Native recommends keeping the Propel drive clean and adding lubricant to the crank from time to time. This kit covers that job with 3.5 oz of Teflon lubricant, a pump with an extended nozzle, and a 3/16 inch allen key to open the fill port. It’s the general maintenance kit for the life of the drive.
Specs at a glance
- Includes: 3.5 oz Teflon lubricant, pump with extended nozzle, 3/16 in allen key
- Fits: Native Watercraft Propel pedal drive
- Use: crank lubrication through the fill port
Good to know
- Clean and rinse the drive before topping off the lubricant so you don’t seal dirt inside.
- Keep the allen key with your boat gear so you can reach the fill port on a multi-day trip.
KayakDIY take: Pedal drives last a lot longer when you stay ahead of maintenance. If you’re weighing pedals against power, see my best kayak motors guide.
