P.O. Box 519, Arne Svendsensgt. 6-8 N-1612 Fredrikstad, Norway Declare that this product with accompanying standard control systems complies with the essential health and safety requirements according to: DIRECTIVE 2013/53/EU DIRECTIVE 2014/30/EU DIRECTIVE 2014/35/EU SE20 & SE25 & SE30 & SE40 5611 2021...
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.
- Flexible coupling between electro-motor and drive shaft protects electro motor and gear system if propeller jams. - Original Sleipner panels shut off automatically 6 minutes after last use. This interval can be adjusted in 5 min steps up to 60 minutes or turned off completely.
As a general recommendation, the position of the tunnel should not be a minimum of 1/4 of the diameter of the tunnel from the boat keel. (NB: This can be overlooked depending on the installation methods defi ned in this manual.) SE20 & SE25 & SE30 & SE40 5611...
6. High-Speed Boats Tunnel lengths must be increased to protect the propeller from damage when crashing against the water surface during high-speed cruising. (NB: This can include the length of a spoiler) SE20 & SE25 & SE30 & SE40 5611 2021...
This installation is being used by some of the world’s largest sail boat builders and has proven to give little to no speed loss during normal cruising. This can also be an installation method for flat bottomed barges to avoid extremely long tunnels and large oval tunnel openings in the hull. SE20 & SE25 & SE30 & SE40 5611...
(4). (NB: As a rule, you should not see the back face of the tunnel when standing directly in front of the boat looking aft.) SE20 & SE25 & SE30 & SE40 5611...
This “free” extra thrust in optimal installations be 30 - 40% of the total thrust. (NB: A Side-power thruster propeller does not produce cavitation at working speed. Therefore, any cavitation and cavitation noise in the tunnel will be caused during improper tunnel installation.) SE20 & SE25 & SE30 & SE40 5611 2021...
(NB: Ensure gaps between the tunnel and the hull are completely fi lled with resin/ fi breglass. In areas where you can not access to make layers of resin/ fi breglass, a resin/ fi breglass mixture must be used in that area.) SE20 & SE25 & SE30 & SE40 5611...

Install the top motor bracket and gear leg gently together. Use appropriate sealant to ensure that no leakages occur. (NB: See your sealant data sheet for the correct application process.) Fasten the gear leg and the motor bracket with the bolts provided. Tighten to torque as shown above. SE20 & SE25 & SE30 & SE40 5611 2021...
Insert the washer to the end of the shaft spline. Fasten with the propeller lock-nut. Apply anti-fouling to the gear leg and propeller. Do not apply anti-fouling to any rubber elements of the gear leg or anodes. SE20 & SE25 & SE30 & SE40 5611...
IMPORTANT The thruster motor assembly must be protected using suitable covering to avoid dust/debris ingress from fabrication/maintenance/shipbuilding operations. On completion of operations, the cover must be removed before operating the thruster. SE20 & SE25 & SE30 & SE40 5611 2021...
After all electrical connections have been completed check with an ohm meter that there is no electrical connection between 1. electro-motor flange and the positive terminal on the motor 2. electro-motor flange and the battery negative terminal on the motor If unsure contact skilled personnel.
