3. Fit the skid guards making sure they are paired, matching the color of the skid guard to the color of the dot
on the board as each side is slightly different. Use the TORX driver to tighten the top bolt but be careful not to
overtighten. Next place the skid guard on the correct side of the board matching the color of the skid guard to the
colored dot on the underside of the board. Slide the mounts over the TORX screws in the bottom of the board.
Tighten the TORX screws approximately ½ turn to secure. Once complete, turn the board over.
A
NOTE: If the TORX screws are not fitted then they will need to be fitted first.
NOTE: When viewed in the normal operating position when the unit is floating on the water the red skid
guard should be on the left (PORT) and the green skid guard should be on the right (STARBOARD) side of
the board when viewed from behind. Pass the cables through the holes of the board and ensure the coned
plugs fit firmly, this stops air from being sucked down through the board.
4. Connect the cables from the thrusters to the rQPOD. Do not overtighten the locking sleeves. Periodically grease
the connectors with the supplied grease in the accessories case, especially if plugs are hard to insert.
