This view shows the correct position

for the sealed fuse.
Please note, the motor fuse is only
available as part of the motor
assembly. It is not a serviceable item,
and this is because the fuse must be
protected from environmental
conditions, i.e. spillages.
If the fuse were to fail, this would
indicate a fault in the motor, requiring
replacement of the complete motor
assembly. No nuisance tripping of
the fuse has been recorded during the
pre-launch endurance testing.
