BOAT RIGGING & PRODUCT INSTALLATION
For safety and compliance reasons, we recommend that you follow American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC) standards when
rigging your boat. Altering boat wiring should be completed by a qualified marine technician. The following specifications are for
general guidelines only:
CAUTION: These guidelines apply to general rigging to support your Minn Kota motor. Powering multiple motors or additional
electrical devices from the same power circuit may impact the recommended conductor gauge and circuit breaker size. If you are
using wire longer than that provided with your unit, follow the conductor gauge and circuit breaker sizing table below. If your wire
extension length is more than 25 feet, we recommend that you contact a qualified marine technician.
An over-current protection device (circuit breaker or fuse) must be used. Coast Guard requirements dictate that
each ungrounded current-carrying conductor must be protected by a manually reset, trip-free circuit breaker or fuse. The type
(voltage and current rating) of the fuse or circuit breaker must be sized accordingly to the trolling motor used. The table below gives
recommended guidelines for circuit breaker sizing.

3. No more than 5% voltage drop allowed at full motor power based on published product power requirements.
*Wire Extension Length refers to the distance from the batteries to the trolling motor leads.
BATTERY WIRING & INSTALLATION
PUSH-TO-TEST BATTERY METER
This motor is equipped with a “push-to-test” battery meter. The LED provides an accurate
display of the remaining charge in the battery. It is only accurate when the motor is off.
The meter reads as:
• One light indicates recharge.
• Two lights indicate low charge.
• Three lights indicate good charge.
• Four lights indicate full charge.

BATTERY WIRING & INSTALLATION
CONNECTING THE BATTERIES IN SERIES (IF REQUIRED FOR YOUR MOTOR)
24 VOLT SYSTEMS:
1. Make sure that the motor is switched off (speed selector on “0”).
2. Two 12 volt batteries are required.
3. The batteries must be wired in series, only as directed in wiring
diagram, to provide 24 volts.
a. Connect a connector cable to the positive ( + ) terminal of
battery 1 and to the negative ( – ) terminal of battery 2.
b. Connect positive ( + ) red motor lead to
positive ( + ) terminal on battery 2.
c. Connect negative ( – ) black motor lead to
negative ( – ) terminal of battery 1.
4. For safety reasons do not switch the motor on until the propeller is in the water. If installing a leadwire plug, observe proper
polarity and follow instructions in your boat owner’s manual. See wiring diagram on following pages.
CAUTION
• For safety reasons, disconnect the motor from the battery or batteries when the motor is not in use or while
the battery/batteries are being charged.
• Improper wiring of 24/36 volt systems could cause battery explosion!
• Keep leadwire wing nut connections tight and solid to battery terminals.
• Locate battery in a ventilated compartment.

SELECTING THE CORRECT BATTERIES
The motor will operate with any lead acid, deep cycle marine 12 volt battery/batteries. For best results, use a deep cycle, marine
battery with at least a 105 ampere hour rating. Maintain battery at full charge. Proper care will ensure having battery power
when you need it, and will significantly improve the battery life. Failure to recharge lead-acid batteries (within 12-24 hours) is the
leading cause of premature battery failure. Use a multi-stage charger to avoid overcharging. We offer a wide selection of chargers
to fit your charging needs. If you are using a crank battery to start a gasoline outboard, we recommend that you use a separate
deep cycle marine battery/batteries for your Minn Kota trolling motor.
Advice Regarding Batteries:
• Never connect the (+) and the (–) terminals of the same battery together. Take care that no metal object can fall onto the
battery and short the terminals. This would immediately lead to a short and extreme fire danger.
• It is highly recommended that a circuit breaker or fuse be used with this trolling motor. Refer to “Conductor Gauge and Circuit
Breaker Sizing Table” in the previous section to find the appropriate circuit breaker or fuse for your motor. For motors requiring
a 60-amp breaker, the Minn Kota MKR-19 60-amp circuit breaker is recommended.
CONNECTING THE BATTERIES
12 VOLT SYSTEMS:
1. Make sure that the motor is switched off (speed selector on “OFF” or “0”).
2. Connect positive ( + ) red lead to positive ( + ) battery terminal.
3. Connect negative ( – ) black lead to negative ( – ) battery terminal.
4. For safety reasons do not switch the motor on until the propeller is in the water.
CAUTION:
For safety reasons, disconnect the motor from the battery/batteries when the motor is not in use or while the
battery/batteries are being charged.

