INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING
WARNING! Make sure the Power Switch of the R/C Electric Racing Boat is in its
“OFF” position and it is unplugged from its electrical outlet before performing any
inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
BEFORE EACH USE,1. inspect the general condition. Check for loose screws,
misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, damaged electri-
cal wiring, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation. If abnormal
noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use. Do not
use damaged equipment.
AFTER EACH USE, 2. inspect the Racing Boat’s transmission shaft and bearing for
water. Water may accumulate after each use, resulting in rust or blocked trans-
mission shaft. Dry the transmission shaft by taking the propeller down, unscrew-
ing and removing the shaft struts and drying the shaft and strut bearings. Adding
lubricant to the shaft and bearings will also help prevent rust. Once done, reinstall
all pieces.
