WARNING
When stowing or deploying the motor, keep fingers clear of all
hinge and pivot points and all moving parts.
STOWING AND DEPLOYING THE MOTOR
To Deploy the Motor
Loosen the Depth Collar, then push firmly down on the Deploy-
Assist Lever to release the Latch Collar and slide the motor forward,
out from the Mount Ramp. Lower the motor to the desired depth.
Make sure it clicks into a secure, vertical position. Once at the
desired depth, slide the Depth Collar against the Steering Housing
and tighten.
To Stow the Motor
Loosen the Depth Collar and depress the Tilt Lock Lever and raise the motor by pulling up on the composite shaft or control head. Pull
the motor toward the stern until it rests securely on the Mount Ramp and the Deploy-Assist Lever captures the Latch Collar. Slide the
Depth Collar down and secure it against the top of the Steering Housing to secure the motor in place and prevent accidental deployment.
Latch Collar
The Latch Collar is located on the motor shaft just above the
Lower Unit. It functions to help secure the motor in place while
it is stowed. When stowed the Latch Collar is captured in the
Deploy-Assist Lever.
Tilt Lock Lever
The Tilt Lock Lever is located at the base of the mount opposite of the Lower Unit. The Tilt Lock Lever is used to unlatch the Steering
Housing from the stowed position so the motor can be tilted, pulled upwards and stowed.
Mount Ramp
The Mount Ramp functions to hold the Lower Unit in place when the motor is stowed. The Lower Unit will rest on the Mount Ramp when
stowed, helping to secure it in place.
This motor is equipped with a Push-to-Test Battery Meter. The LED
lights are located on the Indicator Panel on the Mount of the motor.
The Battery Meter provides an accurate display of the remaining
charge in the battery. It is only accurate when the motor is o. The
meter reads as follows:
• One light indicates recharge.
• Two lights indicate low charge.
• Three lights indicate good charge.
• Four lights indicate full charge.

WARNING
When the motor is being transported, it is important to place the Depth Collar snug against the Steering Housing and tighten. This
provides a secure stow and holds the motor in place during transportation when it is subject to high levels of shock and vibration. Failure
to secure the motor may result in injury or damage to the unit.
WARNING
When stowing or deploying the motor, keep fingers clear of
all hinge and pivot points and all moving parts. Practice
proper ergonomics when stowing and deploying the motor to
prevent injury.