USING & ADJUSTING THE MOTOR
STOWING AND DEPLOYING THE MOTOR
WARNING:
When raising or lowering the motor, keep fingers clear of all hinge and pivot points and all moving parts.
DEPLOY-ASSIST LEVER OPERATION:
1. Loosen the depth collar screw.
2. Push Deploy-Assist Lever down.
3. Push motor out.
4. Tighten the depth collar screw.
TO DEPLOY THE MOTOR
Loosen the Dept Collar screw, then push firmly down on the Deploy-Assist Lever to release the collar and slide the motor
forward, out from the ramp. Lower the motor to the desired depth. Make sure it clicks into a secure, vertical position.
TO STOW THE MOTOR
Push down on the Tilt Lock Lever and raise the motor by pulling up on the composite shaft or control head. Pull the motor toward
the stern until it rests securely on the ramp and the Deploy-Assist Lever captures the latch collar. Slide the depth collar down and
secure it against the top of the steering housing to secure the motor in place and prevent accidental deployment.
TRANSPORTATION
In conditions where the stowed motor is subject to high levels of shock or vibration, take care to provide a secure stow. Move the
depth collar snug against the steering motor and tighten.
TO ADJUST THE LATCH COLLAR
The latch collar is adjustable. If needed, loosen the Phillips head screw and rotate the collar up or down to re-align the latch and
collar. The ideal adjustment is a slightly loose fit that completely captures the collar.

USING & ADJUSTING THE MOTOR
AUTOPILOT™ CONTROLS
(ON AUTOPILOT EQUIPPED MOTORS ONLY)
The Minn Kota AutoPilot™uses a magnetic compass and a microprocessor chip to keep the trolling motor pointed in the direction
you want to go. Each time the wind or water current moves the boat off course, the AutoPilot senses the change and steers itself
back to the original heading. The AutoPilot direction is set every time a steering change is made. To change direction, steer until
the control head points to the desired course. The AutoPilot will pull the bow of the boat around and correct automatically until
the boat is moving in the direction you chose.
1. This unit has an automatic steering shutdown for safety. In conditions where an obstruction prevents the trolling motor from
turning, or in extremely windy conditions, the automatic steering may stop. Any steering input will reset the system to normal.
2. When the AutoPilot is on and the trolling motor is pulled out of the water to the stow position, the steering motor will continue
to run until the motor is stowed properly. Once the motor is stowed properly, AutoPilot will turn off and the System Ready
indicator will go off.
3. This unit uses a magnetic compass to detect direction of travel. The compass can be adversely affected by magnets or large,
ferrous metal objects near (within 12” of) the trolling motor control head.
4. After steering to a new direction, there is a short delay before the direction is locked in to allow the compass to stabilize.
5. Obstructions on the propeller may cause excessive vibration of the motor head. This vibration can cause the compass to
wander and erratic steering to occur. Clear the obstruction to return the motor to normal operation.
6. When broad speed changes are made, the motor heading may change slightly. This is normal.
ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF THE MOTOR
When setting the depth be sure the top of the motor is submerged
at least 12” to avoid churning or agitation of surface water. The
propeller must be completely submerged.
1. With the motor deployed, firmly grasp the composite shaft above
the mount.
2. Loosen the adjustable depth collar until the shaft slides freely.
3. Raise or lower the motor to the desired depth.
4. Turn the motor control head to the desired position.
5. Tighten adjustable depth collar to secure the motor in place.

