1. Disconnect thruster from the rQPOD to ensure no power is being supplied. Remove the 3 screws that hold the
main body of the thruster to the Kurt nozzle cowling. Gently pull the assembly apart.
2. Remove the 2 Allen screws using a 2 mm hex driver and remove the impeller. Ensure that there is no debris in the
back part of the assembly and also under the stator. Replace the impeller with a new one if needed, ensuring that
the new one has the same rotation. Replace all screws. Do not overtighten.
