Recommended Tools and Adhesives • • • • • • • • Needle nose pliers Marine grease (PRB0100 or PRB0101) Paper towel Rubbing alcohol Open end wrench: 7mm, 8mm Phillips screwdriver: #1 Hex wrench: 1.5mm, 3mm Clear tape (PRB0102) Recommended Radio Equipment and Batteries Batteries You will need a 2-channel transmitter. We recommend one of the crystal-free, ® ® interference-free Spektrum™, Pro Boat or JR radio systems using DSM marine technology.
Basic Assembly Required Equipment and Accessories Transmitter with batteries Motor batteries (charged) Hook and loop tape 1. Locate the pieces for the boat stand. The longer side pieces will key to the shorter end pieces. Use a small amount of Medium CA to glue the pieces together. 2. Loosen the fittings securing the hatch to the hull. Pull the rear of the hatch away from the hull slightly and then forward to remove it from the hull. 3. Remove the clear battery cover from the hull.
The programming module offers other beneficial adjustments like exponential throttle curves, and timing adjustments. Visit ProBoatModels.com and search "Programming Module" for further details. Note: It is recommended to bind the receiver to the transmitter at this time. Follow the instructions provided with your radio system for this procedure. Stay clear of the propeller in case the motor begins to operate unexpectedly. 5. Place the clear battery cover back into position.
7. Check the operation of the propeller in relationship to the throttle trigger. When the trigger is pulled in, the propeller must rotate counterclockwise as shown. If not, follow the instructions from the radio to set the servo reversing for the throttle. The recommended amount of steering response for initial setup is 30mm left and right from center as measured from the rear of the skeg (lowest part of the outboard).
Use a 3mm hex wrench and 7mm open end wrench to loosen the two bolts that attach the motor to the mount to adjust the trim. Use a 3mm hex wrench to loosen the four bolts that attach the motor mount to the hull to adjust the height. Finding the proper trim angle will allow the boat to turn correctly without sacrificing highend performance. Center of Gravity Moving the batteries to the front or back can significantly affect the boat's performance.
Maintenance Required Tools and Lubricants Lubricating the Flex Shaft Needle nose pliers Marine grease Paper towel Rubbing alcohol Open end wrench: 7mm, 8mm Phillips screwdriver: #1 Hex wrench: 1.5mm, 3mm Lubricating the drive system is vital to the life of the drivetrain. The lubricant also acts as a water seal, keeping water from entering the hull through the stuffing box.
3. Use needle nose pliers to grab the flex shaft, removing it from the lower end. 4. Use a paper towel and rubbing alcohol to clean the flex shaft. 6. Apply a small amount of Pro Boat Marine grease (PRB0100) through the small hole in the brass ferrule to lubricate the propeller shaft. 7. Reverse the previous steps to reassemble the flex drive in the motor. You will need to rotate the parts slightly so they key back together correctly during assembly.
Checking the Steering Setscrews It may be necessary to tighten the setscrews attaching the steering arm and shaft to the motor mount if your boat is proving difficult to trim or the steering is sloppy. To access the setscrews you will need to remove the motor from the mount. 1. Use a 3mm hex wrench and 7mm open end wrench to remove the two bolts that attach the motor to the mount. 2. Use a 1.5mm hex wrench to tighten the setscrews securing the motor mount to the steering shaft.
