GETTING STARTED
Your Talon can store 10 total remote IDs. If 10 IDs have been learned to the Talon unit and an eleventh
remote is learned, the first ID learned will be overwritten with the eleventh remote ID. The new remote
will be learned, the oldest will be erased.
TO LEARN A NEW REMOTE ID
1. Retract the anchor if it is not already
retracted by pressing the Auto UP switch .
2. After the anchor has retracted, press and
hold the Auto UP switch on the Talon.
A steady tone will be heard.
3. While continuing to press the Auto UP
switch , press the UP button
on the new remote one time.
4. A series of 3 beeps will be heard,
indicating the new remote has been learned.
5. Release the Auto UP switch on the
Talon after the 3 beeps begin.
TO ERASE ALL STORED REMOTE IDS
(THIS MAY REQUIRE ASSISTANCE FROM
A SECOND PERSON)
1. Retract the anchor if it is not already retracted.
2. Disconnect the white power lead from
the battery.
3. Press and hold the Auto UP switch
on the Talon.
4. While continuing to press the Auto UP
switch , reconnect the white power lead
to the battery.
5. A series of fast beeps will be heard and then
a long steady tone .
6. Release the Auto UP switch after the
long steady tone has begun. All remote
IDs are now erased.
Your Talon comes direct from the factory with two remotes pre-programmed to
your unit. Each remote includes a lanyard that may be attached to either end of
the remote to suit your preference. The remote has two buttons: UP and DOWN.
To Deploy: Press the DOWN button twice within ½ second.
To Retract: Press the UP button once.
To Stop: Press the UP button once or DOWN button twice within ½ second.
Each remote uses a CR2032 size lithium coin cell battery. See page 13 for instructions
on how to replace the battery.

DEPLOY
Raising and lowering your Talon can be done wirelessly from
anywhere in the boat using your remote or directly through the
control panel. Two button presses (within ½ second) of the remote
DOWN button or one button press of the control panel
Auto DOWN button automatically deploys the anchor.
RETRACT
One button press of the remote UP button or control
panel Auto UP button automatically raises the anchor to the
retracted position. Talon shuts off automatically when completely
retracted. There is no need to hold down a switch or button.
Talon’s revolutionary Auto-Drive feature
stops your boat with greater speed and
precision than the competition. Two button
presses (within ½ second) of the remote
DOWN button not only deploys your
anchor automatically, but Talon actually
drives the anchor in for you to ensure the
anchor is seated. Talon’s Auto-Drive deploy
shuts the anchor off when the spike contacts
the bottom. Auto-Drive will automatically
power the spike into the bottom with three
successive hits, using increasing force on
each hit.

DEPLOY
Talon shows your deployed status of the anchor via the high
visibility LED display on your control panel. It will display one
light for every two feet of deployment and the current depth
indicator will blink while in motion until it reaches the next
full increment. Know the immediate status of your anchor, or
deploy the Talon to a specific length for stopping during drift.
Talon enables your boat to move up or down
without affecting the anchor. It uses a built-in
floating suspension to keep your boat locked
to the bottom, even in rough water conditions.

In the event of a power failure or other occurrence where the Talon cannot be retracted in the normal
manner, your Talon can be manually retracted.
Minn Kota recommends keeping a ⁄" socket and socket wrench in your boat, as they are required
for the manual retraction procedure.
TO MANUALLY RETRACT
1. Press and HOLD the UP button on the control panel until you hear 3 successive beeps .
2. Remove protective rubber cap to access the manual retraction hex-drive. Using a ⁄" socket
wrench crank the hex feature (shown below) in a clockwise direction.
3. Continue to crank the hex feature until the Talon is fully retracted. Visually confirm (at the base of
the unit) that the spike has fully retracted.
4. IMPORTANT: Once you have confirmed that the Talon is now fully retracted, you must turn the
manual retract mode OFF BEFORE using your Talon again. To do this, press the UP button on
the control panel one time. You will hear the same 3 beep sequence confirming that the manual
retraction mode has been turned OFF.

