MARCH 2008
SX series thrusters
External sternthuster assembly
Sidepower now offers a complete external sternthruster assembly.
This sternthruster option is the perfect choice for boats where the inside
conguration of the boats stern makes a standard thruster installation
impractical.When tted with the optional cowls, the sternthuster assembly
is perfect for boats with twin stern drives. The special cowls enables good
performance by diverting the waterow past the stern drive legs which
normally blocks the waterow and the thrust.
Product features
• Pre-assembled thruster unit in a rugged GRP casing for external installation.
• Waterproof and ignition protected, can be installed in gasoline powered
boats.
• Requires only small holes in the boat’s transom for power/control cables and
mounting.
• Comes in two sizes, SX80/185T and SX100/185T, performance and features
as the corresponding SE series thrusters*
• Easy installation.
• Serviceablewhenboatislifted(rettedwithnewO-ringseal).

Plassering av enheten
Positioning the thruster
1. Find the most forward position where thruster unit will t, and the
top of the deployed thruster tunnel is at min. 185mm. Remove coun-
termould on inside of hull, with min. 20 cm clearence to all sides of the
thruster unit to give room for moulding.
Place unit where intended, take necessary measurements to check
that a complete unit with motor, relay cover and actuator cover ts in
the designated space.
2. Find centerline of boat and centerline of thuster unit and mark ac-
cordingly.
Mark guideline/points for longitudinal orientation of thruster unit.
3. Measure distance from hull to lower part of the straight longitudinal
of thruster unit, please observe that distance can vary between the
front and aft end wall.
Use measurement from back part to draw rear cut line, and front
measurement to draw front cut line. The straight longitudinal edges of
unit must not be cut (reference point for hull mounting)
4. Position unit to center marks and longitudinal guidelines/marks.
1. Finn den fremste posisjonen hvor enheten får plass, og slik at
toppen på den utfelte thrustertunnellen havner minst 185mm under
vannlinjen. Fjern så evt. innerskrog med minst 10 cm klaring rundt
hele enheten for å få plass til innstøping.
Plasser enheten der du mener den skal stå, mål og se til at det er
plass til en komplett enhet der med motor, relé deksel og deksel over
aktuator.
2. Finn senter i båten og merk dette samt senter på enheten og merk
også dette i begge ender av enheten.
Merk også på en hjelpelinje/punkt for senere orientering av enheten i
lengderetning.
3. Mål fra skroget og opp til nedre del av den rette langsgående
kanten på enheten, merk at det kan være forskjellig mål foran og bak.
Bruk målet bak for merking av kutt linje bak, respektivt målet foran
for kutt linje foran. Bruk målet og trekk en linje langs bakre respektive
foran på enheten. Det skal ikke kuttes noe på de langsgående kantene
på enhetens kasse, de er på riktig avstand og skal være referanse for
montering på skroget.
4. Plasser enhet tilbake på sentermerker, og mot hjelpelinjen/punktet i
lengderetningen.

Cutting out the hatch
Marker omrisset av enheten før du tar den ut igjen.
5. Trekk en linje 12mm foran den bakre kanten av omrisset og du har
den bakre kuttlinjen for luken.
Tegn opp omrisset av luken i henhold til måltegning, luke på side
12 (sidekanter 115mm til hver side av senterlinjen, fremre kutt linje
325mm fremover fra bakre kuttlinje).
Bruk bakre kuttlinje og senterlinje i båten som utgangspunkt for luke-
malen (side 13) og projiser og bor de re hullene for å feste skrogde-
len til thrusteren
6. Luken kuttes ut med 45 graders vinkel utover, slik at åpningen blir
størst på utsiden av skroget. Luken må kuttes ut nøye, med dertil
egnet verktøy
OBS. Før alle kutt er utført anbefales det å tape fast luken slik at
den ikke faller ut når kuttene er utført.
Når du har kuttet ferdig skal du ha en pen luke med et tilhørende pent
hull. Forsegl kantene på luke og skrog med epoxy og glassbercutting
for å fylle igjen tykkelsen etter kuttet.
Draw outline of complete unit circumference with marker before
removing unit
5. Draw a line 12 mm in front of the rear end of unit outline, this marks
the aft cut line for the hull.
Draw outline of hatch according to measurement drawing on page 12
( hatch sides 115mm each side of centerline, front cut line 325mm
from aft cut line).
Align hatch drilling template (page 13) with centerline and aft cutline
and mark and drill the four holes used to secure hatch to mechanism.
6. Use appropriate tool and cut out the hatch with a 45 degree chamfer
outwards from centre of hatch.
NOTE: Secure hatch with duct tape or similar before completing
all cuts, to prevent that the hatch drops and get damaged
When done cutting, you have the hatch to be tted to the retract mech-
anism. Fill edges of hatch and hull with epoxy/cutting to compensate
for thickness of cut.

