Section 6: Maintenance

Lubrication
It is important to lubricate the flex shaft of the Miss LLumar
with silicone cable grease after every two hours of operation.
Do not forget to do this. You can purchase this silicone grease at
your local hobby store. To lubricate the drive shaft, follow these
simple instructions.

Troubleshooting Guide (cont.)

The Pro Boat

Miss LLumar should provide many hours of

exciting high-speed racing fun with just minor maintenance.
Preventative maintenance is very important. Taking the time to
ensure that all the set screws and bolts are tight before each
operation of the boat will prevent many problems.

Before operating Miss LLumar
Check that all screws and hardware are securely in place. This is
very important, as the manifold screws will occasionally vibrate
loose during the first initial runs.

Check the propeller for damage in the form of chipping or
cracking. If you find any damage, replace the propeller, as the
damage will effect the performance of the boat and could also
cause safety concerns.

When refueling, always wipe away any excess fuel that may have
spilled into or on the boat.

After operating the Miss LLumar
Wipe off any exhaust residue from the boat. If you have operated
Miss LLumar in salt water, it is suggested that you thoroughly
rinse the deck, hull, and all the metal hardware with fresh water,
then dry them with a clean rag or towel. This will help to prevent
rust from occurring.

Ensure that the radio box and equipment inside is dry.

Carefully note how the drive shaft and prop are
presently installed. This is important so that when
you have finished lubricating the drive shaft, you can
correctly re-install the drive shaft.
