6. Entretien
Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your INJORA axle:
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the axle for any signs of wear, damage, or loose components. Check the CVD shafts, gears, and bearings.
- Nettoyage: Keep the axle assembly clean from dirt, dust, and debris, especially after off-road use. A soft brush and compressed air can be effective.
- Vérification des fixations : Regularly check all screws and fasteners for tightness. Vibrations during operation can cause them to loosen over time.
- Lubrification: Apply a small amount of appropriate RC-specific grease to the gears and moving parts as needed to reduce friction and wear.