7. Place unit according to marks and check that hull opening is cor-
rectly placed and is of correct size.
Loosen actuator from front mounting point and carefully swing the
retracting unit out of hull (people outside hull recommended to control
moving part of thruster)
Mount the hatch to the retract mechanism, fold mechanism back into
hull, and remount actuator.
With hach and actuator mounted, use wedges/shims in each corner of
thruster grp casing to make the hatch t tight in the opening. The hatch
should be parallel with the hull on all edges, and the gap between
hatch and hull should be equal on all four sides.
When the casing is secured with the hatch in the correct place with
wedges/shims, mould in the casing.
Sleipner Motor AS recomends to use resin and berglass cutting
mixed to a paste to be used between casing and hull before moulding/
laminating the casing to the hull - to avoid resin to ow into the casing,
and to avoid the risk of getting the hatch stuck to the opening.
7. Sett deretter enheten på plass over hullet, og kontroller at hullet er
korrekt og i riktig størrelse.
Ta av aktuator i fremre innfesting og sving retracten forsiktig ut av
skroget. Til denne jobben anbefales det at du har en hjelper på utsiden
av skroget for å ta imot den utsvingbare delen på trusteren.
Deretter skrus luken på plass på bunnrammen, og foldes inn og aktua-
tor monteres på igjen.
Det er en fordel å se til at luken har en jevn tykkelse over det hele før
den skrus fast, dette for en penest og best mulig installasjon.
Når luke og aktuator er montert, shimses / kiles kassen i hvert hjørne
innvendig opp slik at luken passer perfekt i hullet.
Luken skal ligge parallelt med skroget rundt og glippen mellom luke og
skrog skal være lik hele veien rundt.
Når det er gjort, lamineres enheten fast.
Sleipner Motor AS anbefaler å bruke f. eks. epoxy og glassberkut-
ting blandet til en fast masse som legges mellom enheten og skrog
før laminering. Dette for å unngå at det renner epoxy inn i enheten og
limer igjen luke til skrog.

8. The unit is now almost ready to be moulded to the hull (Epoxy and
WR - woven rowing - recommended) Before starting to grind the hull
and thuster casing, please cover thuster unit and inside of boat careful-
ly. (Note, if the hull has a sandwich construction, all core material must
be removed, and be rebuilt with WR by qualied personel)
Begin grinding from inside of line drawn around thuster unit inside
hull, starting with a depth of 2/3 hull thickness moving outwards with
decreasing depth.
Grind thruster casing in similar manner, deepest on lower edge, de-
creasing upwards.
Grind with power tool or by hand on inside of casing and inside of
marking line on hull to accommodate 2-3 layers of WR
9. After grinding and cleaning, place unit in nal location and prepare
for moulding. Mould the unit thoroughly to the inside of hull and from
outside into casing

8. Nå er enheten klar for laminering (Sleipner Motor AS anbefaler
epoxy og WR(vevd matte) glassber matte). Før du starter med å slipe
i skrog og glassberkassen på enheten må du være nøye med og
maskere alt i båten og på enheten. (NB; Er skroget av sandwich type,
må alt av kjernemateriale fjernes helt ut til det ytre skinnet av skrog, for
så å bygges opp igjen med WR glassber matte)
Slipingen starter på innsiden av streken som ble trukket rundt enheten
på innsiden av skroget, og igjennom 2/3 av skroget og mindre og
mindre lengre ut til du er i null.
Det samme gjøres på glassber kassen på enheten, slip mest på
nedre kant og mindre oppover kasse.
Slip også med verktøy eller for hånd på innsiden av glassber kassen
på enheten og på innsiden av streken på skrog, dette for og få heft til
to-tre lag med glassber matte her også.
9. Etter sliping og grundig rengjøring plasseres enheten på plass,
og du er nå klar for laminering. Enheten lamineres fast grundig på
innsiden av skroget, og på utsiden av skroget og inn i kassen.

