GB Planning and important precautions Prior to installation, it is important that the installer reads this guide to ensure necessary acquaintance with this product. * The thruster must NOT be installed in compartments that require ignition proof electric equipment. If necessary, make a seperate compartment. * The electromotor will generate some carbon dust so that any storage compartment must be separated from the thruster to prevent the stored items from becoming dusty/dirty.

Ø Ø GB Positioning of the tunnel/thruster The Thruster should be as far forward as possible (Fig. 1) Because of the leverage effect around the boats pivot point, it is very important for the thrusters actual effect in the boat to get it as far for-ward as possible.
Fig. 2 Fig. 1 R = 0,1 x D (10%) D R = 0,1 x D (10%) � ☺ Fig. 4 Fig. 3 GB Tunnel ends D Formgebung der Tunnelenden Rounded tunnel ends will maximize thrust and minimize noise. Abgerundete Tunnelenden erhöhen die Schubkraft und reduzieren das Geräuschniveau. We recommend to round the tunnel connection to the hull-side as much as possible. The optimum rounding has a radius of 10% of the tunnels diameter. Der Bereich Tunnelende / Außenseite des Rumpfes ist soweit möglich abzurunden.
Fig. 1 Fig. 2 � GB Fig. 3 ☺ Prevent drag from tunnel D ☺ Optimaler Strömungsverlauf am Rumpf A possible problem in sailboats or fast powerboats, is that they get a drag from the back face of the tunnel, as this becomes a “flat” area facing the water flow (Fig. 1). Segelboote und sehr schnelle Booten können gelegentlich durch auf die rückseitige Fläche des Tunnels auftreffendes Wasser gebremst werden (Fig. 1).
Fig. 1 ☺ Pos. A Pos. B � ☺ Min � GB Tunnel installation in sailboats D Installation in Segelbooten Many sailboats have a racing type hull which means that it is very flat bottomed and has a very shallow draft in the bow section. It is thereby very difficult not to say impossible to fit a tunnel thruster the usual way, atleast as far forward in the hull as a thruster should be (Fig. 1). Segelboote weisen häufig einen Rumpf in Rennform auf, was einen sehr flachen Rumpf im Bugbereich bedeutet.

These instructions are only general, and do not explain in any way the details of fibreglass work. Problems caused by faulty installation of the tunnel, are the installers full responsibility. Wir empfehlen, die Glasfiberarbeiten von einem Fachmann ausführen zu lassen. Dieses Handbuch beinhaltet nicht alle notwen-digen Details für diese Arbeit.

GB Electrical installation SP 285 TCi The SP 285 TCi is a 48V thruster and will therefore need some extra installation parts in a boat with a 24V electrical system. • Special serial / parallel switch box that provides safe 48V power to the thruster and takes care of charging the extra 24V battery bank while the thruster is not in use. PS ! The extra battery bank will be charged by the same charge source as the other (normal) battery bank that is connected to this system.

Oil-drain screw is tightened and the copper seal is present. The zinc-anode holding screws are tightened well with thread glue. Anti-fouling have been applied to the gearhouse and propeller but NOT on the zincanode or the gearhouse lid where the propeller is fastened. Oil tank is fitted above the waterline as required and filled with gearoil.
