BOW MOUNT OPERATION
Raise motor
1
To raise the fishing motor out of the water into the stow
position, pull on the rope handle and raise motor until it lays
down into stowed position.
Lower motor
To lower the motor into the water from the stowed position,
lift up the motor using pull rope handle and lower motor down
into water.
Adjust steering tension:
(Hand operated motors only.)
2
Loosen the steering tension knob until the motor shaft slides
freely.
Adjust motor depth:
(Hand operated motors only.) Position the depth adjustment
collar so the propeller blades will be submerged
(15 to 30 cm) 6 to 12 inches below the water surface.
(Foot operated motors only) Loosen the hinge door knob
and adjust the motor height so the propeller blades will be
submerged (15 to 30 cm) 6 to 12 inches below the water
surface.
Adjust breakaway knobs on side of mount so motor will
breakaway when encountering underwater obstacles. Do
not lubricate the breakaway handle or overtighten!
SPECIAL NOTE FOR 07 STANDARD BOW: It is normal for
the bow arms to bow out slightly and flex when motor is
placed in the stow position. The mount is designed this
way in order to keep pressure on the trolling motor during
rough water situations.
