Nice integrated cabling on the Cedars mast, didn't even know that was an option. Thx for the video.

[@foildrive]

The Project Cedrus integration is being released in the coming weeks! A little teaser :)

Is there a video showing exactly how to grease the shaft? Should grease be applied to inside of motor can as well?

[@andylitespeed]

Thanks guys, this video is much appreciated!

[@foildrive]

Thanks Andrew, glad it has helped!

At 9:50 you mention ways to care for older motors, including taking the pin out. Can you please post a link to the 2 hour video you mentioned, I'd like to see the detail of cleaning/lubricating the rotor on < 2023 motor

[@marekkaniewski8789]

Great vid, thank you

[@MissEmaK8]

So informative guys 👏

[@peaplecreative]

Nice job with the video, very informative 👍

[@dminnerop]

Thank you for the great video. As far as maintaining/cleaning the motor would running it briefly in the pool after a session suffice?

[@shiregopro]

It's certainly better than nothing but the best will still be submerged or sprayed out in clean fresh water with the rotor removed.

In Europe, there is no WD40 Lanolin available….can it be replaced by White Lithium or Silicon Lubricant?

[@foildrive]

Best is to use the White Lithium if you do not have access to a lanolin based lubricant. Dominic in the Netherlands uses "WD40 White Lithium Spuitvet White Lithium Grease"

[@jeremyalmeda5307]

Can you really clean and maintenance the bearings when they're permanently installed and are not meant to be removed?

[@rolandjacques649]

what version WD40 should we use in the U States? we dont seem to have that version
