These areas allow water access to the hull which is typically not waterproof without these applications outside. (NB: All original Side-Power tunnels are fully waterproof when delivered except in the areas where you have cut and bonded it to the hull.)

    IMPORTANT Only use original bolts delivered with the Side-Power thruster. Also, avoid contact between the AC motor shaft and the coupling drive shaft. Centa has applied retention Inbus PlusAll glue to all bolts. (NB: The glue will harden within 4-5 hours at 20˚C.) Additional use of any loctite or anaerobic adhesives will destroy the natural vulcanisation of the rubber.

    Functions and Operation MC_0158 Motor protection functions: Dynamic thrust limitation: If the electric motor winding temperature exceeds 130°C, the PDC 301 limits the maximum thrust output. The maximum thrust permitted will decrease proportionally to increasing temperatures higher than 130°C. (NB: Joystick panel will give an alert when the temperature exceeds 130°C. In this situation, the thruster can still be operated.
