MOUNT FEATURES
illuminated when the motor is deployed. When the motor is
being either stowed or deployed, the red LED will be flashing.
System Ready Indicator
The System Ready Indicator is located on the Indicator Panel
on the base of the motor and works while the motor is
powered “on”. The LED associated with the System Ready
Indicator will be illuminated
green when the motor is operating. If the green light does not remain illuminated
after
power up, this is an indicator of insufficient voltage/power.
Motor Mount
The Motor Mount is designed to securely hold the motor in place on the deck of the boat. It functions to stow and lock the motor
flat on the deck when not in use by providing secure stowage for transport. The motor mount also positions the motor when it is
in the deployed position.
Mount Ramp
The Mount Ramp functions to hold the Lower Unit in place when the motor is stowed. The Lower Unit will rest on the Mount
Ramp when stowed, helping to secure it in place.
Emergency Strap
The Emergency Strap must be used to place pressure on the motor shaft to hold the lower unit tightly against the Motor Ramps
when the motor is manually stowed. The Emergency Strap should be secured every time the motor is manually stowed to
prevent damage from high wind, rough water or vibrations, including while the boat is trailered. See the “Manually Stowing the
Riptide Ulterra” section of the manual for more information on when the Emergency Strap is needed.
Belt Collar
The Belt Collar holds the lower portion of the Lift Belt in place. The Lift Belt is runs along the motor Shaft and is used to stow
and deploy the motor. See the “Adjusting the Left Belt” section of this manual if the Lift Belt becomes loose anywhere along the
Shaft above the Belt Collar.
WARNING
When stowing or deploying the motor, keep fingers clear of all
hinges, pivot points, pinch points and all moving parts.
WARNING
When the motor is being transported, it is important to always stow the Motor and make sure it is locked in place. A secure stow
holds the motor in place during transportation when it is subject to high levels of shock and vibration. Failure to stow the motor
may result in injury or damage to the unit.
WARNING
If a propeller encounters an obstruction while running, the increased electrical current being generated by the obstruction will
signal the motor to decrease the power to the propeller to prevent damage. If the current overload is detected for more than 20
seconds, the prop will be disabled to prevent damage to the motor. In this event, the operator can turn the prop back on after
being sure that the obstruction has been cleared.