Montering av elektromotor
N
Fitting the electromotor
GB
1. Remove the 4 bolts in the motor bracket.
2. Place the motor gently on the motor bracket. Be careful, the motor is
heavy! Ensure that key on axle and keyway in one-piece coupling are
aligned. Ensure that you are placing the motor so that the cable termi-
nals on it are available for electric installation later.
3. Fasten the motor to the bracket with the 4 bolts and tighten them.
4. Check if the springs for the brushes sit correctly on the brushes
(see through the metal web around the top of the electromotor).
5. Check the drive system by turning the propeller, it will be a little
hard to turn (because of the gear reduction and the motor), but you
should easily be able to turn it by hand.
6. Remove solenoid cover and plug the cable from the actuators and
sensors to the unoccupied plug in the controlbox located underneath
the solenoids. Put cover back in place.
End-stop Micro-Switch adjustment
1. Remove actuator mechanism cover
2. Close retract mechanism manually, and hold it in the closed position
3. Losen the screws on the end stop microswitch
4. Adjust microswitch so that it engages and fasten screws, to ensure
that the correct retract end position is dened
NB! Paint the gearhouse and propeller with antifouling for propel-
lers to prevent growth of barnacles or similar which would reduce the
performance dramatically. Do not paint the propeller shaft, the zincan-
odes or the end face of the gearhouse.
NB! Do not run the thruster for more than very short bursts without
being in the water.
NB! If the boat is still being built when the electromotor is installed, it
must be covered up to avoid dust from the building going into the mo-
tor and the solenoids. This cover must be removed before the thruster
is being used.
1. Fjern de 4 boltene i motorbraketten.
2. Plasser motoren på braketten. Plasser motoren slik at releene er
tilgjengelige for tilkobling senere. Ta hensyn til at motoren er tung når
den bæres og håndteres.
Sjekk at kilespor i gummikobling og kile på aksel er på linje.
3. Fest motoren til braketten med de re boltene.
4. Sjekk at børstefjærene sitter korrekt på børstene (gjøres ved å se
gjennom gitteret på siden av motoren).
5. Test installasjonen ved å dreie på propellen. Det vil være motstand
pga. girutveksling og motor, men det skal enkelt la seg gjøre å dreie
propellen for hånd.
6. Ta av reledekslet og plugg in ledningen fra aktuator og sensorer til den
ledige kontakten på kontrollboksen under hovedreleene. Sett dekslet
tilbake på plass.
Justering av mikrobryter for endestopp
1. Ta av dekslet over aktuatormekanismen
2. Steng retract-mekanismen manuelt og hold den i lukket posisjon
3. Løsne skruene på mikrobryteren for endestopp
4. Juster mikrobryteren slik at den akkurat utløses og fest skruene for å
denere den korrekte stillingen for en innfelt thruster
NB ! Påfør bunnstoff på girhus og propell for å unngå vekst som kan virke
sterkt hemmende på thrusterens effekt. Sinkanoder propellaksling og
tetninger skal ikke stoffes.
NB ! Thrusteren må kun kjøres i meget korte perioder når den ligger på
land.
NB ! Hvis båten fortsatt er under bygging når thrusteren blir montert må
motoren dekkes til for å unngå at støv og lignende trenger inn i girhus og
elektromotor. Dekket må fjernes før motoren tas i bruk.

