners.
RECEIVER BOX:
MAINTAINING A WATERTIGHT SEAL
Removing and Installing Radio Gear
The unique design of the receiver box allows the removal and
installation of the receiver without losing the ability to maintain a
watertight seal in the box. The patent-pending wire clamp feature
gives you the ability to also install aftermarket radio systems and
maintain the watertight features of the receiver box.
Removing the Receiver
1. To remove the cover, remove the two 3x10mm button-head cap
screws.
2. To remove the receiver from the box, simply lift it out and set to the
side. The antenna wire is still inside the clamp area and cannot be
removed yet.
3. Remove the wire clamp by removing the two 2.8x8mm cap screws.
4. Unplug the servo cables from the receiver and remove the receiver.
Receiver Installation
1. Always install the wires into the box
before installing the receiver.
2. Install the antenna wire and the servo
cables into the receiver box.
3. Arrange the wires neatly using the wire
guides in the receiver box. The excess
wire will be bundled inside the receiver box.
Label which wire is for which channel.
4. Apply small bead of silicone grease
(Traxxas part #1647) to the wire clamp.
5. Install the wire clamp and tighten the
two 2.8x8mm cap screws securely.
6. Using double-sided adhesive foam tape,
install the receiver into the box and plug
the wires into receiver. Refer to page 10
for the wiring diagram.
Note: For best performance, it is recommended that the receiver be
installed in the original orientation as shown.
7. Make sure the O-ring is properly seated into the groove in the
receiver box so that the cover will not pinch it or damage it any way.
8. Install the cover and tighten the two 3x10mm button-head cap
screws securely.
9. Inspect the cover to make sure that the O-ring seal is not visible.
