The centrifugal clutch automatically engages when the engine rpm is
increased. Be sure that the idle speed adjustment is set low enough so
that the propeller does not rotate at idle.

Section 16: Hull Care
The hull of the ShockWave

55 Super Sport is finished using the
highest quality paints and the most advanced painting methods
available. The base coat/clear cote technique delivers an amazing
shine that is as durable as it is beautiful. To keep your ShockWave 55
Super Sport looking new, you should apply a wax coating as used on
automotive finishes to prevent oxidation and to further protect against
damage caused by fuel and other harmful chemicals
Section 17: Maintenance
The Pro Boat
™
ShockWave 55 SS should provide many hours of
exciting high-speed racing fun with just minor maintenance.
Preventative maintenance is very important. Taking the time to ensure
that all the set screws and bolts are tight before each operation of the
boat will prevent many problems.
Before operating ShockWave 55 SS:
Check that all screws and hardware are securely in place. This is very
important, as the manifold screws will occasionally vibrate loose
during the initial runs.
Check the propeller for damage in the form of chipping or cracking. If
you find any damage, replace the propeller, as the damage will effect
the performance of the boat and could also cause safety concerns.
When refueling, always wipe away any excess fuel that may have
spilled into or on the boat.
After operating the ShockWave 55 SS:
Wipe off any exhaust residue from the boat. If you operate the
ShockWave 55 SS in salt water, it is suggested that you thoroughly
rinse the deck, hull, and all the metal hardware with fresh water, then
dry them with a clean towel. After cleaning, coat all metal parts with a
silicone spray lubricant. This will help to prevent corrosion.
Ensure that the radio box and equipment inside is dry.
Remove the lower propeller strut mounting bolt and loosen the top
bolt. Rotate the propeller strut upwards to access the flex shaft.
Loosen the 2–1.5mm set screws on the brass ferrule located in
front of the propeller strut and remove the propeller shaft
assembly from the rear. Note that there is a nylon bushing
located on either end of the propeller strut.