•Forklaring til elektrisk tabell
- Kabellengder tilsvarer + kabelen, og - kabelen (Frem og tilbake).
- Min. batterikap. som kaldstartkapasitet (CCA), ikke Ampere.
- Bruk trege sikringer for å forebygge spenningsfall.
•Det er viktig å bruke kabler som er store nok, og et batteri med god ka-
ldstartkapasitet for å drive thrusteren. Det er Volten som kommer frem
til motoren under kjøring som bestemmer turtallet til motoren og dermed
også skyvekraften. Vær vennlig og jamfør listen over for minimum
anbefalte kabel, og batteristørrelse.
•En hovedstrømbryter (*C) som ikke medfører stor spenningsfall MÅ
installeres på thrusterens plusskabel slik at det er mulig å skru av
strømmen til thruster uavhengig av resten av det elektriske systemet,
når man ikke er om bord, eller i et nødstilfelle. Bryteren bør plasseres
på et tilgjengelig sted, og båtens instruksmanual må ta for seg at denne
skal skrus av slik som de andre hovedbrytere.
•Det må installeres sikring på pluss strømkabelen for å beskytte mot
kortslutning av hovedstrømkablene. Sikringen bør være av høy kvalitet,
noe som vanligvis betyr at de er fysisk store, for å unngå spenningsfall
som ofte er resultatet av å bruke mindre, enklere sikringer. Sikringen
skal være en treg type som tåler amper trekket til elektromotoren i
minimum 5 min.
•Kabelendene kan må påmonteres terminaler og disse må isoleres mot
alt som ikke er riktig kontaktpunkt.
•Det er viktig att kabelsko trekkes korrekt fast på koblingsbolt. Kontra
mutter på koblingsbolt må holdes fast ved tiltrekking (Fig. 2).
Minus kabelen (*A) tilkobles A1 (-) terminalen.
Pluss kabelen (*B) tilkobles "+" terminalen.

• Explanation of electrical table
- All cable lengths are the total of + and - (to and from).
- Battery size is stated as minimum cold crank capacity, not Ah.
- Use slow fuse rated to hold stated Amp-Draw for min. 5 minutes.
• It is important that you use a good cable size and batteries with a
high cranking capacity to feed the thruster, because it is the actual
voltage at the motor while running the thruster that decides the
output rpm of the motor and thereby the actual thrust. Please see
the list below for advised min. sizes of cables and batteries. You can
of course use larger cables for even better results.
• A main switch (*C) that can take the load without noticeable voltage
drop MUST be installed in the main positive lead so the power for the
thruster can be turned off independent of the rest when not on board
or in emergencies. This should be placed in an easy accessible
place and the boats instructions should inform that this should be
turned off like the boat’s other main switches.
• We also advice to install a fuse (*D) in the positive lead for protection
against short circuiting of the main cables. This fuse should be of a
adequate quality which normally means that it is physically large as
these have less voltage drop than the simple / small ones. It should
be of the slow type and sized to take the amperage draw for at least
5 minutes.
• The cable ends must be tted with terminals and these must be well
isolated against contact with anything but the proper connection
point.
• Terminals must be properly tightened. Secure/hold inner nut when
tightening (Fig. 2). Tighten with max: 15 Nm/11lb/ft.The negative/
minus cable (*A) connects to the A1 (-) terminal. The positive/plus
cable (*B) connects to the “+” terminal: ø10mm / 3/8"
bolt. Tighten with 15 Nm/11lb/ft.
NB! Very important to check the following with mainswitch
in off-position:
After all electrical connections have been completed check with an
ohm meter that there is no electrical connection between electro-
motor body and positive terminal on the motor and between the
electromotor body and the negative (A1) terminal on the motor.
If you feel unsure on how to perform this check, contact skilled
personnel for guidance.

