1. It is important to remove and

lubricate the drive wire after a day
of running. Make sure the battery
pack is unplugged. To lubricate the
wire you will need:

• 1.5mm Allen wrench

• GrimRacer Cable Grease

Paper

Towels

2. Using a 1.5mm Allen wrench, loosen the set screws holding the drive

wire to the motor coupler. It is important to note that there are two set
screws holding the wire in position.

3. Slip the wire out the back of the

boat. Wipe off any grease and
water that might be on the wire.

4. Using the GrimRacer speed grease, apply a small amount to the wire

and slide it back into the boat. Be careful to align the wire to the hole
in the end of the motor coupler.

5. Leave about 1/16” [2mm] gap

between the front of the drive dog
and the back of the shaft tube.

6. Tighten the set screws to hold the wire in place. Do not over tighten

the set screws. It is also a good idea to tighten one screw lightly and
then the other. Go back and forth between the screws to keep even
tension on the drive wire.
