    New mystic owner help needed

    Hi all I have just got a new mystic and love the look of it
    When checking all connections ,nuts bolts ect I noticed that the prop seems hard to turn and judery?

    Disconnected the drive from the motor, and found that it is the mother that seems very stifff to turn!

    My newby qwestion is should it be this way unpowered and is this correct

    Please help as I would hate to damage it on the first run

    Best regards

    It's a 6-pole motor... I would worry if it WASN'T doing that!!

    That's the way these motors are. I'm surprised you can even turn it by hand if trying just on the output shaft...

    Have fun!
