WARRANTY INFORMATION
MotorGuide Two Year Limited Warranty
KEEP YOUR ORIGINAL PURCHASE RECEIPT OR BILL OF SALE.
1. For recreational use customers, MotorGuide electric trolling motors are
warranted to the original retail purchaser to be free from defects in
material or workmanship for a period of two years from the date of
purchase.
2. To obtain warranty service, the purchaser should deliver or return the unit
(postage prepaid and insured) to any MotorGuide authorized service
dealer. DO NOT RETURN TO PLACE OF PURCHASE unless they are
an authorized service center. Products returned by mail should be
carefully packaged and include a note describing the nature of the
problem and/or service requested, customer address, and phone number.
A copy of the receipt, bill of sale, registration verification or other proof of
purchase is required with the return of the product for warranty
consideration. Warranty claims will not be accepted without presentation
of purchase receipt for the trolling motor, other verification of registration,
or bill of sale for a boat package.
3. MotorGuide, at its discretion, will repair or replace items covered under
the terms of this warranty. Neither MotorGuide nor MotorGuide service
dealers are responsible for damages to MotorGuide products due to
repairs performed by anyone other than an authorized MotorGuide
service dealer. Neither MotorGuide nor Attwood is responsible for failure
or damage caused by improper installation, set‑up, preparation, or
previous service or repair errors.
4. For commercial use and government use customers, MotorGuide electric
trolling motors are warranted to the original retail purchaser to be free
from defects in material or workmanship for one (1) year. Commercial use
is defined as any work or employment‑related use of the product, or any
use of the product which generates income, for any part of the warranty
period, even if the product is only occasionally used for such purpose
such as rental fleets, guides, fish camps or similar operations. Warranty is
not transferable to any subsequent purchaser. The Mercury Product
Protection plan is not available to commercial use or government use
customers.
5. MotorGuide Composite Shaft Limited Lifetime Warranty. MotorGuide

WARRANTY INFORMATION
6. Warranty coverage is available to customers that purchase from an
authorized dealer or retailer that is authorized by MotorGuide Marine to
distribute the product in the country in which the sale occurred. Warranty
coverage and duration varies by the country in which the owner resides.
This Limited Warranty begins on the date the product is first sold to a
purchaser or the date on which the product is first put into service,
whichever occurs first. MotorGuide accessories are covered by this
Limited Warranty for a coverage period of one (1) year from the date of
retail sale. The repair or replacement of parts, or the performance of
service under this warranty, does not extend the life of this warranty
beyond its original expiration date. Promotional warranties are not

wear or damage caused by an owner’s failure to provide reasonable and
necessary installation or care; 3) use of an accessory or part not
manufactured by MotorGuide or Attwood; 4) alteration or removal of parts;
5) opening the lower unit (motor) by anyone other than an authorized
MotorGuide service center will void this warranty.
8. We reserve the right to improve the design of any trolling motor without
assuming any obligation to modify any trolling motor previously
manufactured.

warranty. Non‑serialized "Service‑Repair" electric trolling motors are NOT
warranted. "Service‑Repair" motor denotes a trolling motor sold by

"Service‑Repair" motors have a blue sticker on the battery cable and box
denoting "Manufacturer Certified Service‑Repair Motor."

GENERAL INFORMATION AND COMPONENT
IDENTIFICATION
Boater's Responsibilities
The operator (driver) is responsible for the correct and safe operation of the
boat and safety of its occupants and general public. It is strongly recommended
that each operator (driver) read and understand this entire manual before
operating the trolling motor.
Be sure at least one additional person on board is instructed in the basic
operation of the trolling motor in case the driver is unable to operate the boat.
Protecting People in the Water
WHILE YOU ARE TROLLING
It is difficult for a person in the water to take quick action to avoid a boat
heading in their direction, even at slow speeds.
Always slow down and exercise extreme caution any time you are boating in an
area where there might be people in the water.
WHILE THE BOAT IS STATIONARY
WARNING
!
A spinning propeller, a moving boat, or any solid device attached to the boat
can cause serious injury or death to swimmers. Stop the trolling motor
immediately whenever anyone in the water is near your boat.
Shut off the trolling motor before allowing people to swim or be in the water
near your boat.
Passenger Safety Message
Whenever the boat is in motion, observe the location of all passengers. A
sudden reduction in boat speed, such as a sharp change of boat direction,
could throw them off the boat.
Safe Boating Suggestions
In order to safely enjoy the waterways, familiarize yourself with local and other
governmental boating regulations and restrictions, and consider the following
suggestions.
Use flotation devices. It is the law to have an approved personal flotation
device of suitable size for each person aboard and have it readily accessible.
6 eng
GENERAL INFORMATION AND COMPONENT
IDENTIFICATION
Do not overload your boat. Most boats are rated and certified for maximum
load (weight) capacities, refer to your boat capacity plate. If in doubt, contact
your dealer or the boat's manufacturer.
Perform safety checks and required maintenance. Follow a regular
schedule and ensure all repairs are made properly.
Never be under the influence of alcohol or drugs while boating (it is the
law). Alcohol or drug use impairs your judgment and greatly reduces your
ability to react quickly.
Passenger boarding. Stop the trolling motor whenever passengers are
boarding or unloading.
Be alert. The operator of the boat is responsible by law to maintain a proper
lookout by sight and hearing. The operator must have an unobstructed view
particularly to the front. No passengers, load, or fishing seats should block the
operators view when operating the boat.
Underwater hazards. Reduce speed and proceed with caution whenever
navigating in shallow water.
Tripping hazards. To avoid a trip hazard, route all cables and wiring neatly
and out of the way.
Report accidents. Boat operators are required by law to file a Boating
Accident Report with their state boating law enforcement agency when their
boat is involved in certain boating accidents. A boating accident must be
reported if 1) there is loss of life or probable loss of life, 2) there is personal
injury requiring medical treatment beyond first aid, 3) there is damage to boats
or other property where the damage value exceeds $500.00 or 4) there is
complete loss of the boat. Seek further assistance from local law enforcement.

PRODUCT INSTALLATION, WIRING, AND BATTERY
INFORMATION
Installing the Trolling Motor
1. Remove the two side panel screws from each side of the deck mount.
Gently pull the side panels away from the deck mount, taking care not to
damage the locating tabs, and remove the side panels from both sides of
the trolling motor.
a - Side panel screws
b - Locating tab
2. If you are replacing an existing MotorGuide or competitive brand trolling
motor on your current boat, check if the existing mounting holes align with
the new deck mount before drilling new holes. Ensure that the mounting
location meets the requirements listed in Step 4.
3. If new holes are not required to mount the trolling motor, skip ahead to
Step 7.
4. Carefully select an appropriate area on the deck of the boat close to the
centerline to install the trolling motor. Ensure that the forward mounting
bolts will not penetrate the hull. Have an assistant hold the trolling motor
in position while the mounting location is being selected.
IMPORTANT: The mounting position must be tested in the stowed and
deployed positions before drilling the mounting holes.
IMPORTANT: Choose an area on the deck with 10.2 cm (4.0 in.) of clearance
between the bow of the boat and the deck mount to prevent interference
between the trolling motor and the bow roller when loading or unloading on a
steep ramp.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the head does not protrude beyond the beam of the
boat when in the stowed position.
