Warning: The motor can only be used in water deeper than 0.8m.

STEERING

To adjust steering counter-force, simply loosen or tighten the counterforce bolt. The ideal setting is one where the
counterforce bolt is just tight enough so that the boat will steer in the direction you are aiming without need for
continual correction.

SPEED CONTROL

The speed control, featuring five forward and three reverse speeds, is integrated into the handle. Turn the handle
clockwise to move forward and anti-clockwise to go backwards. When you don't want to move, set the handle into
neutral. No power will be used in this setting. (D)
Warning: Remember always disconnect from batteries once the motor leaves water as a rotating
propeller can cause personal injury.
