Wiring Instructions and Installation

WARNING:

Batteries contain a large amount of potential electrical energy. Extreme care

must be used when working with batteries. An improper connection to a

battery can release enough energy to cause severe injury or fire.

PLEASE READ THROUGH ALL ELECTRICAL INSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO

INSTALLATION AND WIRING.

Required for Installation and NOT included with this kit:

• 30 amp fuse with fuse holder ( Scotty part No. 1124)

Overcurrent Protection

The wiring between the battery and the receptacle must have proper overcurrent

protection in the form of an inline 30-amp fuse. It is this inline fuse that may

prevent an electrical fire in the event of a short circuit. Position the overcurrent

protection within 7” of the battery.

Wire Gauge

Use good quality marine grade tinned electrical wire to bring power to your

downrigger. To determine the correct gauge of wire, measure the “wire run length”

which is the distance from the positive (+) power source connection, to your

downrigger and back to the negative (-) power source connection. For wire run

lengths up to 25 feet, use minimum 12 Ga. wire, for runs of 25– 40 feet use 10 Ga.

wire. Wire smaller than the recommended gauge will not carry sufficient power to

operate your downrigger at its rated speed and power, it will run noticeably slower.

We Recommend:

Scotty premium 12 gauge, 2 Conductor Downrigger Power Wire (Scotty part

No. 1133) has been designed specifically for return runs of 25 feet or less. It is

manufactured with heavy duty, annealed, tinned copper which provides maximum

current flow and improved corrosion resistance.

NOTE: The downrigger should always be unplugged when not in use.
