    MAINTENANCE It is important to remove and relubricate the drive shaft after a day of running. Make sure the battery pack is un- plugged. To lubricate the cable you will need a1.5mm hex wrench, GrimRacer Speed Grease and some paper towels. Using a 1.5mm hex wrench, loosen the set screws holding the drive cable to the motor coupler.
  • Page 7 Leave about 1/16" [2mm] gap between the front of the drive dog and the back of the brass tube. Tighten the set screws to hold the drive shaft in place. Do not over tighten the set screws. It is also a good idea to tighten one screw lightly and then the other.
