The Pro Boat Blackjack 26 SS 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 setscrews and bolts are tight before each
operation of the boat will prevent many problems.
Before operating Blackjack 26 SS
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 Blackjack 26 SS
Wipe off any exhaust residue from the boat with
glass cleaner and a soft towel. After cleaning, coat
all metal parts with a silicone spray lubricant. This
will help to prevent corrosion.
Ensure that the radio box and equipment
inside is dry.
It is not recommended to operate the Blackjack 26
SS in saltwater.
Lubrication
It is important to lubricate the flex
shaft of the Blackjack 26 SS with
waterproof cable grease (PRB0100)
after every two hours of operation.
To lubricate the drive shaft, follow these simple
instructions.
