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 qualified marine technician. The following
specifications 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 qualified 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.

This conductor and circuit breaker sizing table is only valid for the following assumptions:
- No more than 3 conductors are bundled together inside of a sheath or conduit outside of engine spaces.
- Each conductor has 105° C temp rated insulation.
- No more than 5% voltage drop allowed at full motor power based on published product power requirements.
*Wire Extension Length refers to the distance from the batteries to the trolling motor leads.
PUSH-TO-TEST BATTERY METER
This motor is equipped with a “push-to-test” battery meter. The LED provides
an accurate display of the remaining charge in the battery. It is only
accurate when the motor is off .
The meter reads as:
- One light indicates recharge.
- Two lights indicate low charge.
- Three lights indicate good charge.
- Four lights indicate full charge.
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 significantly
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 offer 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:
- Make sure that the motor is switched off (speed selector on “OFF” or “0”).
- Connect positive ( + ) red lead to positive ( + ) battery terminal.
- Connect negative ( – ) black lead to negative ( – ) battery terminal.
- 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:
-
Make sure that the motor is switched off (speed selector on “0”).
-
Two 12 volt batteries are required.
-
The batteries must be wired in series, only as directed in wiring diagram, to provide 24 volts.
a. Connect a connector cable to the positive ( + ) terminal of battery 1 and to the negative ( – ) terminal of battery 2.
b. Connect positive ( + ) red motor lead to positive ( + ) terminal on battery -
c. Connect negative ( – ) black motor lead to negative ( – ) terminal of battery 1.
-
For safety reasons do not switch the motor on until the propeller is in the water. If installing a leadwire plug, observe proper polarity and follow instructions in your boat owner’s manual. See wiring diagram on following pages.
CAUTION
- For safety reasons, disconnect the motor from the battery or batteries when the motor is not in use or while the battery/batteries are being charged.
- Improper wiring of 24/36 volt systems could cause battery explosion!
- Keep leadwire wing nut connections tight and solid to battery terminals.
- Locate battery in a ventilated compartment.
MOTOR WIRING DIAGRAM
NOTE: This is a universal, multi-voltage diagram. Double check your motor’s voltage for proper connections. Over-Current Protection Devices not shown in this illustration.
USING & ADJUSTING THE MOTOR
STOWING AND DEPLOYING THE MOTOR
WARNING:
When raising or lowering the motor, keep fi ngers clear of all hinge and pivot
points and all moving parts.
DEPLOY-ASSIST LEVER OPERATION:
- Loosen the depth collar screw.
- Push Deploy-Assist Lever down.
- Push motor out.
- Tighten the depth collar screw.
TO DEPLOY THE MOTOR
Loosen the Dept Collar screw, then push firmly down on the Deploy-Assist Lever
to release the collar and slide the motor forward, out from the ramp. Lower
the motor to the desired depth. Make sure it clicks into a secure, vertical
position.
TO STOW THE MOTOR
Push down on 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 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.
TRANSPORTATION
In conditions where the stowed motor is subject to high levels of shock or
vibration, take care to provide a secure stow. Move the depth collar snug
against the steering motor and tighten.
TO ADJUST THE LATCH COLLAR
The latch collar is adjustable. If needed, loosen the Phillips head screw and
rotate the collar up or down to re-align the latch and collar. The ideal
adjustment is a slightly loose fi t that completely captures the collar.
AUTOPILOT™ CONTROLS
(ON AUTOPILOT EQUIPPED MOTORS ONLY)
The Minn Kota AutoPilot™
uses a magnetic compass and a microprocessor chip to keep the trolling motor
pointed in the direction you want to go. Each time the wind or water current
moves the boat off course, the Auto Pilot senses the change and steers itself
back to the original heading. The Auto Pilot direction is set every time a
steering change is made. To change direction, steer until the control head
points to the desired course. The Auto Pilot will pull the bow of the boat
around and correct automatically until the boat is moving in the direction you
chose.
-
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.
-
When the Auto Pilot is on and the trolling motor is pulled out of the water to the stow position, the steering motor will continue to run. Turn off the Auto Pilot switch to stop the motor. If the switch is left on, the steering motor will shut off automatically
after 10 seconds. The motor should not be sored in this condition for long periods as power is still being applied to all eletronics. Always turn the Autopilot switch off and disconnect your motor from the battery when storing your boat. -
This unit uses a magnetic compass to detect direction of travel. The compass can be adversely affected by magnets or large, ferrous metal objects near (within 12” of) the trolling motor control head.
-
After steering to a new direction, there is a short delay before the direction is locked in to allow the compass to stabilize.
-
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.
-
When broad speed changes are made, the motor heading may change slightly. This is normal.
NOTE: Always turn the Auto Pilot switch off and disconnect your motor from the battery when storing your boat.
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.
- With the motor deployed, firmly grasp the composite shaft above the mount.
- Loosen the adjustable depth collar until the shaft slides freely.
- Raise or lower the motor to the desired depth.
- Turn the motor control head to the desired position.
- Tighten adjustable depth collar to secure the motor in place.