ROUGH WATER MODE
Red mode LED illuminated . Auto Deploy
will initiate the 3x3-hit sequence with maximum
down-force power.
Note: If power is cycled to the Talon, Talon will “remember” if it was last in
“Standard Mode” or “Soft Bottom Mode,” and will return to that last known
mode. However, if it is left in “Rough Water Mode,” and power is cycled, it will
default to “Standard Mode.” This is done to prevent Talon from unnecessarily
over-anchoring.
SOFT BOTTOM MODE
Green mode LED illuminated . Auto Deploy will initiate
a single hit sequence only, at reduced power.
3x
IMPORTANT: Talon is capable of anchoring in any condition
and it is important to select the right anchoring mode. During
calm conditions, or on water with muddy or soft sandy bottoms,
SOFT BOTTOM mode will prevent over-anchoring.

The Deployment Notification Alarm will emit a tone each time you turn the ignition key to the
ON position if the anchor is not retracted. This alarm reminds you that your Talon is still deployed.
Taking off with the Talon in the deployed position could cause damage to your anchor or boat which
will not be covered by warranty.
NOTE: Deployment Notification Alarm is required to be installed to comply with warranty requirements.
Your Talon is equipped with a built-in Retraction Notification Alarm to protect the lift motor. If the lift
capacity of the motor is exceeded – OR – the motor takes more than 10 seconds to retract, the motor
will stop and notify you with a series of three triple beeps (...–...–...) .
The most common reasons for the Retraction Notification Alarm sounding are: 1) because of an
extremely soft or muddy bottom, and the spike is deeply buried and cannot retract on its own;
or 2) there may be an excessive amount of side load on the spike, generally due to fast moving
water currents or wind.
IF THE RETRACTION NOTIFICATION ALARM IS EMITTED,
THE FOLLOWING STEPS SHOULD BE TAKEN TO
RETRACT THE ANCHOR
Press the UP button on the remote or control panel.
If the anchor does not raise within two attempts:
1. Loosen the spike from the bottom by CAREFULLY
shifting the boat back and forth using the main engine
power, then attempting to raise the anchor again. This
is especially useful if you are fishing in a soft or muddy
bottom structure.*
2. Remove any excessive side loads on the anchor as
described above. This generally requires backing against
the current (or direction of the load) then attempting to
retract the anchor again with side loads removed.
*IF THIS IS TYPICAL FOR THE AREAS YOU FISH, WE
STRONGLY RECOMMEND USING THE SOFT BOTTOM MODE
TO PREVENT OVER-ANCHORING.
OTHER REASONS FOR THE
RETRACTION NOTIFICATION ALARM
MAY INCLUDE
1. Battery power is low. This may
induce a retraction time greater
than 10 seconds.
2. Obstructions on the anchor
preventing it from retracting.
In the event the anchor cannot be
retracted normally, please refer to
page 9 of this booklet for the manual
retraction procedure.

QUICK REMOVAL ACCESSORIES
If you intend to remove or adjust your Talon frequently, you might consider installing the following
accessory kits: Quick Release Handle Kit (1810232) and Talon Quick Disconnect Plug (1810240). For
accessory information, refer to page 18.
TO REMOVE
1. Prior to removal, make sure the Talon is fully
retracted, and the power cable is completely free
from all routing restraints and fully disconnected from
power. This includes any connections made for the
Deployment Notification Alarm (green wire).
NOTE: Disconnection from power can be made easier by using the Talon Quick Disconnect
Plug accessory, see page 18.
CAUTION: Be sure that the top stop nut assembly is tight BEFORE attempting
to remove the Talon from the mounting bracket.
2. Using a ⁄" box end wrench or socket wrench,
carefully loosen the four (4) vertical adjustment nuts.
NOTE: DO NOT REMOVE the four (4) vertical adjustment nuts to prevent them from being
misplaced. They only need to be loosened to remove the Talon from the mount. Nuts are
shown here removed for illustration purposes only.
3. Slide the Talon Assembly up until it clears the
mounting straps.
4. Be sure to retighten the vertical adjustment nuts
on the mounting straps in the mounting bracket
to prevent them from rattling during transport, and
to protect the threads.
IMPORTANT: When reinstalling Talon, it is important to check the tension of the four (4)
vertical adjustment nuts after their initial use, and periodically thereafter to ensure they
maintain their recommended torque of 30 ft lb.

