Operating Manual BaseTravel 401/801
• Only run the motor when the propeller is under water. If it is run in the
air, the shaft sealant rings that seal the motor to the drive shaft are
damaged. If the motor is run in the air for a longer period, the motor
itself can overheat.
• After using the motor, it must be removed from the water. You can do
this using the tilt mechanism of the transom mount.
9.4 Battery adapter cable set including fuse
The electronics contained in the battery adapter cable set automatically recognize which
BaseTravel model is being used. That is why the BaseTravel 401 and 801 can be operated
with the same battery adapter cable set.
The battery adapter cable set is fitted with m-long cables that have a cross-section of
6mm
2
. This cross-section was selected to ensure that in the power range of the BaseTravel
motors, the cable losses are negligible and there is no danger of local overheating.
According to the applicable ISO directive for small water vehicles, electric drives must be
equipped with fuses and master switches.
The master switch of the BaseTravel is integrated in the positive connection terminal of
the cable set. This is a CF8 50 A fuse which you can obtain from your specialist dealer or
from Torqeedo Customer Services.
The removable battery adapter functions as the master switch of the BaseTravel.
Additionally, the battery adapter is equipped with a redundant undervoltage protection.
If the battery voltage drops to a very low level (BaseTravel 401: voltage < 7V, BaseTravel
801: voltage < 19V), the undervoltage protection completely cuts the current flow between
the battery and the motor. This prevents damaging overdischarging of the battery if the
battery adapter is not removed from the shaft head after use (master switch function).
• Do not short-circuit the contacts in the battery adapter.
• Do not submerge the adapter in water or other liquids.
