The LBV has been designed to be rugged for use in harsh environments. However, using LBV requires some basic maintenance to maintain the high level of performance expected as well as the long life and trouble free use. Use these recommendations to properly maintain your LBV. A certain degree of common sense is required to know when additional maintenance is required. The better you take care of LBV the better it will serve you.

It is a good idea to keep track of your use of LBV, number of hours run and any maintenance or repairs conducted. Use the Microsoft Excel spreadsheet as a guide to keeping track of your maintenance.

Maintenance
After each operation - clean the LBV properly and be sure to check over the LBV for signs of any damage.

After each operation (dirty water) - If operated in muddy or sandy conditions it is recommended the protective shell be removed to thoroughly clean the LBV.

Every 50 hours of operation - the thrusters require new grease be pushed through the shaft seal grease gallery.

Every 300 hours of operation - the standard SBT brushed thrusters require new motors after approximately 300 hours of operation.

Every 500 hours or two (2) years, whichever comes first, it is recommended to replace all O-ring seals on the LBV.
