ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Before connecting the motor’s cables to the battery
terminals, ensure all switches are in the OFF position and
stand clear of the propeller.
Connect the red cable to the positive (+) terminal and the
black cable to the negative (-) terminal, making sure the
terminals are clean before doing so. A clean connection
will minimise power wastage and give you maximum power
from the battery.
Please Note: for best performance please keep battery
terminals and connections clean.
There are a number of different methods of connecting
battery leads to your deep cycle battery. Your Watersnake
motor is supplied as standard with ring type terminal
connectors although this can be changed to suit your
particular set up. If fi tting different terminal connectors
ensure that connections are soldered and sealed
appropriately. It is recommended to use heat shrink to
seal any exposed joins in wiring or connectors. Any non-
standard terminal connections must be capable of handling
a minimum of 50 amps. Anderson plugs are a popular
choice amongst many Watersnake motor owners and are
readily available.
The Advance range of brushless motors do not require a
circuit breaker or fuse because they have a safety
(protection) feature built in.
We recommend using a deep cycle marine battery for
optimum performance.
WARNING:
Your motor MUST NOT be connected to the battery
while the battery is being charged. This includes any sort of
alternator system. You must disconnect your Watersnake motor
before every charge. Failure to do so will void your warranty.
