TAKING CARE OF YOUR BIXPY MOTOR
The Bixpy K-1 Motor is a direct drive system and as such operates quietly and efficiently using rechargeable
lithium batteries. The motor housing and all Bixpy Power Packs are fully sealed and require minimal
maintenance. Keep them clean and rinse or run them in fresh water after each use. The Motor and Power
Packs are happiest when kept clean and stored in cool dry conditions.
● The front of your Bixpy Motor acts as a water cooling system for the electronics inside the housing
and the plastic “face” acts as a bumper for your motor in case of impact. Do not block the intakes
and do not operate without the bumper.
● The Bixpy Propeller is designed with a “cutting” mechanism at its base to break weed and grass.
Even so eelgrass and other long and fibrous plants can make their way into the intake and wrap
around the propeller. Do not run the motor if grass or weed is clogging your propeller housing. This
can overheat the motor and in the long run can ruin your motor and/or Power Packs. Use forceps to
remove grass or other debris from your propeller housing. In extreme cases you can open the outlet
using a 3 millimeter Allen wrench and clean out your propeller housing. In the rare event that you
break your propeller DO NOT run your motor with a broken propeller.
● Your Jet uses some of the most advanced alloys to ensure maintenance free use in saltwater. Even
so we recommend rinsing or running your equipment in fresh water after use in salt water to extend
its life.
● Your Bixpy Motor is made to run in water. It uses water as a coolant and to moderate propeller
speed. Running it in air can damage your motor and/or Power Packs. DO NOT RUN IN AIR.
