Maintenance Tips

• Rinse After Use: Clean the motor with fresh water after each use, especially if used in saltwater, to prevent corrosion.

• Inspect Propeller: Regularly check the propeller for debris such as weeds or fishing line, which can damage seals and affect performance.

• Clean and Lubricate Shaft: Periodically clean the shaft with fresh water and apply a water-based silicone spray to ensure smooth deployment and retraction.

• Check Anodes: Inspect the galvanic anodes every six months or after 100 operating hours. Replace them as a set when 50%–75% of the material has dissolved to maintain effective corrosion protection. 

• Maintain Electrical Connections: Regularly clean electrical contacts and plug connections with contact spray to ensure reliable operation. 

• Proper Storage: Store the motor in dry conditions. For long-term storage, detach the battery and keep it at a 50% charge, checking every eight weeks.
