Wiring Installation Instructions
Thank you for purchasing this SpeedCoach wiring system. PLEASE take a moment to review these instruc-
tions before installing the wiring harness and impeller. Your SpeedCoach system should provide you with
years of trouble-free service but we are always here to help if a problem arises. To order parts or
accessories or obtain technical support, please call 02 6553 2473. You may also e-mail questions to our
support repre-sentatives at info@nk.com.au or visit NK online at www.nk.com.au
If you've never done this before, please read through all of these installation instructions
before permanently installing any part of your SpeedCoach System.
The VHB ("Very High Bond") mounting tape used in this installation requires 24 hours to
cure to its full bond. PLEASE avoid getting it wet (in other words, don't take your boat for a
row) until fully cured. Failure to do this risks loss of your brand new impeller, or having to
Wherever you will be installing VHB mounting tape, make sure to use the provided
alcohol swabs to clean all oil and dust from the mounting surfaces. Avoid touching the
VHB with your fingers as the oil on your skin decreases the bond strength.
IF you ever need to remove installed VHB, use a hair dryer to warm the VHB thoroughly,
then peel very slowly from one edge to avoid damag ing the surface.

  • Page 2 If you are using a SpeedCoach XL2 or XL4, make sure that you will be able to put the unit with the heart rate plug and/or antenna attached in the docking station without obstruction.
  • Page 3 www.nkrowing.com.au INSTALLING THE SPEEDCOACH DOCK Next you will mount the plastic dock on the end of the SpeedCoach wiring to the front of the installed mounting bracket or directly to the mounting location chosen. If installing the docking station on a T-Bracket, you may use a cable tie to secure the harness wires so they will stay out of the way when you are strapping your feet into your shoes.
  • Page 4 www.nkrowing.com.au The vertical spacing between the stroke sensor and the magnet assembly is critical. If the magnet passes too far from the sensor the sensor may fail to register every stroke, resulting in low readings. If the magnet is too close to the sensor, it may strike the sensor and knock one or both out of place.
  • Page 5 INSTALLING THE HEART RATE SENSOR SpeedCoach XL2 and XL4 display units can measure heart rate when the heart rate sensor is installed and a chest strap is worn. The ideal location to mount the sensor is on the side of the boat, in line with the stroke rate sensor and oriented perpendicular to the stroke rate sensor.

    www.nkrowing.com.au Install the Speed Sensor (Blue Sensor) The SpeedSensor, which is the blue sensor provided, should be as close to the impeller as possible. You install the SpeedSensor inside the hull (i.e. the opposite side from the impeller). The SpeedSensor can either be installed perpendicu- lar to the impeller when positioned directly above it, or parallel to the impeller when it is located one impeller length in front or behind of the actual impeller.
