Connecting to Power
To avoid possible serious personal injury or property damage, the circuit breaker must be in the off position before you connect the power cables from the trolling motor.
- Route the power cable to the breaker panel or the location where you plan to install the breaker.
- If necessary, extend the power cable using the appropriate wire gauge based on the length of the extension (Power Cable Extensions) using solder and heat-shrink tubing.
- Install a trolling motor plug and receptacle rated for 60 A or greater where the power cable enters a bulkhead (optional).
- Connect the power cable to a circuit breaker rated for 60 A (continuous).
- If necessary, connect the circuit breaker to a 60 A, 24 or 36 Vdc power source.
