  • Page 6: Installation

    Due to the great variety of boats available, mounting your downrigger can be a difficult decision. Cannon has a complete line of mounting and fishing accessories to aid in your fishing experience. Before making any permanent changes to your boat consider what accessories might be used in your application.
  • Page 7 Decks thinner than 1/4" Use a Cannon deck plate (PN 2200693) to prevent deflection and add stability to decks thinner than 1/4". Use the deck plate as a template to mark the hole locations. If access to the underside of the deck is not available, the deck plate can be mounted using screws and wellnuts.

  • Page 8: Boom And Ball Hook

    INSTALLING THE BOOM AND BALL HOOK 1) Remove the ball hook collar, ball hook, and 1/4-20 nut from the included hardware bag assembly. 2) Thread the nut onto the ball hook, then thread the ball hook into the ball hook collar.

  • Page 11: Spool Cover Removal

    FIGURE 13 FIGURE 14 FIGURE 15 FIGURE 16 REMOVABLE SPOOL COVER Your new downrigger comes with a removable spool cover. By removing this cover, you are able to gain easy access to your spooled cable and easy spool removal. This feature allows you to easily ac- cess tangled line, get it repaired and get you back into action quickly.

  • Page 12: Rod Holders

    REPLACING THE CLUTCH PAD To replace the clutch pad, follow the steps for removing the spool. Once the spool is removed, you have access to the clutch pad. (Figure 18) Simply pull it off the shaft and replace. Reassemble the spool and cover in the reverse order.

  • Page 13: Cable Termination

    ATTACHING THE LINE RELEASE (UNI-RELEASE) The Cannon Uni-Release attaches directly to the downrigger weight. Attach fishing line to the clip at the end of the release, and then click through a series of increasing tension settings.

  • Page 14: Power Loss Crank Handle

    FIGURE 22 FIGURE 23 www.cannondownriggers.com USING THE INCLUDED POWER LOSS MANUAL CRANK HANDLE In case of a dead battery, your downrigger comes equipped with a power loss manual crank handle. This handle allows for the retrieval of your weight should you lose power or have an electrical failure.

  • Page 15: Wiring Your Downrigger

    It should be 0.6-0.8VDC if properly wired. • The use of Cannon vinyl coated lead weights is recommended. • Use the trolling weight insulators supplied with your downrigger. This insulates your weight from the positive charge on the cable.
  • Page 16 FUSE / BREAKER SPECIFICATIONS: An over-current protection device (circuit breaker or fuse) must be used with this downrigger. Coast Guard re- quirements dictate that each ungrounded current-carrying conductor must be protected by a manually reset, trip- free circuit breaker or fuse. The following breaker size is a recommended guideline: 1 downrigger—30A @ 12 vdc 2 downriggers—60A @ 12 vdc...

  • Page 17: Getting Started

    GETTING STARTED Manual Descent: Fast or Slow By turning the clutch knob gently clockwise (toward the boom), you can let your trolling weight descend as fast or as slowly as you wish. Turning the knob counter- clockwise (away from the boom) stops the weight. This gives you control to let it plunge rapidly or sink slowly to a predetermined trolling depth.
  • Page 18 Adjusting the Depth Meter The Cannon Depth Meter provides non-slip accu- racy, plus easy resetting. To reset, just slide the meter away from the reel until the gears are disengaged. Spin meter gear to change setting. NOTE: Actual fishing depth may vary from depth shown on meter due to trolling speed and weight of cannon ball.

  • Page 19: Positive Ion Control Theory

    Because of the composite construction of the frame, Cannon downriggers are insu- lated from your boat's hull charge. When the stainless steel downrigger cable is low- ered into the water, the natural ionization between the cable and the boat creates a positive charge of 0.7 to...
  • Page 20 How the Positive Ion Control System Works The PIC system uses an internal circuit that passes the voltage through the drive train of the Magnum to the shaft. The shaft contacts the cable by means of a ball bearing, spring and, lastly, a one direction button head screw.

  • Page 21: Blowback Calculations

    Current drag, water salinity and the use of non-Cannon products will affect your actual trolling depth. As an example, the first chart shows that if you are trolling at 4 MPH with an 8 pound weight and you have 100 FT.

  • Page 22: Trolling Tips

    Ten Good Trolling Tips 1) Test your lures over the boat side before sending them down and back. Do this to make sure the lure wig- gles and wobbles properly without going belly up or wandering off. Some lures can be adjusted, fine tuned actually, to impart maximum action.

  • Page 23: Troubleshooting

    Troubleshooting PROBLEM: In the UP or AUTO-UP mode the downrigger stops periodically or the circuit breaker trips repeatedly. SOLUTION: • Low battery. The battery voltage at the power cord is less than 11.5 volts (measure with a volt meter while the downrigger is pulling up the weight). •...
