BATTERY WIRING & INSTALLATION

BOAT RIGGING & PRODUCT INSTALLATION

For safety and compliance reasons, we recommend that you follow American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC) standards when rigging your boat. Altering boat wiring should be completed by a qualiﬁ ed marine technician. The following speciﬁ cations are for general guidelines only: CAUTION: These guidelines apply to general rigging to support your Minn Kota motor. Powering multiple motors or additional electrical devices from the same power circuit may impact the recommended conductor gauge and circuit breaker size. If you are using wire longer than that provided with your unit, follow the conductor gauge and circuit breaker sizing table below. If your wire extension length is more than 25 feet, we recommend that you contact a qualiﬁ ed marine technician. An over-current protection device (circuit breaker or fuse) must be used. Coast Guard requirements dictate that each ungrounded current-carrying conductor must be protected by a manually reset, trip-free circuit breaker or fuse. The type (voltage and current rating) of the fuse or circuit breaker must be sized accordingly to the trolling motor used. The table below gives recommended guidelines for circuit breaker sizing.

BATTERY WIRING & INSTALLATION

SELECTING THE CORRECT BATTERIES

The motor will operate with any lead acid, deep cycle marine 12 volt battery/batteries. For best results, use a deep cycle, marine battery with at least a 105 ampere hour rating. Maintain battery at full charge. Proper care will ensure having battery power when you need it, and will signiﬁ cantly improve the battery life. Failure to recharge lead-acid batteries (within 12-24 hours) is the leading cause of premature battery failure. Use a multi-stage charger to avoid overcharging. We oﬀ er a wide selection of chargers to ﬁ t your charging needs. If you are using a crank battery to start a gasoline outboard, we recommend that you use a separate deep cycle marine battery/batteries for your Minn Kota trolling motor.

Advice Regarding Batteries:

• Never connect the (+) and the (–) terminals of the same battery together. Take care that no metal object can fall onto the

battery and short the terminals. This would immediately lead to a short and extreme ﬁ re danger.

• It is highly recommended that a circuit breaker or fuse be used with this trolling motor. Refer to “Conductor Gauge and Circuit

Breaker Sizing Table” in the previous section to ﬁ nd the appropriate circuit breaker or fuse for your motor. For motors requiring a 60-amp breaker, the Minn Kota MKR-19 60-amp circuit breaker is recommended.

CONNECTING THE BATTERIES

12 VOLT SYSTEMS:

1. Make sure that the motor is switched oﬀ (speed selector on “OFF” or “0”).

2. Connect positive ( + ) red lead to positive ( + ) battery terminal.

3. Connect negative ( – ) black lead to negative ( – ) battery terminal.

4. For safety reasons do not switch the motor on until the propeller is in the water.

CAUTION: For safety reasons, disconnect the motor from the battery/batteries when the motor is not in use or while the battery/batteries are being charged.

CONNECTING THE BATTERIES IN SERIES (IF REQUIRED FOR YOUR MOTOR)

24 VOLT SYSTEMS:

1. Make sure that the motor is switched oﬀ (speed selector on “0”).

2. Two 12 volt batteries are required.

USING & ADJUSTING THE MOTOR

AUTOPILOT™ CONTROLS

(ON AUTOPILOT EQUIPPED MOTORS ONLY)

™

The Minn Kota AutoPilot you want to go. Each time the wind or water current moves the boat oﬀ course, the AutoPilot senses the change and steers itself back to the original heading. The AutoPilot direction is set every time a steering change is made. To change direction, steer until the control head points to the desired course. The AutoPilot will pull the bow of the boat around and correct automatically until the boat is moving in the direction you chose.

1. This unit has an automatic steering shutdown for safety. In conditions where an obstruction prevents the trolling motor from turning, or in extremely windy conditions, the automatic steering may stop. Any steering input will reset the system to normal.

2. When the AutoPilot is on and the trolling motor is pulled out of the water to the stow position, the steering motor will continue to run until the motor is stowed properly. Once the motor is stowed properly, AutoPilot will turn oﬀ and the System Ready indicator will go oﬀ .

3. This unit uses a magnetic compass to detect direction of travel. The compass can be adversely aﬀ ected by magnets or large, ferrous metal objects near (within 12” of) the trolling motor control head.

uses a magnetic compass and a microprocessor chip to keep the trolling motor pointed in the direction

4. After steering to a new direction, there is a short delay before the direction is locked in to allow the compass to stabilize.

5. Obstructions on the propeller may cause excessive vibration of the motor head. This vibration can cause the compass to wander and erratic steering to occur. Clear the obstruction to return the motor to normal operation.

6. When broad speed changes are made, the motor heading may change slightly. This is normal.

ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF THE MOTOR

When setting the depth be sure the top of the motor is submerged at least 12” to avoid churning or agitation of surface water. The propeller must be completely submerged.

1. With the motor deployed, ﬁ rmly grasp the composite shaft above the mount.

2. Loosen the adjustable depth collar until the shaft slides freely.

3. Raise or lower the motor to the desired depth.

4. Turn the motor control head to the desired position.
