4. Setup & Installation

4.1 Mounting the Trolling Motor

1. Choose Mounting Location: Select a flat, stable area on the bow of your boat. Ensure there is sufficient clearance for deploying and stowing the motor, and that the shaft can be fully submerged without hitting the boat hull.
2. Position the Mount: Place the motor mount on the chosen location. Mark the drilling points for the mounting bolts.
3. Drill Holes: Carefully drill holes through the boat deck at the marked positions. Use appropriate drill bits for your boat material.
4. Secure the Motor: Position the trolling motor on the mount and secure it using the provided bolts, washers, and nuts. Ensure all fasteners are tightened securely to prevent movement during operation.

4.2 Electrical Connection

1. Battery Requirements: Connect the trolling motor to a 12V deep cycle marine battery. A minimum of 105AH is recommended for optimal performance and run time.
2. Wiring: Connect the positive (+) lead from the motor to the positive (+) terminal of the battery and the negative (-) lead to the negative (-) terminal. Ensure connections are tight and corrosion-free.
3. Circuit Protection: It is highly recommended to install an appropriate circuit breaker (not included) between the motor and the battery to protect against electrical overloads.

4.3 Adjusting Depth

The motor features an adjustable depth collar on the 54-inch cast alloy aluminum shaft. Loosen the depth collar adjustment knob, slide the motor shaft up or down to achieve the desired propeller depth, and then securely tighten the knob. The propeller should be submerged sufficiently to avoid cavitation but not so deep as to hit the bottom in shallow waters.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Deploying and Stowing the Motor

To deploy the motor, release the stow/deploy pedal or lever and gently lower the motor into the water. To stow, lift the motor out of the water and secure it in the stowed position using the pedal/lever and any locking mechanisms.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your trolling motor.

• After Each Use:
  • Rinse the motor thoroughly with fresh water, especially after saltwater use, to remove salt, dirt, and debris.
  • Inspect the propeller for any fishing line, weeds, or damage. Remove any obstructions.
  • Check all electrical connections for corrosion and tightness.
• Propeller Care:
  • Periodically remove the propeller to clean the shaft and check for wear on the propeller and shear pin.
  • Replace damaged propellers immediately.
• Sacrificial Anode:
  • The motor is equipped with a sacrificial anode to protect against galvanic corrosion. Inspect the anode regularly and replace it when it is significantly corroded (approximately 50% of its original size).
• Storage:
  • When storing the motor for extended periods, ensure it is clean, dry, and disconnected from the battery.
  • Store in a cool, dry place.
