Hi there! love the video and I want to test my joystick with the jumper example you show at 4:37 but I'm confused because the picture showing the red, blue, grey and black is not the same direction when you do the jump from red to blue. can you confirm? thanks!
One the best trouble-shooting videos I've ever seen. It made us find a faulty thermo switch. We were so close to buy a electronic interface until we found this. Well done!
Is the program compatible with iOS/Apple devices?
Wonderful boat, neat installation and a great video explaining how simple it is to install and run a Zipwake trim system👍
Glad I read the comment before watching the video
Half of a video....
ua-cam.com/video/LKgNf-jMehk/v-deo.html
Excellent video, thanks👍
What should you check if you are blowing the fuse in one direction?
This indicates increased resistance in that direction. Please reach out to Imtra customer service so we can assist you in confirming the source of the problem. Give us a call at 508-995-7000
hi could the park position be at 12 oclock?
With the W12 motor, having the wiper arm park at the 12 o'clock position is not achievable as the sweep disk cannot be rotated. If you were to set the arm/blade to a 12 o'clock parking position, the sweep would need to be very short, and would only clear half the glass.
Awesome video. I successfully replaced my Lofrans Project 1000 pressure finger spring using this video and it significantly increase force on the pressure finger. Thanks @IMTRA
Love this for you!
When replacing the prop should any lubricants be applied?
Yes, if replacing the prop out of the water, the prop shaft should be re-greased using a marine grease for underwater. On the anode, we say to use blue Loctite on the screw to keep from backing out.
You solved my problem at 1:22. Thanks and well done!
Happy to help!
Very well done video on how to replace this spring on a Lofran Project 1000. Thanks for making this clear.
Happy to help!!

What about when sidepower se80 works with constant clicks in both direction and these clicks are followed by blinking light on the control panel in the same rhythm as the clicks. (Let's say 3 in a second). I have huge nee battery and new solenoid and distributor. Thanks!
Did you ever get a fix for that? I have the same problem solenoid constant rapid clicking when using joystick and even jumping it. New solenoid did not fix, I suspect its the relay(IPC control box)?
Wanting these out on my 2023 Yamaha 275 sdx. I live in Michigan and looking for a place that will install them.
Thanks for this.saved me hrs working out the fault
That's great news
Just shared with my dad and we have another question now that you have answered the drag question. We do a lot of fishing in the bay flats where it gets VERY skinny, and sometimes use trim tabs to help hole shot when its very shallow. How would your product hold up if it where to get smacked by a log or oyster etc when the boat is planing?
It's a very uncommon scenario given that the blades are only 1.5" down at full extension, and once on plane they wouldn't need to even be fully extended, so most debris would bounce off the hull and miss it, or just graze it. In the extremely unlikely event it were to take a direct hit from something solid enough to damage the blade, the front plate of the interceptor, which houses the blade, is the designed point of failure and is replaceable, so the whole unit would not need to be replaced.
Great video. Question, wouldn't this product create an enormous amount of drag when the tab is down? Seems like a normal trim tab shape/design creates MUCH less drag. I feel like this is a stupid question but would love to hear y'alls response. Thanks!
Believe it or not, it actually creates less drag given how small the blade is compared to the large surface area of the tab, and because the lift generated directly on the transom outweighs the drag created by the blades. It's illustrated here by the engineers at Zipwake in this video: ua-cam.com/video/czxjXSt1bEk/v-deo.htmlsi=lAy2WZxfaX34puek
@@imtramarineproducts Wow! Ok, that's some cool shit right there. Makes sense when you explain it, I'll check out the video now. Thanks for the reply!!
Tank You with this Video i Fund my troubleshooting. Selonoid must reglementiert.
Bro so nice thank you 😊😊😊
My bow thruster just clicks but it is 10 years old .
Bad battery my friend
Should be interesting to see how these hold up long term in salt water.
It would be really helpful to zoom in on parts when showing them in your video Also mentioning if the spare pins are NOT now included when you buy one of these. Despite what the video says!! Also educate your resellers as the current model changes to this part
Im getting one on my 2002 MS 390 this Winter. Im wondering if i can get a dual switch that will have my bow amd stern thruster connected.
How do you replace led if It doesn't work anymore?
