11.1 Corrosion protection
Materials were chosen with a high level of
corrosion-resistance. Most of the materials used
in the Cruise 2.0 are, as with most leisure maritime
products, classed as „seawater resistant“, not „seawater-proof“.
•
After use, always take the motor out of the water
. You can do this using
the tilt mechanism of the transom mount.
• After use in salt or brackish water
, rinse the motor (but never the tiller)
with fresh water.
• Only store the motor in a dry condition.
•
Treat the following parts with contact spray once a month:
– Gas pressure springs of the tilt mechanism
– Contacts on the power cable
– Plug on the steering cable
• We recommend checking the sacrificial anode once a year. The
sacrificial anode is fitted to the drive shaft of the propeller. Only use
Torqeedo sacrificial anodes - you can order these from your dealer or
the Torqeedo Service Team.
11.2 Other care instructions
To clean the motor you can use any cleaning agents suitable for plastic - follow the
manufacturer‘s instructions. Cockpit sprays available for cars achieve good results on the
plastic surfaces of the Torqeedo Cruise.
