TESTING
AND OPERATION
15
TESTING:
When the rigging and mounting is complete, the motor should be tested to make sure everything is oper-
ating properly. Follow these steps:
1). Make sure that all objects and people are away from the prop.
2). Turn the master switch to the on position and visually confirm the LCD display is on. Slowly move
the throttle forward to a slow running position. If everything is hooked up correctly, the prop will turn
clock-wise as you view the motor from inside the boat.
3). Now move the throttle lever to the center detent position to stop the prop rotation.
4) Slowly move the lever to a slow reverse position. If everything is hooked up correctly, the prop will
turn counter-clockwise as you view the motor from inside the boat.
5) Now move the throttle lever to the center detent position to stop the prop rotation.
6) Test the tilt up/down switches to verify function.
7) Turn master to the off position.
8) Do not operate tilt switch while propeller is turning. This can cause premature failure of the actuator.
OPERATION:
1) Turn the master switch to the ON position.
2) Using the tilt up/down switch, raise the motor up, disengage tilt lock arm and lower motor for use.
3) Select either a forward or reverse direction and slowly move the throttle away from neutral.
4) Steering is easy. Use your boats steering wheel to turn the e-drive motor left or right.
5) To stop the propeller, you may either place the throttle lever in the neutral position or turn the master
switch to the off position.
6) When not in use, the master switch should be turned to the OFF position to completely shut the
motor down. With the master switch on, a very small amount of electricity is always being drawn.
To reduce the drain on the batteries, the off position on the master switch should be used.
