English Manual: Super Power Series 60-80 25/03/2004 BEFORE STARTING THE INSTALLATION, IT IS RECOMMENDED TO CAREFULLY READ THE FOLLOWING GUIDE.
English Manual: Super Power Series 60-80 1 25/03/2004 GENERAL INSTALLATION GUIDELINES Determining the most efficient position for your thruster: The tunnel should be placed in the deepest section of the hull and as far forward as possible. For maximum efficiency the tunnel should be installed no less than 100 mm from the water line.
English Manual: Super Power Series 60-80 25/03/2004 Fit the tunnel and mark the areas to be fibre-glassed. Sand these areas inside and out. In certain installations it is preferable to drill the position of the thruster support before the installation of the tunnel. Refit the tunnel. Apply reinforced fibreglass filler to all areas, taking care that you fill the gap between hull and tunnel. Stratify with a minimum of 8 coats of material and ISOPHTALIQUE RESINE alternating with mat and roving.
English Manual: Super Power Series 60-80 4 25/03/2004 COMPOSITE DRIVE LEG The installation of the composite drive leg is identical to that of bronze leg, except for the following points: The composite drive leg is lubricated for life The composite drive leg does not require an anode. The composite drive leg MUST NOT BE DISMANTLED even partially. 5 ELECTRIC MOTOR Position the motor on the support: Insert the shaft of the motor into the slot of the leg (grease before fitting).
English Manual: Super Power Series 60-80 9 25/03/2004 CONTROL SYSTEM Install a breaker/isolator in the supply wiring of the thruster control box on the boats’ main electrical switchboard marked BOW THRUSTER: This breaker/isolator should ideally be supplied from an independent battery bank, to the one used for powering the thruster unit.
English Manual: Super Power Series 60-80 10 25/03/2004 CONTROL PANEL AND THRUSTER CONTROL BOX FUNCTIONS To switch the thruster "ON" or "OFF" follow the instructions on the diagrams below. When switched "ON" the unit will beep once and the green LED in the red push-button will light up. When switched "OFF" the unit will beep twice and the green LED in the red push-button will go out.
English Manual: Super Power Series 60-80 12 25/03/2004 BATTERY REQUIREMENTS CAUTION: refer to the maker’s technical characteristics (capacity and starting current) of the battery used. Example: Exide Maxxima 900, 12 volts, capacity 55 Ah / starting current 800 CCA. The higher the CCA the more suitable the batteries are, large capacity batteries with a low CCA may be inferior to much smaller battery’s with a higher CCA .
English Manual: Super Power Series 60-80 14 25/03/2004 FUSE Sizing of fuses for overcurrent protection are a function of the cable sizes in the circuit, not the amperage drawn by the appliance (thruster motor) in the circuit. The current carrying capability (ampacity) of this cable is determined by referring to the appropriate cable datasheet, and then a fuse is chosen with a ratio no higher than this (it can be lower).
English Manual: Super Power Series 60-80 17 25/03/2004 OPERATION With the control system breaker/isolator and manual battery isolator switched on: Switch on control panel, as described previously in manual. Push red button or incline joystick to the left, boat moves to the left. Push green button or incline joystick to the right, boat moves to the right. If, during tests the boat moves in the wrong direction, change the blue and the brown wires around on your power relay.
English Manual: Super Power Series 60-80 21 25/03/2004 COMPOSITE LEG The composite drive leg is lubricated for life and does not require changing of oil.