» Etterstram boltene som holder girhuset sammen med braketten ved
første på-land servicen med oppgitt moment (s. 9).
» Hold propellen og girhuset fritt for algevekst ved å påføre bunnstoff før
hver sesong.
PS ! Sinkanoder, tetninger og propellaksel skal ikke påføres
bunnstoff, pass på så det ikke kommer bunnstoff i gjenge-
sporene til propellmutteren.
» Skift sinkanode før hver sesong, eller når ca. halvparten av sink-
anoden har tæret bort. Bruk Locktite eller lignende på skruen til
sinkanoden for at den ikke skal falle av. Ta i betraktning at under noen
vannforhold er det nødvendig å montere en ekstra sink-anode for å
være sikker på at de skal vare i hele perioden mellom vedlikehold. Ta
kontakt med din forhandler for informasjon om hvordan å gjøre dette.
» Som en del av det periodiske vedlikeholdet av din båt, og før hver
sesong må følgende ting sjekkes:
• Propellen sitter godt festet.
• Boltene som holder elektromotoren til braketten sitter.
• At universalleddet i retract-mekansimen er smurt
• Skottet der baugpropellen er montert skal være rent, og tørt. Hvis det
er vann i skottet må lekkasjen nnes og tettes.
• Alle elektriske tilkoblingspunkter er rene, og godt festet.
• Pass på at batteriene er i god stand slik at de kan gi høy spenning til
trusteren. Redusert spenning vil gi redusert effekt på trusteren.
» Retighten the bolts holding the gearhouse to the motor bracket
during the rst on-land service with the specied bolt tightening
force (see page 9).
» Keep the propeller and gearhouse clean from growth by painting
with antifouling before every season.
PS! The zinc anode, sealing and propeller shafts must absolutely
not be painted. Be careful that you don’t ll paint in the “tracks”
in the gearhouse that the propeller hub moves in.
» Change the zinc anode before every season, or when about half
the anode is gone. Always use a sealant on the screw holding the
zincanode to ensure that it does not fall off. Please observe that in
some waterconditions it can be necessary to install an extra
zincanode to ensure that it lasts for the whole period between
regular service lifts of the boat. Consult your dealer for information
on how to do this.
» As a part of the seasonal service of your boat, and before every
season, always check that:
• The propeller is securely fastened
• The bolts holding the electric motor to the motor bracket are
fastened correctly.
• The universal joint in the retract mechanism is lubricated
• The area where the thruster is installed is clean and dry. If there
are signs of water you must try to nd the source and eliminate it.
• All electrical connections are clean and fastened rmly.
• Make sure that your batteries are in a good condition so that the
thruster gets a good voltage. Old or bad batteries will give a
reduced performance from the thruster.

Wiring of S-link system
Explaining S-link
S-link is a ”CanBus” based control system
with full intelligent communication
between all units in the system, much like
a computer network.
Main advantages include:
- Round, compact and waterproof plugs with
unique keying to avoid faulty hookup
- Unlimited number of commands or information
transfer on a single cable
- Proprietary Sleipner commands, but built 100%
on NMEA 2000 standard

S-link planning & precautions
Routing the Backbone:
Plan routing of the backbone so that lenght of spur cables will be kept at
a minimum.
Avoid routing the S-link cables close to equipment that might cause
interference to the S-link signals, such as radio transmitter equipment,
antennas, high voltage cables etc.
The backbone MUST be terminated in each end with the 6 1327 End
Terminator.
Spur cables:
Spur cables can be left unterminated (i.e. routing can be prepared for
future additional equipment), make sure to protect open connectors from
water and moisture to avoid corrosion in connector .
Ruting av Backbone:
Planlegg leggingen av “backbone”-kabelen slik at lengdene på “spur”-ka-
blene blir kortest mulig.
Unngå å legge S-link kabelene i nærheten av ledninger eller utstyr som
kan skape forstyrrelser for S-link signalene, slik som radiosendere, anten-
ner, høyspentkabler etc.
“Backbone”-kabelen MÅ termineres i begge ender med 6 1327 “Termina-
torplugg”
Spur kabler:
“Spur”-kabler kan kobles til “backbone”-kabelen uten å termineres (f.eks
for klargjøring av fremtidig tilleggsutstyr), sørg for for å beskytte de åpne
kontaktene fra fukt for å forhindre korrosjon i kontakten.

