the Drive Shaft
Before and at the end of each run, make sure all screws are
tight and the propeller is free from any entanglement.
 1. Loosen the 1.5mm setscrew connecting the drive shaft
to the motor coupler.
 2. Loosen the 1.5mm setscrew connecting the universal
joint to the drive shaft.
 3. Remove the two 3mm screws from the outdrive to
separate the rudder assembly from the mount. Make sure
not to lose the 3mm nuts when removing the screws.
 4. Move the rudder assembly and slide the drive shaft out
of the stuffing box.
 5. Lubricate the drive shaft with drive shaft waterproof
grease (see your local hobby shop). Reinstall the drive

washer between the universal and the stuffing box.

in salt water could cause some parts to
corrode. If you run the boat in salt water,
rinse it thoroughly in fresh water after
each use and lubricate the drive system.
