- Page 6 Positioning of the retract thruster Retract Thruster The thruster must always be installed so the hatch is opened towards the bow. Ensure enough space for the complete retract unit including room for installation of SRF flange and for future service. Allow minimum 100mm of clear space around the thruster for moulding of the SRF flange.
- Page 7 Preparing a sandwich hull for retract systems MC_0792 For vessels with sandwich hull construction, additional reinforcement of the area around the SRF flange is required. Cross section of a sandwich core hull Inner laminate Core Outer laminate Gel coat • To achieve maximum strength and bonding in the area around the installation of the SRF flange remove the inner laminate and core material to expose the outer laminate.
- Page 8 Marking and trimming of the SRF flange MC_0773 Flip the SRF flange upside down and position it at the identifi ed installation location. (Reference 1). • - For bow thrusters, this is usually symmetrical about the vessel centerline. - For stern thrusters, the position of the thruster may deviate from centerline. •...
- Page 9 Cut out the hatch MC_0774 • When cutting from inside, prepare for cutting by drilling 4 holes in each corner of the marked area at 45º angle inwards against the centerline (Reference 1). The hatch opening must be cut at an angle of 45º on starboard, port and stern sides, (Reference 2), and 30º on the side facing •...
- Page 10 Pre- mount the SRF flange and thruster housing MC_0777 Position the trimmed SRF flange (Reference 1) in the correct position over the hatch cut-out in the hull (Reference 2). • • Install the thruster housing (Reference 3) provisionally on the SRF flange, and secure it with 4 screws. Verify that the com- plete thruster assembly (SRF flange and thruster housing) is still inn correct position.
- Page 11 Positioning of the hatch attachment holes MC_0776 • Ensure that the SRF flange and the thruster housing are positioned correctly inside the hull. (See the previous topic). • Use a suitable aid, e.g. adhesive tape, straight edge, laser or other adequate aid to follow a straight line over the center of the hatch bolt holes, in two directions.
- Page 12 Drilling the attachment holes in the hatch MC_0778 • Drill four Ø11mm holes in the center of each marking created in the previous step. • It is recomended to use a pillar drill with a proper construction surface to ensure that the holes are drilled perpendicular to the hatch.
- Page 13 Pre-install the hatch MC_0779 Temporarily setting up the complete installation to ensure no conflicts during the fi nal operation of the thruster. • Temporarily attach the hatch to the thruster housing by using the M10 countersunk bolts through the drilled holes in the hatch and screw them in to the hatch bolt holes.

- Page 16 SRF flange installation MC_0782 Before grinding of hull and SRF flange, precautions must be taken against grinding dust inside the boat. Surfaces to be moulded/ bonded must be ground to remove coating and material to achieve suffi cient adhesion. • Grind and smooth the area inside the hull opening to remove the gelcoat.
- Page 17 SRF flange installation MC_0783 • After the glue / adhesive has hardened completely, the inside and outside of the SRF flange and hull must be laminated. Apply several layers of fi breglass and ensure that the resin and fi breglass is compatible with hull and flange materials. •...
- Page 18 Thruster housing installation MC_0784 • When the lamination process is completed, the thruster housing can be installed. • Apply MS polymer or equivalent on the SRF flange surface (Reference 1). • Lower the thruster housing down on the SRF flange. Install bolts, washers and nuts (Reference 2) in each mounting hole.
- Page 19 Hatch installation MC_0786 • Ensure that the thruster is in the outer position • Apply glue on the twist ring facing the hatch. • Enter the hatch bolts through the hatch, (Reference 1) and enter the lock nuts (Reference 2) on the bolt. Position the nuts close to the inside of the hatch, but do not tighten.
- Page 20 Hatch installation MC_0788 • Lower down the thruster. Apply a layer of aluminium or duct tape on hatch opening edges on the hull. (Reference 1). This is for masking out for the • adhesive in the next step. Apply fi ller or equivalent to hatch edges in such amount that it will fi ll the gap between the hull and the hatch. (Reference 2). •...
