The new Volt 4 has a very simplified assembly process for the user. It is important to read
through this section carefully and follow the assembly procedure listed below to prevent
damage to any parts.
Step 1 - Assembly of propeller and prop guard.
Step 2 - Attachment of efoil to the board.
Step 3 - Assembly of wing to the efoil.
Tools Required: Hex Key, Spacers, M6 screws x1, M6 washer x1, M5 screws x4, M5 washers x4
This section is broken down into three subsections:
1. Placing the spacers on your motor.
2. Attaching the Prop guard to your efoil.
3. Attaching the propeller to your efoil.
1- Assembly of propeller and prop guard
IMPORTANT
When assembling the prop guard and propeller ensure your efoil is disconnected from the
main battery power to prevent serious injuries.

There are guide points on the spacers as shown in the figure above. Place both spacers
flat on top of each other with guide points vertical and in the opposite direction of each
other.
Note: Rotating the spacers in the opposite directions changes angle of the stabilizer wing
and the pitching power of the efoil.
2. Ensure the spacers are aligned together as one, place it flush on the motor head as
shown in the figure. The spacer must be placed vertically with the guide points opposite to
each other.
PLACEMENT OF SPACERS ON YOUR MOTOR
1. The spacers are placed flat between the motor of your efoil and the prop guard.
These spacers have a
tiny groove that act a
guide point.
Guides must
be opposite to
each other.

1 . On the prop guard, there is an arrow that indicates the positioning on the efoil (refer to
figure 1). After the spacer has been placed on the motor, place the prop guard with the
arrow pointing upward in the same direction as the mast (refer to figure 2).
2. Align the prop guard as depicted in figure 2. Ensure the stabilizer is parallel to the floor
and the bar of the prop guard aligns vertically with the mast. Once the prop guard is
aligned, screw it in place with the screws provided.
Your kit is provided with 4 screws and washers. Use these to attach the prop guard, place
them with the 5mm washers on opposite screw slots.
Note: It is crucial that the screws are secured tightly on the prop guard at all times to
ensure long term use of your efoil.

IMPORTANT: The images in this section are only to provide a clear view of the propeller
assembly. DO NOT assemble the propeller without the prop guard at any instance on your
foil.
1. Place the propeller pin provided into the motor shaft and rotate the shaft so that the pin
is horizontal to the floor. This position will help place the propeller with ease.
2. Behind the propeller, there are pin slots to engage the propeller pin. If there is sufficient
distance between the prop guard and the propeller pin, engage the propeller on the
deeper pin slot. If there is insufficient distance, engage the propeller in the shallow pin
position.

3. Place the propeller in alignment with the pin and push in place. The pin must be fully
engaged with the propeller.
IMPORTANT
When placing the propeller to engage with the pin ensure the propeller slot aligns perfectly
with the pin as once in place it may prove to be difficult to remove. If you do find yourself in
the above situation, use a soft tool to remove the propeller from the motor shaft, re-align the
propeller and move into place again.

After instructions in Section I, II and III are completed, the final assembly of your efoil will
follow as below:
Once the prop guard is attached to the efoil and the propeller is attached to the motor
shaft with the pin engaged, place the washer first followed by the screw. Lock the propeller
in place using an allen key.
The base of the propeller must NOT touch the base of the prop guard. If the propeller
rotates with the motor freely and without any rubbing or metal scratching, it indicates a
correct assembly and fitment. This motion can be tested by hand. Ensure the efoil is not
powered on at any instance during the assembly.
