Maintenance

Always replace the shaft when it is damaged or shows visible wear or injury and property
damage my result. Lubricating the shaft is vital to the life of the drivetrain. The lubricant also
acts as a water seal, keeping water from entering the hull through the stuffing box.
Lubricate the shaft, propeller shaft and all moving parts after every 2-3 hours of operation.
Always replace any parts that show visible wear or damage.
1. Loosen the coupling between the motor
and the shaft.
2. Loosen setscrew from the shaft and remove
it from the back of the boat. Tip: Use paper
or cloth to touch the shaft.
3. Remove the drive shaft by sliding it out
of the stuffing box. Wipe lubricant and
material from the shaft. Lubricate the full
length of the shaft assembly up the drive
dog with marine grease.
4. Apply threadlock to the coupling setscrew.
Threadlock will help prevent the shaft from
loosening during usage.
5. Carefully reinstall the drive shaft, ensuring
that there is a 1-2mm gap between the prop
strut and the drive dog to allow for shaft
shrinkage under load.
Warning: Running the boat in salt water could cause some parts to corrode.
If you run the boat in salt water, rinse it thoroughly in fresh water after each use and lubricate
the drive system.
Notice: Because of its corrosive effects, running RC boats in salt water is at the discretion of
the user.
