  • STEP 1 :
    • Find a good location for the motor. It’s important that the motor can make free water flow out from the propeller.
    • Make sure there are no obstacles on the inside so you don’t hit any wires or tubes.Anchorlift-WS60C-External-Thruster-fig-1
  • STEP 2 :
    • Once you have found a good location use the motor bracket, mark the 2 holes for the 6mm mounting bolts.
    • Make sure the bracket is mounted the same way as in the piture, a square point on the bracket pointing out.
    • The bracket you use for marking the holes must be used on the same side.Anchorlift-WS60C-External-Thruster-fig-2
  • STEP 3 :
    • Drill holes for the motor bracket, use 5mm drill bit, then use the 6mm threading loss and make treads in the holesAnchorlift-WS60C-External-Thruster-fig-3
  • STEP 4:
    • Making holes for cable clamp and cable inlet.
    • Plan where you want the cable clamps and the cable inlet.
    • NOTE !! The cable inlet must always be over the water line.Anchorlift-WS60C-External-Thruster-fig-4
  • STEP 5:
    • Drill holes for screws for cable clamp 3,5mm. Cable inlet cover 2,5mm. Hole for motor cable 12-13mm.
    • Remove antifouling where the sealant will be. Note !! The hole for the cable must be angled down so the motor cable will lay flat into the transom.Anchorlift-WS60C-External-Thruster-fig-5
  • STEP 6:
    • Mounting motor bracket, cable clamp, and cable inlet cover.
    • Ad sealant under the bracket, bolt holes, and cable clamp hole,
    • Mount the motor bracket with 2pcs 6x70mm bolt, since the holes have treads you must screw the bolt in.
    • Tighten bolts well, but not too hard so you damage the treads and bracket.Anchorlift-WS60C-External-Thruster-fig-6
  • STEP 7:
    • Mounting motor and cable inlet.
