3.1 - Precautions Quick® Thrusters have been designed and constructed only for nautical use. • Do not use these products for any other type of operation. • Quick® shall not be held liable for direct or indirect damage caused by improper use of the product. • The product is not designed to support loads generated in particular atmospheric conditions (storms). • Operate the product from a position where it is possible to supervise the work area. • Always deactivate the product when not being used. • For improved safety, we recommend installing at least two controls to operate the product in...

4.0 - Propellers The position of the tunnel will depend on the interior and exterior shape of the boat’s bow. • FIG. 1 In order to avoid cavitation in the propeller, the tunnel should be placed as deep as possible. The optimum tunnel position will be at least 0.75 times the diameter of the tunnel from the waterline. Minimum 0.75 times tunnel Ø • FIG. 2 The lever effect in the boat is proportional to the increase of the distance (L1 and L2) between the barycentre and the position of the tunnel A and B. SINGLE PROPELLER • FIG. 3 For greater lever effect prefer position B. DOUBLE PROPELLER...

4.1 - Tunnel • The rounded ends of the tunnel limit the creation of turbulence and cavitation, improving performance of the propeller thrust and reducing noise levels to a minimum. SINGLE PROPELLER DOUBLE PROPELLER • The force produced by the flow of the water when the boat is moving produces resistance on the rear face of the tunnel, which is an area exposed frontally to the water flow. To limit this phenomenon, prepare an indentation in the rear part of the tunnel. The indentation will depend on the shape of the hull. Otherwise, create a deflector on the front part of the tunnel. • If the...

4.2 - Thruster • The thruster can be installed at any angle within 90º from the vertical. • If the electric motor is positioned at an angle of more than 30° from the vertical, an appropriate support (saddle) must be installed. SINGLE PROPELLER DOUBLE PROPELLER • To position the thruster in the tube, find the half-way point of the tube and move by the value indicated (left or right, see box) in the diagram below so that the propeller is positioned exactly in the middle of the inner length of the tunnel. • To position the thruster in the tube, find the half-way point of the tube and move by...

4.3 - BTQ 110/125 Gearleg and motor support flange • Fit the gearleg with the special seal gasket. • For further protection against the entry of water, apply silicone for nautical use around the point of contact between flange and tube. • Insert the motor on the flange by coupling the two elastic coupling halves. Secure with the 4 screws and washers supplied. • Fasten everything with the flange using the special screws and washers. ELASTIC COUPLING HALVES ELASTIC COUPLING HALVES 4.3.0 - BTQ110/125 Propeller assembly • Insert propeller A on the shaft of gearleg B, secure the propeller with...

4.4 - BTQ 140/185/250/300 Gearleg and motor support flange • Fit the gearleg with the special seal gasket. • For further protection against the entry of water, apply silicone for nautical use around the point of contact between flange and tube. • Fasten everything with the flange using the special screws and washers. 1 • Insert the elastic coupling in the terminal part of the gearleg shaft. • Grease the terminal part of the gearleg shaft; fit the small key into its seat. • Insert the motor onto the elastic coupling; secure it with the 4 screws and washers supplied. • Grease the terminal...
