Connecting Your Motor To The Battery - Watersnake GEO-SPOT SW 65/54 Owner's Manual

BATTERY AND POWER

CONNECTING YOUR MOTOR TO THE BATTERY

All Watersnake wiring connections should conform to best marine standards.
Soldered, sealed and heat-shrink protected. If you doubt your ability to
produce quality waterproof connections or lack the equipment, consult a
marine technician or auto electrician.
• Your Watersnake comes factory-fitted with a standard length of twin flex
wiring with ring terminals to attach to the battery.
• Before connecting the motor's cables to the battery terminals, ensure all
switches are in the OFF position and stand clear of the propeller.
• Connect the red cable to the positive (+) terminal and the black cable to the
negative (-) terminal, making sure the terminals are clean before doing so.
A clean connection will minimise power wastage and give you maximum
power from the battery.
• This Watersnake 65lb motor requires a 12V battery system.
• If you intend to charge your battery via an alternator or solar panel, it is
important that the battery voltage output does not exceed 14.5v. The voltage
your motor is receiving is displayed at the top of the remote control display.
• When not in use please make sure that the motor is disconnected from the
battery. This can be done by simply disconnecting the Anderson plugs.
