TROLLING MOTOR OPERATION
4. Raise the motor out of the water and rotate the transmission so the lower
unit is aligned with the mount cradle. Orient the lower unit so the cable
does not wrap around the trolling motor column. Slide the lower unit into
the mount cradle until the lower unit is fully seated. The mount will lock
the trolling motor in the stowed position. If GPS equipped, it is common to
lose the GPS signal while stowed.
