5. Setup

5.1 Mounting the Motor

The Protruar G 3.0 is designed for transom mounting. Follow these steps to securely attach the motor to your boat:

1. Position the transom mount bracket on the stern of your boat.
2. Tighten the clamp screws on the bracket firmly to secure it to the transom. Ensure the motor is centered and stable.
3. Adjust the motor's shaft depth using the depth collar to ensure the propeller is submerged at the desired level, avoiding contact with the bottom or excessive splashing.
4. The motor offers 7 levels of tilting positions. Adjust the tilt to optimize performance and propeller depth.

5.2 Battery Connection

The Protruar G 3.0 requires a 24V power supply. This typically involves two 12V deep cycle batteries connected in series. The motor includes a 60A resettable inline fuse for protection.

1. Ensure the motor is OFF and the kill switch is disengaged before connecting batteries.
2. Connect the positive (+) terminal of the first 12V battery to the negative (-) terminal of the second 12V battery using a short jumper cable.
3. Connect the motor's positive (+) cable (red) to the remaining positive (+) terminal of the battery series.
4. Connect the motor's negative (-) cable (black) to the remaining negative (-) terminal of the battery series.
5. Secure all connections tightly.

WARNING: Incorrect battery connection can cause severe damage to the motor and pose a safety hazard.

5.3 Handle Assembly

The tiller handle is extendable and foldable for convenience.

• To extend the handle, pull it outwards until it locks into position.
• To fold the handle, release the locking mechanism and fold it down. The handle can fold at angles of 0-100 degrees.

Figure 4: The tiller handle can be folded for storage or adjusted for comfortable operation.

6. Operation

6.1 Power On/Off and Speed Control

The motor features digital stepless forward and reverse speed control directly from the tiller handle.

1. Attach the kill switch lanyard to the motor and yourself or the boat.
2. To engage forward motion, rotate the tiller handle clockwise. The further you rotate, the higher the speed.
3. To engage reverse motion, rotate the tiller handle counter-clockwise. The further you rotate, the higher the reverse speed.
4. To stop the motor, return the tiller handle to the neutral (OFF) position.

6.2 Battery Indicator

The motor head features a 5-level power display to indicate the battery's charge status.

• Monitor the display regularly to avoid unexpected power loss.
• Recharge batteries when the indicator shows low power.

6.3 Emergency Stop

The kill switch provides an immediate power cut-off for safety.

• In an emergency, pull the kill switch lanyard to instantly stop the motor.
• Always ensure the kill switch is properly engaged before starting the motor.

7. Maintenance

7.1 Propeller Care

The anti-impact propeller features a prop-clutch ability to prevent damage if it strikes an object.

• Regularly inspect the propeller for weeds, fishing line, or damage. Clear any obstructions.
• If the propeller is damaged, replace it with an authentic HASWING replacement propeller.
• Do not overtighten the propeller nut, as this can damage the motor if the prop strikes an object.

• After each use, especially in saltwater, rinse the motor thoroughly with fresh water.
• Wipe down all surfaces to remove salt, dirt, and debris.
• Store the motor in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