Important user precautions
GB
• Forviss deg om at du kjenner plasseringen av hovedstrømsbryteren
til baugtrusteren, som kutter all strøm til trusteren, så trusteren kan
skrus av i nødstilfelle.
• Før berøring av noen del av trusteren må alltid strømmen skrus av.
En uønsket start kan volde stor fysisk skade.
• Skru alltid av kontrollpanelet etter bruk.
• Den maksimale sammenhengende kjøretiden for en elektrisk truster
er ca. 3 min. - da vil en føler automatisk skru av motoren når den
når en viss temperatur. Dette må tas i betraktning når en manøver
planlegges.
• Dette betyr at ved manøvere som tar lang tid vil ikke trusteren kunne
brukes hele kontinuerlig. Ved manøvere som tar lang tid kan man
bruke trusteren i ca 10 % av tiden, avhengig av temperaturen i van-
net.
• Bruk aldri trusteren når noen er i vannet, trusteren vil trekke gjen-
stander til seg og kontakt med propellen vil volde alvorlig skade.
• Kjør aldri trusteren i mer enn 1 sek. når båten er på land. Uten mot-
stand fra vannet vil thrusteren nå ødeleggende turtall svært fort.
• Hvis thrusterne stopper å gi skyvekraft mens motoren er i gang, er
det trolig oppstått problemer i girsystemet. Stopp umiddelbart å kjøre
motoren, og skru den av. Uten motstand fra vannet vil thrusteren nå
ødelegende turtall svært fort.
• Når man forlater båten skal alltid hovedstrømsbryteren slås av.
• Vi anbefaler å ha motoren i gang når trusteren kjøres. Da vil bat-
terien vedlikeholdes, og det vil være høyere spenning til elektromo-
toren. Høyere spenning gir høyere turtall og bedre ytelse.
• Ytelsen til en baugtruster avhenger av hvilken spenning motoren
mottar under kjøring. Kapasiteten til batterier avtar etter hvert som
de blir eldre, og dermed også ytelsen til trusteren. Ved å installere
nye batterier vil trusteren yte maksimalt igjen.
• Kun en kontroll skal brukes av gangen, hvis to kontroller brukes
motsatt vei vil trusteren stoppe automatisk. Hvis to paneler opereres
samme vei vil ikke dette skje.
• Hvis trusteren ikke fungerer tilfredsstillende må feilen lokaliseres
og rettes så snart som mulig, for at ikke trusteren skal ta ytterligere
skade, skru av hovestrømsbryteren hvis feilen er av elektrisk art.
Viktige brukerforbehold
N
• Ensure that you know the location of the main battery switch that
disconnects the thruster from all power sources (batteries) so that
the thruster can be turned off in case of a malfunction.
• Always turn the main power switch off before touching any part of
the thruster, as an incidental start while touching moving parts can
cause serious injuries.
• Always turn the control device off when the thruster is not in use.
• The maximum continous usage time of the electrical thruster is
approximately 3 minutes. The electromotor has a built in thermal
cut-off switch that will shut off the electromotor if it is overheating
and re-engage it when it has cooled down some. This should be
considered when planning your maneuvering.
• This also means that the thruster will limit its total running time per
time period so that you can not count on the thruster to hold you
in a current and side wind for extensive time periods. Depending
on the surrounding temperatures etc. the thruster will be able to
run approximately 10 % of the time.
• Never use a thruster close to somebody in the water, as the
thruster will draw objects close by into the tunnel and contact with
the rotating propellers will cause serious injuries.
• With the boat on land, only run the thruster for a fraction of a
second, as without resistance it will accelerate very fast to a
damaging rpm. Also, while the thruster is in air, make sure that the
propellers have come to a complete stop before performing a
directions change of the thruster, as it might cause damage to the
thruster.
• If the thruster stops giving thrust while the electromotor is running,
chances are that there is a problem in the drive-system. You must
then immediately stop trying to run it, and turn it off, as running the
electromotor for more than a few seconds without resistance from
the propeller, can cause serious damage to the electromotor.
• When leaving the boat always turn off the main power switch for
the thruster.
• We advice to always keep the main engine(s) running while using a
thruster. This will keep the batteries in a good charge condition. This
will also give better performance to the thruster, as a higher voltage
at the thruster results in a higher torque (power) in the electromotor.
• Please note that the performance of a thruster strongly depends on
the voltage available at the electromotor. This voltage will decrease
by time because aging batteries have a reduction of capacity. By
installing new batteries the effect of the thruster should be back at
the original level.
• Make sure that only one control is used at the same time, if two
panels are operated in opposite directions at the same time the
thruster will not run at all. If they are operated in the same direction
the thruster will run in this direction.
• If the thruster is not performing or functioning as usual, the cause for
this must be found and corrected as soon as possible so to avoid
causing any other or further damage to the equipment. You must
also turn off the main battery switch immediately in case the
problem is of electric origin.
• Never store anything (e.g. equipment, sails, ropes etc.) in the
same compartment as the thruster. When the thruster runs for
a longer period it will get hot and will cause damage.

