4.2 Battery Connection
This motor requires a 24V power supply. It is recommended to use two 105AH deep cycle batteries (not included) connected in series.
- Ensure both batteries are fully charged before connection.
- Connect the positive terminal of the first battery to the negative terminal of the second battery (series connection).
- Connect the positive lead from the trolling motor to the remaining positive terminal of the battery bank.
- Connect the negative lead from the trolling motor to the remaining negative terminal of the battery bank.
- Double-check all connections for tightness and correct polarity.
4.3 Remote Control Pairing
Refer to the specific instructions included with your remote control for pairing procedures. Typically, this involves powering on the motor and pressing a pairing button on both the motor head and the remote control within a short timeframe.
4.4 Depth Adjustment
The motor features a depth collar for easy adjustment of the propeller's depth in the water. Loosen the collar, adjust the shaft to the desired depth, and then tighten the collar securely.
5. Operation
5.1 Powering On/Off
To power on the motor, ensure it is connected to the battery and press the power button on the motor head or remote control. To power off, press the power button again.
