Old Brush Removal
1. Remove the lid from the battery box.
2. Remove the red lead from the battery.
3. Pull up on the brush motor housing tube (the short
tube on the top of the buoy with the round end cap).
The brush assembly is attached to the housing. Pull
the entire assembly out of the tube.
You do not need to remove any screws to
remove the brush assembly from the tube.
4. Put on gloves to handle the fiberglass drive shaft.
5. Loosen the set screw holding the existing brush in
place using a 3/32 in. Allen hex wrench.
6. Slide the existing brush off of the fiberglass shaft.
New Brush Installation
1. Clean the fiberglass shaft thoroughly.
2. Loosen the compression fitting (located on the bottom
of the buoy) that holds the RDO PRO or RDO Titan
probe so that the probe moves when pushed or
pulled.
3. Clean the RDO PRO or RDO Titan sensor cap using
clean water and a soft bristled brush (such as a
toothbrush).
You can slide the probe forward (away from
the cable end) through the drive shaft down
tube for easier access. Be sure to slide the
probe back into place when it is clean.
