BOAT MAINTENANCE
BOAT MAINTENANCE
DRIVE LINE
1. Remove the props.
2. Loosen the motor coupler set screws for the flex cables.
3. Slide the flex cables out of the drives.
4. Lubricate the flex cables with marine grease.
5. Lubricate the drive ball bearings with a light oil for bearings.
6. Reassemble the drives and wipe away any excess grease and oil.
HULL
1. The hull requires very little maintenance, but must be kept in good condition in order to perform as expected and to
ensure safe operation.
2. Look closely at the exterior surfaces of the hull.
3. Check for damage, chips, cracks and scratches.
4. Determine if damage has weakened the fiberglass and take the appropriate action to fix the
damage. Scratches and hair line cracks are common and typically do not require any attention.
HARDWARE
1. Radio control boats experience high frequency vibrations and as a result the screws, nuts and bolts will become
loose.
2. Check all the motor hardware and motor mounts.
3. All running gear, hardware, rudder, drives, steering linkages, hatch quick releases, water-cooling
system, etc.
4. Use Thread Lock on all metal to metal hardware contacts.
WHAT TO DO AFTER THE BOAT HAS BEEN SUBMERGED
1. Remove the motors and lubricate the bearings on the motors.
2. Remove the electronics.
3. Dry out the interior.
4. The servo, receiver and battery packs will need to be dried out and checked for proper
operation before they are used again.
5. Test the battery pack under load to make sure it is ok to continue regular use.