2. When the AutoPilot is on and the trolling motor is pulled out of the water to the stow position, the steering motor will continue
to run. Turn off the AutoPilot switch to stop the motor. If the switch is left on, the steering motor will shut off automatically
after 10 seconds. The motor should not be sored in this condition for long periods as power is still being applied to all
eletronics. Always turn the Autopilot switch off and disconnect your motor from the battery when storing your boat.
AUTOPILOT™ CONTROLS
(ON AUTOPILOT EQUIPPED MOTORS ONLY)
The Minn Kota AutoPilot™uses a magnetic compass and a microprocessor chip to keep the trolling motor pointed in the direction
you want to go. Each time the wind or water current moves the boat off course, the AutoPilot senses the change and steers itself
back to the original heading. The AutoPilot direction is set every time a steering change is made. To change direction, steer until
the control head points to the desired course. The AutoPilot will pull the bow of the boat around and correct automatically until
the boat is moving in the direction you chose.
1. This unit has an automatic steering shutdown for safety. In conditions where an obstruction prevents the trolling motor from
turning, or in extremely windy conditions, the automatic steering may stop. Any steering input will reset the system to normal.
2. When the AutoPilot is on and the trolling motor is pulled out of the water to the stow position, the steering motor will continue
to run until the motor is stowed properly. Once the motor is stowed properly, AutoPilot will turn off and the System Ready
indicator will go off.
3. This unit uses a magnetic compass to detect direction of travel. The compass can be adversely affected by magnets or large,
ferrous metal objects near (within 12” of) the trolling motor control head.
4. After steering to a new direction, there is a short delay before the direction is locked in to allow the compass to stabilize.
5. Obstructions on the propeller may cause excessive vibration of the motor head. This vibration can cause the compass to
wander and erratic steering to occur. Clear the obstruction to return the motor to normal operation.
6. When broad speed changes are made, the motor heading may change slightly. This is normal.
NOTE: Always turn the AutoPilot switch off and disconnect your motor from the battery when storing your boat.

INSTALLING AN EXTERNAL TRANSDUCER
An external sonar transducer can be installed onto the motor as shown.
1. Transducer cables should be routed through the coil cable as
depicted in the illustration to the right.
2. Leave enough slack for proper stow and deploy.
3. Mount transducer according to transducer instructions.
Note: An external transducer is not included with your trolling motor.
Your trolling motor may be pre-installed with a Universal Sonar 2
transducer system. In this case, the transducer is integrated into the
motor unit.

USING & ADJUSTING THE MOTOR

All the controls in the foot pedal are easy to operate by either foot or hand. A light touch is all that is necessary.
MOMENTARY
A toe touch on the momentary button turns the propeller
on. Let up and the propeller stops.
MOMENTARY/CONSTANT (MOM/CON) SWITCH
When the switch is in CON position the motor will run
continuously without keeping your foot on the pedal. Slide
the switch to momentary (MOM) to again operate the
motor with toe touch.
RIGHT/LEFT
Place your foot in the center of the steering pedal, rocking
to the right steers right. Rocking to the left steers left.
The heel of your foot can also be placed on the deck of the
boat. Using your heel to pivot on, depress and hold the
center momentary to turn the motor on or depress and hold the left or right side of the pedal to steer left or right.
NOTE: The steering system is designed to turn your motor 360°. Be careful to avoid over-wrapping the coil cord around the
composite shaft.
FORWARD/REVERSE
The propeller always turns in the forward direction. You can reverse the direction of thrust by turning the motor 180˚.
SPEED CONTROL
The speed selector is the calibrated sliding bar located on the right side of the foot pedal. The speed selector provides variable
speed control with the built in pulse modulation system. Use your hand or foot to slide the bar forward to increase speed. Draw
the bar back to decrease speed. The slider also contains a roller to aid in fine speed adjustment. Slide your foot over the roller
with light down pressure to adjust speed. The motor may not start turning until the speed slider reaches speeds 1 or 2. This
depends on manufacturing tolerances and if the CoPilot accessory is installed.
NON-CARPETED BOAT USE
Enclosed with your motor are four (4) rubber bumpers. If the foot pedal is to be used primarily on non-carpeted surfaces, insert
the rubber bumpers into the keyhole slots on the underside of the pedal. Slide the bumpers into the slot until they are locked into
position.

It is the intention of JOME to be a responsible corporate citizen, operating in compliance with known and applicable
environmental regulations, and a good neighbor in the communities where we make or sell our products.

disposal during the product life cycle.
WEEE compliance may not be required in your location for electrical & electronic equipment (EEE), nor may it be required
for EEE designed and intended as fixed or temporary installation in transportation vehicles such as
automobiles, aircraft, and boats. In some European Union member states, these vehicles are considered
outside of the scope of the Directive, and EEE for those applications can be considered excluded from the
WEEE Directive requirement.

in the collection, treatment, recovery, and environmentally sound disposal of those products; however, these requirement do
vary within European Union member states. For more information about where you should dispose of your waste equipment for
recycling and recovery and/or your European Union member state requirements, please contact your dealer or distributor from
which your product was purchased.
