SHAFT AND MOTOR MAINTENANCE:

After each day of operation we feel it’s best to remove the motor
and fl ush it out with a moisture displacer and re-oil the bearings.
You are going to need the following tools and supplies.

GrimRacer Cable Grease
12mm open end wrench
10mm open end wrench
#2 Phillips Screwdriver

Water displacer
Bearing oil
Paper Towel

1.

Start by removing the water lines to the motor jacket. Also

unplug the three connector leads to the motor.

2.

Use the 12mm and 10mm wrenches to loosen the cable

coupler from the cable. To do so hold the 12mm wrench still and
rotate the 10mm wrench counterclockwise.

3.

Fully loosen the coupler and fi rmly pull the prop and shaft

away from the coupler.

4.

Use a #2 Phillips Screwdriver to remove the 4 motor pad

screws.

5.

Place the motor in a rag or paper towel and spray a water

displacer into the fi ttings on the water jacket as well as in the
motor itself. After the motor is “pickled,” wipe it down and reinstall
it in the boat using the above instructions in reverse order.
