DEPTH ADJUSTMENT
Hold the motor shaft with one hand, loosen the depth collar adjustment screw
and set the motor to the desired depth. Then retighten the adjusting screw on
the depth collar securely.
STOWING
When your Watersnake motor is not in use always stow and store it properly.
DEEP CYCLE BATTERIES
A deep cycle marine battery is required for normal operation and continued
use of your Watersnake motor. Deep cycle marine batteries are constructed
using thicker plates and a denser active material. They are built to withstand
repeated charge and recharge cycles. Deep cycle marine batteries are
specifi cally designed to deliver sustained power with low current draw over
extended periods of time. Car / Truck / Motorcyle batteries are not designed
in the same way and are more useful for providing high bursts of power for
short periods. Use of car / truck / motorcycle batteries can cause damage to
electronic components within your Watersnake motor.

The Battery Power Leads prefi tted to the Advance Motors are 8 AWG Guage.
VOLTAGE DROP
Voltage Drop can be an issue that is encountered if the Battery Power Leads
need to be extended due to existing or a preferred battery location on the water
craft you are fi tting the motor to. To avoid voltage drop, it is usual to adjust the
cable gauge down (use larger cable) from the Power Leads that come pre-fi tted
to the motor. If you are planning to extend the Battery Power Leads that are
pre-fi tted to the motor, then we recommend you follow the suggestions in the
table above or seek advice from local electrical supplier. Failure to do so will
affect motors performance and void warranty.
Note that above table is intended as a guide only. Your local electrical supplier will
be able to advise in greater detail based on your particular set up and requirements.
