Maintenance - Quick BTAC Series Installation And User Manual

7 - Maintenance

Quick® thrusters are made in materials that are resistant to the sea environment: in any case, it is indispensable to periodically
remove salt deposits that form on the outer surfaces to avoid corrosions and consequent system inefficiency.
DEPENDING ON USE, PERIODICALLY CHECK THE TIGHTNESS OF THE OIL SEALS AND REPLACE THEM IF NECESSARY.
• Make sure that the power supply to the electric motor is not switched on when maintenance operations are
• carried out.
• Do not paint the anodes, the sealings and the gearleg's shaft where the propellers are lodged.
Dismantle once a year, following the points below:
• Clean propellers, tunnel and gearleg.
• Replace the anodes (carry out this operation more often if needed).
• Replace the propellers if damaged or worn out.
• Check the tightness of all screws.
• Ensure that there is no water seepage inside.
• Check that all electrical connections are well tightened and oxide-less.
