12 VOLT BATTERY WIRING:
We recommend that you hook the harness to the
boat battery on the 12 volt Lift Mate. The boat motor
is charging the battery all the time. It is unlikely that
the lift motor would drain the battery so you cannot
start your boat. Some use a separate 12v battery on
the dock. Try to hide the 15’ cable in the boat by
running it along the side channels, or below the
seats, or under the pontoon deck, or under the
carpet. See Fig. 17 & 18.
Longer cables (pontoon kits) are available at
Shoreline Industries. Refer to the parts list in the
back of the manual, the options list in the front of the
manual, or call your local retailer.
Mate the two plastic quick connects and lightly
attach the two lead ends (one with a circuit breaker
attached) to the battery poles. See Fig. 18. Flip the
motor switch “up” to see that the lift wheel rotates in
the “up” direction. If not, reverse the leads at the
battery and tighten down. See Fig. 17 & 18.
Note: The 12 volt motor is reversible by just
changing the leads at the battery.
The 60 AMP circuit breaker is attached to one of the
lead ends for safety. See Fig. 18. This breaker must
attach to the + pole.
110 VOLT WIRING
This unit uses a 110 volt 15 amp service. Make sure
the unit is connected to an outlet having the same
configuration as the plug. No adapter should be
used with this unit.
Caution: Before plugging in your unit
make sure it will be connected to a
supply circuit that is protected by a
circuit breaker.
Check with a qualified electrician if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood or you
are in doubt as to whether the motor is properly
grounded.
Caution: Always properly connect and
ground your unit. An improper
connection can cause an electrical
shock resulting in severe injury or
death. If you are unsure of the proper electrical
connections or grounding procedures, contact a
qualified electrician to perform the installation.
To reduce the risk of shock, this unit is equipped
with a ground fault interrupter (GFI) plug. See Fig.
19. The GFI plug must be plugged into a matching
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
