INSTALLATION
1
HANDLE INSTALLATION
a. Remove the Wire Clip from the Ball Detent located on the Inner Handle.
b. Install the Outer Handle over the Inner Handle.
Position the handles so the Ball Detent and OFF are aligned.
c. Push the Outer Handle into the control box until handle clicks into
place. The handle is held in place with locking fingers, so some force may be
required to lock the handles together.
d. Once the handle is locked into the control box, it can be rotated and
extended for normal use.
e. Once the handle is installed, the assembly is permanent. Do not
attempt to remove the handle.
CAUTION
Once the handle is installed, the installation is permanent. Do not attempt to
remove the handle. Removing the handle after it is installed will damage the
product.
MOTOR INSTALLATION
a. Find a transom area of the boat that is free from obstructions.
b. Open the Transom Clamp Screws on the bracket enough so that it will fit
over the top of the boat transom.
c. Place the Lever Lock Mounting Bracket over the top of the boat transom so
that the bracket is resting on top of the transom.
d. Verify that there are no obstacles that the control box, handle, or prop
might hit while in use that would restrict steering or cause damage to the
motor.
e. Tighten down the Transom Clamp Screws to the transom by hand only. Do not
use any tools to tighten the clamp screws as this may damage the bracket or
your boat.
CAUTION
Over-tightening the Transom Clamp Screws can damage the bracket. Damage to the
bracket will prevent the motor from being securely mounted to the transom.
Prevent damage to the bracket by not over-tightening it. Only tighten by hand.
2
f. We recommend the tilt angle of the motor to be adjusted so that the
motor shaft is perpendicular tothe water surface when the motor is in use.
g. For transport, always tilt the
motor into the boat, such that the motor and prop assembly are completely out
of the water and the motor is positioned up close to the Lever Lock Mounting
Bracket.
NOTICE: This motor weighs approximately 40 lbs.
We recommend having a second person help with the installation.
WARNING
When the motor is being transported, on water or land, it is important to
place the motor completely out of water. The motor should be positioned up
close to the Lever Lock Mounting Bracket. Always secure the Steering Tension
Knob and slide the Adjustable Depth Collar down to the top of the Steering
Tension Knob for added security during transport. 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.
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.
CAUTION
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.
CONDUCTOR GAUGE AND CIRCUIT BREAKER SIZING TABLE
This conductor and circuit breaker sizing table is only valid for the
following assumptions:
- No more than 2 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.

Reference
United States Code of Federal Regulations: 33 CFR 183 – Boats and Associated
Equipment ABYC E-11: AC and DC Electrical Systems on Boats
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 amp-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 fit 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. For more information on battery selection and
rigging, please visit minnkotamotors.com.
WARNING
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 fire danger.
CAUTION
Refer to “Conductor Gauge and Circuit Breaker Sizing Table” in the previous
section to find 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.
CAUTION
Please read the following information before connecting your motor to your
batteries in order to avoid damaging your motor and/or voiding your warranty.
ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS
Using DC or Alternator Chargers
Your Minn Kota trolling motor may be designed with an internal bonding wire to
reduce sonar interference. Most alternator charging systems do not account for
this bonding wire, and connect the negative posts of the trolling motor
batteries to the negative posts of the crank/starting battery. These external
connections can damage connected electronics and the electrical system of your
trolling motor, voiding your warranty. Review your charger’s manual carefully
or consult the manufacturer prior to use to ensure your charger is compatible.
Minn Kota recommends using Minn Kota brand chargers to recharge the batteries
connected to your Minn Kota trolling motor, as they have been engineered to
work with motors that include a bonding wire.
Additional Accessories Connected to Trolling Motor Batteries
Significant damage to your Minn Kota motor, your boat electronics, and your
boat can occur if incorrect connections are made between your trolling motor
batteries and other battery systems. Minn Kota recommends using an exclusive
battery system for your trolling motor.
Where possible, accessories should be connected to a separate battery system.
Radios and sonar units should not be connected to any trolling motor battery
systems as interference from the trolling motor is unavoidable. If connecting
any additional accessories to any trolling motor battery system, or making
connections between the trolling motor batteries and other battery systems on
the boat, be sure to carefully observe the information below.
CONNECTING THE BATTERIES
The negative (-) connection must be connected to the negative terminal of the
same battery that the trolling motor negative lead connects to. In the
diagrams below this battery is labeled “Low Side” Battery. Connecting to any
other trolling motor battery will input positive voltage into the “ground” of
that accessory, which can cause excess corrosion. Any damage caused by
incorrect connections between battery systems will not be covered under
warranty.
Automatic Jump Start Systems and Selector Switches
Automatic jump start systems and selector switches tie the negatives of the
connected batteries together. Connecting these systems to the “High Side”
Battery or “Middle” Battery in the diagrams below and will cause significant
damage to your trolling motor and electronics.
The only trolling motor battery that is safe to connect to one of these
systems is the “Low Side” Battery.
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.
WARNING
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.
WARNING
- 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.

USING & ADJUSTING THE MOTOR
STOWING THE MOTOR
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.
WARNING
Moving the motor creates a variety of pinch points. The motor head will create
a pinch point if the Steering Tension Knob is loosened and the motor head
slides to the top of the Adjustable Depth Collar. Grasp the Shaft and prevent
it from sliding all the way down to prevent the pinch point. When adjusting
the Mounting Bracket by engaging the Quick Release Tilt Lever, watch for pinch
points on the Lever Lock Mounting Bracket and between the Shaft and Mounting
Bracket. Grasp the motor away from the area that may come in contact with
another area of the motor to prevent injury. Watch for pinch points on the

Grasp the Shaft and prevent it from sliding all the way down to prevent the
pinch point. Grasp the motor away from the area that may come in contact with
another area of the motor to prevent injury.
Adjusting the Steering
Adjust the Steering Tension Knob to provide enough tension to allow the motor
to turn freely, yet remain in any position without being held or tighten the
knob to place the motor in a preset position to leave your hands free for
fishing.
ADJUSTING THE STEERING
Controlling Speed & Direction with the Tiller
These motors are equipped with an extension twist tiller with a telescoping
handle, which offers a choice of five forward and three reverse speeds. The
speed control may be operated in either direction, forward or reverse. Turn
the tiller handle counterclockwise from (OFF) to increase reverse speed and
clockwise from (OFF) to increase forward speed. Thrust decreases as you
approach (OFF) from either direction.
WARNING
When the motor is not in use, always turn the Tiller handle to “OFF”. If the
handle is set or accidentally engaged or bummped and is not positioned to
“OFF” the prop will turn on unexpectedly. The prop may also turn on
unexpectedly if the control board or 5 position switch fails. Prevent injury
from a turning propeller and always know how to quickly disengage the power or
correct the Tiller to turn the prop off.
WARNING
The Endura is not intended to be a primary propulsion motor. Heavy use of the
motor can cause elevated motor temperatures, which can be increased by an
excessively hot operating environment. Use care when handling the control head
to avoid burns or injuries from excessive heat. In the event that the motor or
speed control would break, always be prepared to take manual control of the
boat.
WARNING
Be alert for unexpected boat movement when operating the Endura. The boat may
encounter sharp turns and jolts if the steering is changed sharply or if broad
changes in speed are made while operating. Maintain balance and observe safe

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 fine 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
