Planning Considerations and Precautions
EN
• Do not install the thruster in a position where you need to cut a stiffener/ stringer/ support for the hull integrity without checking with the boat
builder this can be done safely.
• The motor, its components, contacts/ plugs or other joints in the control cables must be mounted so they will remain dry at all times.
• We advise painting the gear house and propellers with anti-fouling. (NB: Do not paint the anodes, sealing, rubber fi ttings or propeller shafts)
• Do not fi nish the inside of the tunnel with a layer of gel-coat/ topcoat or similar. There is only room for a thin coat of primer and two layers of
anti-fouling between the tunnel and the propellers.
• Keep installation within advised measurements. The entire surface is hard coated seawater resistant aluminium. Do not damage or penetrate the
coat.
• Install the oil tank higher than the pumps to ensure enough gravity feed and pressure for feed ports. (NB: The height of oil levels in the hydraulic
tank should be higher than the connected hydraulic pumps.)
• Find a suitable location for the hydraulic tank installation for future maintenance accessibility. There must be enough space around the oil tank to
change fi lters, fi ll oil and inspect gauges and indicators.

It is the installers responsibility
When installing Sleipner equipment follow the outlined regulations/ classifi cation rules (electrical/ mechanical) according to
international or special national regulations. Instructions in this guide cannot be guaranteed to comply with global electric/
mechanic regulations/ classifi cation rules.
Follow all health and safety laws in accordance with their local outlined regulations/ classifi cation rules.
Before installation, it is important that the installer reads this guide to ensure necessary acquaintance with the product.
The recommendations made in this manual are guidelines ONLY, and Sleipner Motor AS (Sleipner) strongly recommend that before
installation, advice is obtained from a naval architect familiar with the particular vessel and regulations/ classifi cations.
This manual is intended to support educated/ experienced staff and is therefore not suffi cient in all details for professional
installation. (NB: These instructions are only general instruction. If you are not skilled to do this work, please contact professional
installers for assistance.)
All electrical work must be done by a licensed professional.
Faulty installation of Sleipner products will render all warranty given by Sleipner Motor AS void. MC_0038

Hydraulic Thruster Installation Considerations and Precautions
EN
Before installation, The installer must read this guide to ensure necessary acquaintance with this product.
• If the height of the room you are installing the Side-Power is limited, it can be installed horizontally or at any angle in-between.
• The motor must be handled with care. Do not rest on the drive shaft.
If an original Side-Power hydraulic system is NOT installed, please ensure the following:
• Install an oil fi lter to keep the oil clean.
• Fit an oil cooler or use an oil tank to ensure the maximum oil temperature is 43 - 50 degrees Celsius.
• Hydraulic thrusters are supplied with hydraulic motors only.
• The installed hydraulic system is the responsibility of the fi tter/ installer and must be within the limitations outlined in this manual to ensure no
damage is caused to the thruster.
• The hydraulic valve must have flow and pressure limits that are either set within or can be adjusted to the limits of the thrusters capability.
• We strongly advise that a shock valve is fi tted and set to 10% - 15% above the chosen maximum pressure set in the valve. This will prevent the
system from being damaged if the propellers are blocked for any reason.
• It is required that a device is installed to ensure that the drive direction cannot be suddenly changed, as this can severely damage the gear house.
(NB: By adding an electronic time-lapse/delay safety on the electric control system or by using a valve that has this type of protection built
in will prevent this issue. *The required time delay is 1 second.)
IMPORTANT
If installing S-link products DO NOT connect any other control equipment to the S-link controlled products except Sleipner original S-link
products or via a Sleipner supplied interface product made for interfacing with other controls. Any attempt to directly control or at all connect
into the S-link control system without the designated and approved interface will render all warranties and responsibilities for the complete
line of Sleipner products connected void and null. If you are interfacing by agreement with Sleipner and through a designated SLeipner
supplied interface, you are still required to also install at least one original Sleipner control panel to enable effi cient troubleshooting if
necessary. MC_0265