REMOTE BATTERY REPLACEMENT
CLEANING THE UNIT
SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
Minn Kota recommends as part of your normal routine, to rinse the Talon to minimize any build up
on the anchor. Following one of the rinse practices listed below is recommended after every use.
30 SECOND DEEP WATER RINSE. (RECOMMENDED)
1. Before docking / trailering your boat, enter into water depths that exceed
the depth capacity of your Talon in an area free of obstructions.
2. Double click the DOWN button on the remote to auto deploy
the Talon to full extension.
3. Place the main engine into gear AT IDLE ONLY.
4. Single click the UP button on the remote.
EXTENDED HOSE RINSE
1. Lay the Talon down and extend fully.
2. For simplicity, we suggest using a Talon Tilt Bracket accessory (part number 1810222).
Otherwise, remove the Talon from the mounting bracket and lay down to extend for rinsing.
3. Rinse the sections of the Talon thoroughly while extended.
4. Retract the Talon, and return it to its upright installed position.

14 | minnkotamotors.com ©2014 Johnson Outdoors Marine Electronics, Inc.
The spike for your Talon comes with a lifetime guarantee, with two years of labor covered for repair.
See the warranty section of the manual for further details.
TO REPLACE
1. Extend the spike out so that the second stage
begins to exit the bottom of the anchor. This may
require removing the anchor from the mounting
bracket, and laying the anchor horizontally or on a
flat surface.
NOTE: The 12' and 10' Talon Tilt Bracket accessory (part number 1810222)
is available to make this process easier. With this accessory, you don’t have
to remove the Talon from the mount to replace the spike.
2. You will need to remove two (2) retainer pins in
order to replace the spike. First remove the spike
isolator restrainer pin, and slide the spike isolator
out from the bottom of the second stage. Next,
remove the spike retainer pin.
3. Remove the spike from the anchor. (You will not
need to retain the O-ring from the spike you are
replacing. The new spike will include a
replacement O-ring.)
4. Place the new spike into position along with the
replacement O-ring. When the spike is fully seated
into the anchor, the O-ring should be slid up to the
face of where the spike is held. Be sure to align
the retainer groove on the spike with the retainer
pin hole.
5. Slide the spike isolator up the spike and into the
second stage. Carefully replace the spike isolator
retainer pin.
6. Carefully replace the spike retainer pin, making sure
the ends of the pin are recessed on both sides.

FULLY ADJUSTABLE BRACKETS
With a universal design that fits any transom, our
brackets can be adjusted and tweaked to the perfect
orientation. And once you’ve got Talon where you want
it, interlocking teeth clamp down to lock it into place.
CHOOSING YOUR BRACKET
Selecting the right Talon bracket is as easy as
1–2…well that’s it.
JUST ANSWER THESE TWO QUESTIONS
TO FIND THE BRACKET YOU NEED
1. Do You Need an Adapter Bracket?
This depends on whether you have a
flat or curved transom. If you have a flat
transom, we recommend mounting Talon
directly to the transom (all hardware is
included for this) without an adapter
bracket. If you have a curved transom,
you’ll need an adapter bracket.
2. If You Do Need a Bracket, Which Kind?
There are two types of Talon adapter
brackets: Jack Plate and Sandwich-Style.
