Details on motor, gearhouse, tunnel, and propeller construction and materials.
Information on battery requirements, max usage time, and safety mechanisms.
Faulty installation of tunnel, thruster, or panel voids all warranty.
Place thruster as deep as possible for optimal water pressure and efficiency.
Recommended tunnel length is 2-4x tunnel diameter to avoid friction and cavitation.
Rounded tunnel ends prevent turbulence cavitation and reduce noise.
Curved ends improve water intake, providing additional thrust via vacuum.
Angled tunnel to hull connections offer similar benefits to rounded ends.
Recess the hull at the tunnel's rear to eliminate drag from the tunnel end.
Install a deflector/spoiler in front of the tunnel to redirect water flow.
Avoid casting where thruster is placed; ensure all gaps are filled.
Avoid casting where motor bracket is placed to prevent misfit and gearhouse failure.
Paint gearhouse/propeller, avoid dry running, and protect during construction.
Check electrical connections and isolation with main switch off.
Details the pin configuration for the 4-pole AMP connector.
Verify propeller fastening, free rotation, zinc anode security, and gearhouse bolts.
Verify electrical connections, isolation, and motor bracket bolts.
Adhere to usage limits, safety distances, and proper shutdown procedures.
Understand voltage impact, control usage, and address performance issues promptly.
Instructions for operating a bowthruster using control panels or joysticks.
Operation for single stern thrusters and combined bow/stern systems.
Apply antifouling to gearhouse/propeller, but not zinc anodes or shafts.
Check propeller, motor bolts, connections, and battery condition annually.
Check flexible coupling, propeller fastening, and gear engagement.
Verify voltage, control signals, wiring, and solenoids.
Address low voltage, brush issues, tunnel growth, or solenoid problems.
