electromotor protects against over heating (auto reset when electro motor cools down).
Flexible coupling between electro-motor and driveshaft protects electromotor and gearsystem if propeller gets
jammed.
If original Sidepower panel is used, the panel shuts off automatically 6 minutes after last use.
Integrated microprocessor monitors solenoids, reducing wear and risk of solenoid lock-in. Auto-stop of thruster in
case of accidental solenoid lock-in or if run signal is continous for more than 3 minutes.

SE80/185T & SE100/185T Ignition Protected thruster assembly 1.0 - 2007
Prior to installation, it is important that the installer reads this guide to ensure necessary acquaintance with this product.
The electromotor assembly must be handled carefully. Do not lift it by the internal connections or put it down on the driveshaft.
Beware to keep installation within adviced measurements.
We advice to paint the gearhouse and propellers with antifouling. PS! Do not paint the zinc anodes, sealings or propellershafts.
Do not nish the inside of the tunnel with a layer of gelcoat / topcoat or similiar. It is only room for a thin layer of primer and two layers
of anti-fouling between the tunnel and the props.
With the boat on land, only run the thruster for a fraction of a second, as without resistance it will accelerate very fast to a damaging
rpm. Also, while the thruster is in air, make sure that the propellers have come to a complete stop before performing a direction
change of the thruster, as it does cause damage to the thruster.
This manual is intended to support educated / experienced staff and is therefore not sufcient in all details for the correct installation.
The thruster IP assembly has been tested to be fully ignition protected so that it can be installed in an area with the possibility of
explosive gases in accordance to ISO 8846.
Do not install the thruster in a position where you need to cut a stiffener/stringer/support for the hull integrity without checking with the
boatbuilder that this can be safely done.
When installed in boats approved or classied according to international or special national rules, the installer is responsible for
following the demands in accordance with these regulations / classication rules. The instructions in this guide can not be guaranteed
to comply with all different regulations / classication rules.
NB ! Faulty installation of the tunnel, thruster or panel will render all warranty given by Sleipner Motor AS void.
Planning and important precautions
To achieve maximum effect, reliability and durability from your Sidepower stern thruster, a correct installation is very important.
Please follow the instructions carefully, and make sure that all checkpoints are carefully controlled.
Additional considerations for positioning of the stern thruster
Make sure that the stern-tunnel does not disturb the waterow under the hull
Ensure that when installed the thruster does not foul exisiting equipment inside the boat like steerage links etc.
Make sure that the water ow from the thruster are not intereferred to much by sterndrives, trimtabs etc. as this will reduce the thrust
considerably.
It is possible to mount the tunnel off the boat’s centre line if necessary.
If the stern thickness is to much for the thruster in question you can easily remove hull material in the necessary area to t the
thruster. You only have to reduce the stern thickness down to the max. thickness measurement in the drawing.
Stern thruster installation considerations

SE80/185T & SE100/185T Ignition Protected thruster assembly 1.0 - 2007
Fig. 1
Bolt on installation of the stern tunnel
1. Make sure that there are enough space both inside and outside the transom of the boat.
2. Once the place for the installation has been decided, hold the
tunnel in place in the horizontal position and mark the bolt
holes. Remove the tunnel and it is then possible to calculate
and mark the centre.
3. It is important that the tunnel ange sits ush on the transom.
If this is not so, then the area on the transom will have to be
attened to ensure a snug t.
PS ! Take care with grinders as it is very easy to remove to
much in breglass
At this time, cut out the centre hole and the transom to the
same internal diameter as the tunnel ange and drill the bolt
holes. Before bolting on the stern tunnel, the prepared area
must be sealed with a gelcoat or similar to ensure there is no
water ingress into the hull.
4. Before tting the tunnel to the transom, t the lower gear leg
to the tunnel as described on page 6. We recommend that
you t the oil feed pipe also before the tunnel is bolted to the
transom.
5. When tting the tunnel, ensure that there is ample sealant
(Sikaex or similar) in the sealing tracks of the tunnel ange
and around the bolts to make a water tight tting (Fig. 1/2).
Bolts, washers and nuts are not included as they will wary de-
pending on the transom thickness We recommend A4 stainless with A4 lock nuts and A4 washers of a large diameter on
both outside and inside.
Bolts diameter: ø 10mm or 3/8” stainless steel
6. Refer to the installation manual for the recommended thruster
tting.
If a bow thruster is also installed, we strongly advice to
use separate battery banks for the two thrusters to avoid
extreme voltage drop if both thrusters are to be used at the
same time. Refer to the thruster manuals for adviced battery
capacity and cable sizes for each thruster.
Also ensure that you do not have direct connections of both +
and - if you have built together controls for both thrusters to
avoid current leakage between separate battery banks.
If you are installing the standard Sidepower dual joystick
panel this is already secured.

Grind off the bolt ange and

Fig. 1
Mould on installation of the stern tunnel
1. Make sure that there are enough space both inside and outside the transom of the boat.
2. Cut of the bolting ange on the stern-tunnel
3. Grind off the gelcoat both inside and outside the remaining
“tube” atleast 10 cm down on the “tube” (Fig. 1).
4. Offer the stern tunnel to the desired position on the transom
and mark around the tube.
5. Cut the marked hole in the transom of the boat.
6. Grind off the gelcoat on the transom of the boat in an area of
atleast 10 cm / 4” around the hole, both outside and inside
(Fig. 1).
7. Offer the stern tunnel to the transom in the desired horizontal
position, then bond to the transom with multi layers matt both
inside and outside (Fig. 2).
Take care not to reduce the internal diameter much, as this
will make it more difcult to mount the thruster
8. Apply gelcoat or similar on all bonded areas.
9. Install the gear leg on the stern-tunnel as described in the
installation manual for the thruster but t the oil feed pipe rst.
10. Basic installation of the motor assembly and electrical installation are described later in this manual.

If a bow thruster is also installed, we advice to use seper-
ate battery banks for the two thrusters to avoid extreme

Also ensure that you do not have direct connections of

1. Try the lower-unit in the tunnel (remove the zinc anodes) rst by using the gasket inside the tunnel. Try on the propellers to make
sure it is centred in the tunnel and turn freely with the same clearance from each blade to the tunnel (Fig. 1).
The gearleg must be tted with the end marked P facing port and the end marked S facing starboard (Fig. 3) for the thrust direction
to correspond with the control panel. If there is no visible P or S marks, t the gearleg with the "SLEIPNER"-casting towards the
stern/back of the boat.
2. Apply a thin layer of sealant on both sides of the gasket (7) and place it carefully on the gearhouse, making sure no sealant gets
into the bolt holes on the gearhouse (Fig 1).
3. Push the gearhouse through the main hole in the tunnel and push the gearhouse and motor-bracket gently together.
4. Fit the enclosed sealing washers to the bolts and screw the lower unit and the motor bracket together with the two provided bolts.
