the tunnel.

peratures.

- The propeller blades are damaged because of an object in
the tunnel.
The bow thruster loses oil
- If an oil leak is noticed inside the vessel:
First check the hose and its connections. Check the oil seal
on the input shaft of the tail piece.
- If no oil is seen inside the vessel then check the propeller
shaft oil seal in the cover of the tail piece.
N.B. When fitting the tail piece cover both fixing screws should
be installed with thread sealant (Loctite®).
