THROTTLE CONTROL
You have a range of 1-250 to adjust your speed. This does not correlate
to your actual GPS speed. Use an external GPS in order to get an accu-
rate speed reading for your situation.
Incremental Speed Adjustment
There are two buttons to control your speed, a rabbit icon for increasing
your speed and a turtle icon to decrease your speed. Press one time on
the corresponding button to change your speed in single increments.
Rapid Speed Adjustment
If you hold down on either speed button for two seconds your incre-
ments will increase by 10. Release the button and then press once
again to go back to increasing by single increments.
Feature buttons
These two buttons will allow you to max out the throttle control
[approx. 80% of factory throttle], or return to idle.
Max Throttle
To use this feature you need to depress and hold the Max Throttle
button. You will see ‘Max Throttle’ appear on the screen while it is being
held down, and your motor will increase speed and stay at that Max
Throttle as long as the button is held down. To return to your previous
speed setting, release the button.
Idle/Resume
To use this feature, press the Idle button. When you do, the throttle will
drop to the 000 setting and it will say ‘Idle 000’on the remote. To resume
your previous setting press the Idle button again. You will see‘Resume
XXX’. The XXX will be the setting you had last been congured for.
STEERING CONTROL
When your unit is connected to a Panther Electro Steer (sold sepa-
rately,) you are able to remotely steer your kicker motor. Press once on
the Left or Right Arrow button on the remote to move in small incre-
ments. If you hold down the button it will move in larger increments.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Packaged in the hardware kit that you purchased with your ProAngler
is an install manual that explains in detail how to Install your servo and
throttle rod.
2. Your wireless receiver needs to be placed in a location where it will not
be exposed to constant water exposure. A battery compartment, rod
box, anything similar would be a good location. Keep in mind that this
location also needs to allow for the wires to be able to reach the battery,
servo, steering, etc. As an additional consideration, the signal between
your remote and receiver is designed to work within a ~30ft (9.1m) range
even inside of an enclosed location. Once you nd a suitable location,
use the mounting holes and appropriate hardware to secure it.
3. The main power leads connect directly the 12V battery using the ring
connectors provided. Red to +ve terminal, Black to -ve terminal. The
positive wire includes a standard 15A ATO style blade fuse.
4. The ACC+ Switched power should be connected to a +ve 12V switched
power source at the helm station. When the outboard engine is not in
use, the switched power should be powered down.
5. The servo wire from your receiver needs to be routed to the servo
mounted on your kicker motor. NOTE: If you need an extension to your
servo cable, visit trollmasters.com and look for the Parts Shop link.
There is a 10ft (3m) extension available. To minimize the impact of EMI,
take care to route and secure servo cable as far away as practical from
the spark plug wires.
6. (Optional Steering Device) Route the steering cable 6ft (1.8m) from
your receiver to the location of your Panther Electro Steer motor and
connect the 2-Way molded connector until they are fully engaged. Do
not plug into the 3-way molded connector in an existing relay control.
7. NOTE: Keep in mind that depending on which side your electro steer is
mounted on your kicker motor the turn controls might be reversed. To
change this you can reverse the polarity of the connection. First, discon-
nect the unit from the battery. Then cut the wires between the receiver
and connector. Now reconnect the wires, but connect red to black and
black to red. Be sure to use proper connections, like Butt T splices or
wire nuts.
8. Pair your remote to your receiver. Push the pairing button on the
receiver and you will see a solid activity light. Then press any button on
the remote. Once the light goes o your remote is paired. It will always

LANYARD STOP SWITCH EXTENSION
The purpose of a lanyard stop switch is to turn o the engine when the
operator moves far enough away from the operator’s position (as in acci-
dental ejection from the operator’s position) to activate the switch. Please
refer to your Lanyard Stop Switch (or similar) section of your manual for
all information related to that safety feature. This documents is NOT a
replacement for that section of your owner’s manual.
With the TROLLMaster being a wireless solution you can move farther
than the standard lanyard length that is provided with a standard Lanyard
Stop Switch. This extension is provided in the package for you to be able
to move farther than the standard 122cm and 152cm (4 and 5 feet). This
extension should be connected to the clip end of the existing stop switch
lanyard and the other end clipped to the operator securely.
There are more robust solutions that can be used in place of the lanyard
extension if so desired. Doing an Internet search of “Wireless Marine
Safety Devices” would direct you to such items available. TROLLMaster
does not endorse or support any one solution.
One other item for safety to keep in mind is the use of the Steering Fric-
tion Control, especially on Tiller Steering outboards. This should be set
just high enough that the engine won’t turn on its own without input
from the operator, at any tilt position. If this is set too low and the opera-
tor lets go of the tiller (i.e., to grab a hat blowing o their head) the engine
can turn abruptly and possibly throw the operator out of the boat.
WARNING
To avoid serious injury or death due to ejection from
the boat, always attach the emergency safety switch
lanyard (with or without the extension) to the switch
& the operator. In addition always have the outboard
steering friction adjusted as instructed.
