2.2 Electrical connection (for 12V battery only!)
Connect the red battery
cable (A) to the positive
terminal (marked by (+) on
the battery). Connect the
black battery cable (B) to
the negative terminal (-).
The terminals must be rmly
connected. Otherwise,
malfunctions may occur. The
battery should always be
placed in a well ventilated
place.The motor works
with all conventional 12V
batteries. Zebco Europe
recommends the use of
special marine deep dis-
charge batteries or LiFePO4 lithium batteries to ensure the best
possible operation. (Fig. 3)
2.3.Switching on the motor
The power button is located below the motor head (Fig. 4).
When the button is pressed, a short ve-tone melody sounds
and the motor is connected to the remote control
2.4 Remote control
The remote control is located in a practical clamping holder at
the top of the motor head. The remote control is synchronized
with the motor after the motor is switched on.
If this is not the case, follow these instructions:
Step 1
Connect the motor to the battery and switch it on by pressing
the power button for a maximum of two seconds.The pow-
er-on melody sounds.
Step 2
Press and hold the power button again for four seconds to put
the motor into pairing mode. This is conrmed by a short beep.
Step 3
Bring the remote control close to the motor head and press any
button (e.g. Start/Stop, button 4) on the remote control.The
remote control should now be paired with the motor.
CAUTION: If the boat is to be taken
out of the water, the motor must be
removed beforehand.
Always disconnect the battery before
attaching or removing the motor.
2.5 Assembling/Loosening the propeller (g. 6A-D)
CAUTION: ALWAYS disconnect the battery prior to chang-
ing the propeller.
Verify proper t of the groove and shearing pin when mounting
the new propeller, otherwise the propeller will not attach
properly.
Screw in the locknut hand-tight using the propeller wrench sup-
plied, taking care to hold the propeller with one hand to prevent
it from revolving. Do not loosen or tighten the locknut with a

3.1 Maintenance
Rinse the motor thoroughly with running water. The screws and
moving parts of the motor suspension should be lubricated with
machine oil approx. every two weeks. The electrical connections
should be checked monthly for corrosion. Replace defective
connections or cables immediately to avoid possible overheating.
After approx. 100 hours of operation, the graphite brushes of the
drive unit should be checked by Zebco Service. For longer-term
storage, make sure to keep the motor in a well-ventilated, dry
place. Do not leave the motor outdoors during the winter, as this
could cause damage to the magnet of the drive unit.
3.2Troubleshooting
Power loss
• Propeller possibly sti. Check if line or weeds are caught in the
screw. If this is the case, switch o the motor immediately to
avoid possible overheating.
• Check the charge level of the battery. Check the battery cells.
• Check the connections of the battery cable.
Power consumption too high
• Check propeller for stiness.
• Corrosion or short-circuit at cable connectors in the upper
motor housing.
• Check the battery cells.
Motor noise too loud and/or vibrations
• Check t and condition of the propeller; if necessary remount
the propeller oset by 180°.
• Bent shaft. Remove the propeller and run the motor at
medium speed, paying attention to shaft noises.
• If the shaft is bent, send the motor in for repair.
•Turn the propeller by hand, in case of stiness send in the
motor for servicing.
Motor is dicult to steer
(only when using the accessory tiller no. 9926128)
• Loosen and readjust the steering tension block screw and
