Steps

Note: The following step-by-step instructions apply to one side. Repeat these steps on both sides if you plan to remove both Horizontal Cones.

  1. Unscrew the horizontal thruster cone assembly from the horizontal thruster tube.

  2. If you plan to replace the O-ring, remove it by pinching it around the horizontal thruster tube to create a slack section that can be grabbed. Do NOT use a metal tool to remove the O-ring.

Tips

The horizontal thruster cone assembly has right-handed threads. Turn the thruster cone counterclockwise, when viewed from the rear of the ROV, in order to loosen it.

If you cannot loosen the horizontal thruster cone assembly by hand, you can use a non-slip pad, strap wrench or rubber coated pipe pliers.
