PRECAUTIONS PRECAUTIONS

NEVER FREE-REV THE MOTOR Free-running your brushless

motor in a no-load condition can result in rotor failure and ESC

transistor damage & will void the product’s warranty!

Never free-rev your system to “see how it runs” or you may not get to drive it again!

• WATER & ELECTRONICS DON’T MIX Never allow water, moisture, or

other foreign materials to get inside motor, or on PCBs.

• NOVAK MOTORS & ESCs FOR BEST RESULTS Use Novak sensored

motors with Novak Brushless ESCs for best performance & protection.

Only

use motors with the proper number of turns to match ESC’s rating.

Use of this brushless motor with ESCs that advance motor

timing can result in excessive current draw & severe motor

damage that will NOT be covered by the product’s warranty!

• DO NOT use Ballistic8 motors above 50,000RPM.

• INSULATE EXPOSED WIRES Use heat shrink tubing to prevent shorts.

• NO SOLVENTS Do NOT expose the motor to any type of solvents.

• SET GEAR MESH PROPERLY Too tight of a gear mesh can result in

motor pinion shaft breakage--be sure to adjust mesh properly.

MOTOR MAINTENANCE MOTOR MAINTENANCE

• CHECK ALL MOTOR SCREWS for loosening at regular intervals, just like

other hardware on your vehicle. Note: The 3 main socket head screws

that hold the motor together may require tightening after a few runs of

the motor. Also check the 3 ﬂat head screws securing the end cap on

the back of the motor--DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN THESE SCREWS.

• CHECK MOTOR BEARING WEAR after extensive use. The motor’s

closed design will keep most dirt & debris out, but some will get in

and eventually cause wear. If the shaft does not spin freely, you may

need bearing replacement

(replacement bearing accessory kits are available

from Novak)

. A small drop of light oil on the bearings periodically can

help extend bearing life--however, too much oil will attract dirt and will

cause problems, so apply sparingly.

• CLEAN INSIDE MOTOR periodically by removing front end cap,

removing the rotor, and blowing out the inside of the motor with

compressed air.

Be sure not to lose any small shim washers that may be

on the ends of the rotor shaft & keep them in the correct location.