The LED is built into the light, so it cannot be replaced individually, the whole fixture would need replacing. However these lights have a 30,000 hour lifespan and a 3-year warranty, so it's highly unlikely that a replacement would ever be required unless it is physically damaged.
Good video but no discussion at all regarding the gear oil or what type to use and how best to change it?
Any 80, 85, or 90 weight gear oil will suffice. Changing the oil is done by removing the 1/4" oil plug located just underneath the cleat on top of the windlass, and snaking a small hand pump in and pumping the existing oil out. If you have the windlass removed from the deck you can also drain it by removing the plug and tipping it, but that is of course more labor-intensive removing the windlass from the deck. The Tigres takes 0.5 Liters (or 17 ounces) of oil.
Awesome, thanks for the update. Last question of you don't mind? We have an older Tigres which is circa 2002 so that means it has the smaller motor. 1200w I believe? Is it possible to upgrade to the newer 1500w motor??
@@svZia-Switch51 Yes, replacement motors are available, and given the age of the windlass a newer motor would likely provide better performance. However it is important to note that the 1500W motor is physically the same motor as the older 1200W version, but it has been re-rated in more recent years as a 1500W motor based on updated motor rating standards across the industry. I found this article that helps illustrate how DC motors are rated and why the same motor can be rated at different powers based on how long the motor is expected to run: islproducts.com/design-note/how-to-read-dc-motor-gear-motor-performance-curves/ Hope this helps!
Super helpful. Time to order a new motor from you guys!!@@imtramarineproducts
Cost is based on thruster models being converted?
That is correct
Bien, mais il faut faire cette manipulation après avoir installé le propulseur sur la coque, avec les rondelles et écrous plus l’étanchéité . Sinon impossible de mettre en place le propulseur.
Can you advise a sailor as to how to replace a Maxwell vw800 with a Lofrans?
Please call our customer service department, (508) 995-7000 and they'll be happy to help you select the right replacement and walk you through the process
What’s is the problem if your lying chain out , then stop letting chain out to allow boat to stop and set anchor , yet chain still goes out while trying to set anchor ?
That would likely be a result of the clutch being too loose. Just need to put the winch handle in the top and tighten it down.
Outstanding info. What I didn't hear is anything about an over charge indication. The yellow and green lights on my converter/ charger are cycling (which from the manual indicates an over charge status). Why would this cause the thrusters to not even turn on?
We'd recommend you contact our service department (508) 995-7000 so someone can help you troubleshoot over the phone and get into the specifics of the setup on your boat.
Did you solve the problem? I have the same problem. What should I check?
At 1:45, the installation shows a gasket. I'm installing a replacement motor. No such gasket (or screws) was provided. Can I order one? Part number? Also, no installation instructions were provided. Do you have any? Thanks. -Bruce
Hi Bruce, sorry for the delayed reply, we do have gaskets available, we'll just need to know the thruster model, and our customer service team would be able to provide installation instructions as well. Give us a call at (508) 995-7000 and someone will be able to assist you!
Well thats the simple part of the install, please add the part about setting up park and sweep for us.

Thx for the troubleshooting , i need to change the temp switch
How did you do that I'm working on one now
thank you for video
Waoooo
I my friend. I want to. Buy one.
Thanks you so much my friend
This is excellent! Thank you for demonstrating the maintenance. Easy to follow. I will be ordering the maintenance kit shortly.
Hi do you have any installation videos?
Should any form of anti-seize or Loctite locker be used on the threads? I see so many conflicting opinions on this. Some say Loctite 243 blue?
It is not required but is often used and blue Loctite is a popular choice. The only thing to keep in mind is that this anode does need to be changed at least annually, so nothing more permanent should be used to bind the threads.
What's the price my brother
4k
For it and the installation; im paying $9,500 USD😢
Don't let Rod Collins from MarineHowTo or anyone from the ABYC see those soldered cables. They don't approve of them.
Any advice regarding bow thruster fade?
Curious what you mean by fade? Not running at full power when held on for an extended period of time, or losing its overall power throughout the years? If the former, it would likely be related to battery power/voltage. If the latter, it could be worn carbon brushes within the motor, which wear down over time and can be replaced.
Well done instruction video for an innovative product!
