Lubrication
It is important to lubricate the flex shaft of the
Formula Hydro with silicone cable grease after
every two hours of operation. Do not forget to
do this or flex shaft damage can occur. You can
purchase this silicone grease at your local hobby
store (PRB0100 or PRB0101). To lubricate the
drive shaft, follow these simple instructions.
m 1. Carefully note how the drive shaft and prop
are presently installed. This is important so
that when you have finished lubricating the
drive shaft, you can correctly re-install it.
m 2. Loosen and remove the 1.5mm setscrew
that holds the propeller shaft. Remove the
propeller and shaft from the aluminum strut.
m 3. Insert a hex driver into the hole located on
the flywheel to lock the crankshaft in place. Then
use an 10mm wrench to loosen the collet nut.