INSTALLING AN EXTERNAL TRANSDUCER
An external sonar transducer can be installed onto the motor as shown.
- Transducer cables should be routed through the coil cable as depicted in the illustration to the right.
- Leave enough slack for proper stow and deploy.
- Mount transducer according to transducer instructions.
Note: An external transducer is not included with your trolling motor.
Your trolling motor may be pre-installed with a Universal Sonar 2 transducer
system. In this case, the transducer is integrated into the motor unit.
For compatibility and more information on Universal Sonar 2, please visit
minnkotamotors.com/us2.
ACCESSORY RECOMMENDATIONS:
- Minn Kota Transducer Mounting Kit (MKR-15)
USING THE FOOT PEDAL
All the controls in the foot pedal are easy to operate by either foot or hand. A light touch is all that is necessary.
MOMENTARY
A toe touch on the momentary button turns the propeller on. Let up and the
propeller stops.
MOMENTARY/CONSTANT (MOM/CON) SWITCH
When the switch is in CON position the motor will run continuously without
keeping your foot on the pedal. Slide the switch to momentary (MOM) to again
operate the motor with toe touch.
RIGHT/LEFT
Place your foot in the center of the steering pedal, rocking to the right
steers right. Rocking to the left steers left.
The heel of your foot can also be placed on the deck of the boat. Using your
heel to pivot on, depress and hold the center momentary to turn the motor on
or depress and hold the left or right side of the pedal to steer left or
right.
NOTE: The steering system is designed to turn your motor 360°. Be careful
to avoid over-wrapping the coil cord around the composite shaft.
FORWARD/REVERSE
The propeller always turns in the forward direction. You can reverse the
direction of thrust by turning the motor 180˚.
SPEED CONTROL
The speed selector is the calibrated sliding bar located on the right side of
the foot pedal. The speed selector provides variable speed control with the
built in pulse modulation system. Use your hand or foot to slide the bar
forward to increase speed. Draw the bar back to decrease speed. The slider
also contains a roller to aid in fine speed adjustment. Slide your foot over
the roller with light down pressure to adjust speed. The motor may not start
turning until the speed slider reaches speeds 1 or 2. This depends on
manufacturing tolerances and if the CoPilot accessory is installed.
NON-CARPETED BOAT USE
Enclosed with your motor are four (4) rubber bumpers. If the foot pedal is to
be used primarily on non-carpeted surfaces, insert the rubber bumpers into the
keyhole slots on the underside of the pedal. Slide the bumpers into the slot
until they are locked into position.
SERVICE & MAINTENANCE
PROPELLER REPLACEMENT
TOOLS AND RESOURCES REQUIRED:
-
Box End Wrench
– 1/2” for motors with 70 lbs thrust or lower.
– 9/16” for motors with 80 lbs thrust or higher. -
Screwdriver (optional)
CAUTION:
Disconnect the motor from the battery before beginning any prop work or
maintenance.
NOTE: The propeller on your motor may differ from the one pictured.
- Disconnect the motor from all sources of power prior to changing the propeller.
- Hold the propeller and loosen the prop nut with pliers or a wrench.
- Remove the prop nut and washer. If the drive pin is sheared or broken, you will need to hold the shaft stationary with a blade screwdriver pressed into the slot on the end of the shaft.
- Turn the old prop to horizontal (as illustrated) and pull it straight off . If drive pin falls out, push it back in.
- Align the new propeller with the drive pin.
- Install the prop washer and prop nut.
- Tighten the prop nut 1/4 turn past snug [25-35 inch lbs.] Do not over tighten as this can damage the prop.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
- After use, the entire motor should be rinsed with freshwater. This series of motors is not equipped for saltwater exposure.
- The composite shaft requires periodic cleaning and lubrication for proper retraction and deployment. A coating of an aqueous based silicone spray will improve operation.
- The propeller must be inspected and cleaned from weeds and fishing line after every use. Fishing line and weeds can get behind the prop, damage the seals and allow water to enter the motor.
- Verify the prop nut is secure each time the motor is used.
- To prevent accidental damage during transportation or storage, disconnect the battery whenever the motor is off of the water. For prolonged storage, lightly coat all metal parts with an aqueous based silicone spray.
- For maximum battery life recharge the battery(s) as soon as possible after use. For maximum motor performance restore battery to full charge prior to use.
- Keep battery terminals clean with fi ne sandpaper or emery cloth.
- The propeller is designed to provide weed free operation with very high efficiency. To maintain this top performance, the leading edge of the blades must be kept smooth. If they are rough or nicked from use, restore to smooth by sanding with fine sandpaper.
TROUBLESHOOTING & REPAIR
-
Motor fails to run or lacks power:
• Check battery connections for proper polarity.
• Make sure terminals are clean and corrosion free. Use fi ne sandpaper or emery cloth to clean terminals.
• Check battery water level. Add water if needed. -
Motor loses power after a short running time:
• Check battery charge. If low, restore to full charge. -

those applications can be considered excluded from the WEEE Directive