Before seeking assistance at the help desk of your Sidepower dealer/distributor please perform these tests and make notes of
all measurements to ensure that they have as much information as possible to work on.
NB! All check points and solutions must be carried out after consulting the relevant information elsewhere in this manual to under-
stand how the system is intended to work. If you are unable to understand what to check, you must consult a professional.
Troubleshooting
GB
Solution
Check the exible coupling/shear pin and the motor installation to ensure correct con-
nection of the exible coupling before re-tting the electromotor.
Re-fasten or replace the propeller and/or key/drive pin.
In case of a failure inside the gearhouse, we advice to get a replacement gear-house
instead of attempting to repear the internal gear and bearing system.
If wrong, contact your dealer or distributor to obtain parts with the correct voltage.
The no load voltage should be:
12V system =12,7V / 24V system = 25,4 V. If below 12,3V / 24,6V your batteries are
not in a good charge state or worn out and must be recharged or replaced before trying
to run the thruster.
If less than 8,5V at the thruster the voltage is to low for the thruster to operate correctly.
Find and correct the reason for this low voltage which will probably be one or more of
these points: main battery cable sizes and connections, battery size and condition, fuse
and main power switch performance.
If the thruster runs in both directions, try the same in the connector that goes into the
back of the control panel. If it also works in this position, check the contact and wires
on the back of the panel and try to engage this again by pushing both ON buttons
simultaneously. If the panel does not turn on (see control light), measure the voltage
between the Red and the Black in the contact going into the thruster. If the voltage is
good, chances are that the panel is not working.
If it works by the thruster, and not by the panel there is a bad contact or a broken lead
the control cables between these two test points.
Measure that you have the correct voltage between the Red (+) and all the other col-
ours in the contact. If you do not get a reading.
Between main minus (A1 on motor) and the blue and the grey wire connected to the
sides of the main solenoids you should have the same voltage as between
the main battery cables on the thruster. If not, check that the internal wiring on the so-
lenoid is ok and measure that there is contact through the magnetising spools of each
side of the solenoid (measure between the red and blue on one side, and red and grey
on the other side with an Ohm meter.). If there is no
contact between these, the solenoid is broken and needs replacing.
If less than 10,5 V / 21V the thruster will not perform at specied effect.
If one or more brushes are loose/has no tension from the brush-spring, the perfor-
mance will be low.
If there is growth in the tunnel, this will disturb/block the waterow and especially bar-
nacles on the propeller will greatly reduce performance.
Re-charge battery(ies), if this is not sufcient, replace battery(ies).
Check for bad cable connections, if necessary tighten/re-adjust connections.
Check cable size in accordance to manual.
Shut off thruster main switch, tap slightly on the solenoid to see if it will release. Turn
on thruster main switch. If solenoid is still in lock-in mode, replace solenoid.
Check
If the exible coupling between the motor and driveshaft is
not tted correct inside the boat.
Are the propellers in the tunnel fastened correctly on the
prop-shaft (key/drive pin present)
With the motor removed, turn the driveshaft from inside
the boat to feel if the gears are engaging and turning the
prop-shaft.
Check that the voltage of the electromotor is correct for
your installation by their labels.
Check the voltage at the thruster between main minus input
(A1 on motor) and main plus input point:
Check the voltage at the thruster while you are trying to
run it. Keep main engine(s) running to have continous
charge to the batteries.
If the main solenoids on the thruster are not even trying to
engage (clicking) they are probably not getting a "run" sig-
nal from the control system. Try to run the thruster without
the panel by directly connecting the red and the blue or the
red and the grey wires in the controlcable contact coming
from the thruster.
If the thruster does not run at all, or only in one direction in
the above tests, check the internal wiring on the thruster
motor, solenoids and electronic motor inter-face box to be
in accordance with the wiring diagram and ensure that all
connections are clean and tight.
Check voltage at thruster when running.
Check that all the brush-springs sits correctly on the brus-
hes in the electromotor.
Check that the propeller, gearhouse and tunnel is free
from growth/barnacles etc.
Solenoid apping, most probable cause:
low voltage.
Solenoid lock-in, auto stop of thruster, auto retry every 10
seconds.
» The electromotor runs, but there is no thrust.
» The thruster does not start at all or works only in one direction.
» The thruster has an unexpected low performance.
» The thruster runs for approximately 0,5 seconds every 4 seconds.
» The thruster runs for approximately 0,5 seconds every 10 seconds.
