Routing the Power and Transducer Cables Through the
Mount
After you have installed a replacement power cable, transducer,
or shaft, you should route the power and transducer cables
through the mount.
To avoid damaging the power and transducer cables when
deploying and stowing the trolling motor and to avoid
interference with the GPS and heading sensors in the motor,
you must route the cables through the right (starboard) side of
the mount and secure them using the included hardware. You
must not route the power cable through the left (port) side of the
mount, and it is not possible to install the included brackets on
the left (port) side. The left (port) side is reserved for additional
accessories or transducer cables that you may install in the
future.

cables during use.
