Adjusting the trolling motor depth
Avoid injury due to the sudden shifting of weight when deploying the motor or adjusting the motor depth. When raising or
lowering the motor, firmly grasp the motor column with one hand before loosening the depth collar knob.
Adjusting the depth of the motor improves trolling motor performance in various water depths.
NOTE: It may be necessary to loosen the steering tension knob before adjusting the motor depth. High steering tension will prevent
the motor column from moving up and down freely.
