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. Firmly grasp the composite shaft and hold it steady.
2. Loosen the steering tension knob and adjustable depth collar knob until
the shaft slides freely.
3. Raise or lower the motor to the desired depth.
4. Tighten adjustable depth collar knob to secure the motor in place.
CAUTION:
•
Never operate your motor when it is out of the water.
•
Over-tightening the clamp screws can damage the bracket.
•
Never loosen the steering tension knob without securely
holding the shaft of the motor. Failing to do so will cause the
motor to rapidly fall against the bracket.
ADJUSTING THE STEERING
• Adjust the steering tension knob to provide enough tension to allow the
motor to turn freely, yet remain in any position without being held
OR
• Tighten the knob to place the motor in a preset position to leave your
hands free for fi shing.
