OWNER'S MANUAL

NOTE: Do not return your Minn Kota motor to your retailer. Your retailer is not authorized to repair or replace this unit. You may obtain service

by: calling Minn Kota at (800) 227-6433; returning your motor to the Minn Kota Factory Service Center; sending or taking your motor to any

Minn Kota authorized service center. A list of authorized service centers is available on our website, at minnkotamotors.com. Please include proof of

purchase, serial number and purchase date for warranty service with any of the above options.

Please thoroughly read this user manual. Follow all instructions and heed all safety and cautionary notices below. Use of this motor is only

permitted for persons that have read and understood these user instructions. Minors may use this motor only under adult supervision.

ATTENTION: Never run the motor out of the water, as this may result in injuries from the rotating propeller. The motor should be disconnected from

the power source when it is not in use or is off the water. When connecting the power-supply cables of the motor to the battery, ensure that they are

not kinked or subject to chafe and route them in such a way that persons cannot trip over them. Before using the motor make sure that the insulation

of the power cables is not damaged. Disregarding these safety precautions may result in electric shorts of battery(s) and/or motor. Always disconnect

motor from battery(s) before cleaning or checking the propeller. Avoid submerging the complete motor as water may enter the lower unit through

control head and shaft. If the motor is used while water is present in the lower unit considerable damage to the motor can occur. This damage will not

be covered by warranty.

CAUTION: Take care that neither you nor other persons approach the turning propeller too closely, neither with body parts nor with objects. The

motor is powerful and may endanger or injure you or others. While the motor is running watch out for persons swimming and for fl oating objects.

Persons whose ability to run the motor or whose reactions are impaired by alcohol, drugs, medication, or other substances are not permitted to use

this motor. This motor is not suitable for use in strong currents. The constant noise pressure level of the motor during use is less than 70dB(A). The

overall vibration level does not exceed 2,5m/sec2.

T RIggIng & PROdUCT InsTALLATIOn

For safety and compliance reasons, we recommend that you follow American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC) standards when

rigging your boat. Altering boat wiring should be completed by a qualifi ed marine technician. The following specifi cations are for

general guidelines only:

CAUTION: These guidelines apply to general rigging to support your Minn Kota motor. Powering multiple motors or additional

electrical devices from the same power circuit may impact the recommended conductor gauge and circuit breaker size. If you are

using wire longer than that provided with your unit, follow the conductor gauge and circuit breaker sizing table below. If your wire

extension length is more than 25 feet, we recommend that you contact a qualifi ed marine technician.

An over-current protection device (circuit breaker or fuse) must be used. Coast Guard requirements dictate that

each ungrounded current-carrying conductor must be protected by a manually reset, trip-free circuit breaker or fuse. The type

(voltage and current rating) of the fuse or circuit breaker must be sized accordingly to the trolling motor used. The table below gives

recommended guidelines for circuit breaker sizing.

This conductor and circuit breaker sizing table is only valid for the following assumptions:

1. No more than 3 conductors are bundled together inside of a sheath or conduit outside of engine spaces.

2. Each conductor has 105° C temp rated insulation.

3. No more than 5% voltage drop allowed at full motor power based on published product power requirements.

*Wire Extension Length refers to the distance from the batteries to the trolling motor leads.

bATTERY WIRIng & InsTALLATIOn

sELECTIng THE CORRECT bATTERIEs

The motor will operate with any lead acid, deep cycle marine 12 volt battery/batteries. For best results, use a deep cycle, marine

battery with at least a 105 ampere hour rating. Maintain battery at full charge. Proper care will ensure having battery power

when you need it, and will signifi cantly improve the battery life. Failure to recharge lead-acid batteries (within 12-24 hours) is the

leading cause of premature battery failure. Use a multi-stage charger to avoid overcharging. We off er a wide selection of chargers

to fi t your charging needs. If you are using a crank battery to start a gasoline outboard, we recommend that you use a separate

deep cycle marine battery/batteries for your Minn Kota trolling motor.

Advice Regarding Batteries:

•

Never connect the (+) and the (–) terminals of the battery together. Take care that no metal object can fall onto the battery and

short the terminals. This would immediately lead to a short and extreme fi re danger.

•

It is highly recommended that a circuit breaker or fuse be used with this trolling motor. Refer to “Conductor Gauge and Circuit

Breaker Sizing Table” in the previous section to fi nd the appropriate circuit breaker or fuse for your motor. For motors requiring

a 60-amp breaker, the Minn Kota MKR-19 60-amp circuit breaker is recommended.

COnnECTIng THE bATTERIEs In sERIEs (If REQUIREd fOR YOUR mOTOR)

24 VOLT sYsTEms:

1. Make sure that the motor is switched off (speed selector on “0”).

2. Two 12 volt batteries are required.

3. The batteries must be wired in series, only as directed in wiring

diagram, to provide 24 volts.

a. Connect a connector cable to the positive ( + ) terminal of

battery 1 and to the negative ( – ) terminal of battery 2.

b. Connect positive ( + ) red motor lead to

positive ( + ) terminal on battery 2.

c. Connect negative ( – ) black motor lead to

negative ( – ) terminal of battery 1.

4. For safety reasons do not switch the motor on until the propeller is in the water. If installing a leadwire plug, observe proper

polarity and follow instructions in your boat owner’s manual. See wiring diagram on following pages.

CAUTION

• For safety reasons, disconnect the motor from the battery or batteries when the motor is not in use or while

LAYOUT

The i-Pilot remote is divided into four sections: Manual Control, Tracks, Spot-Lock, and Cruise Control/AutoPilot. Buttons in

the Manual Control section of the remote do not require a GPS signal to operate and give you full, immediate control over steering,

speed and prop functions similar to a CoPilot. All other buttons require a minimum GPS signal strength of one bar in order to operate.

Buttons located in the Tracks section are used for track recording and playback. Spot-Lock buttons are located in the Spot-Lock

section. Cruise Control/AutoPilot are located in the Cruise Control/AutoPilot section.

COnsTRUCTIOn

The remote is waterproof and fl oats.

RAngE

The range of the remote will be greatly reduced if it is used near or mounted to any metal object including aluminum or steel. It is also

recommended that the front end of the remote not be obstructed during use.

bATTERY LIfE

Remote battery life is subject to frequency of use and is especially impacted by how often the LCD backlight is used.

When the remote battery is low, will appear on the remote LCD. The Backlight button will be disabled when is displayed to

conserve battery power.

POWER

When a button is pressed on the remote it will automatically turn on. To turn the remote off press and hold for three seconds. The

remote will automatically turn itself off thirty minutes after the last button press if a learned i-Pilot controller is powered up and within

transmitting range. The remote will turn off after three seconds if the i-Pilot controller is powered down or out of transmitting range.

KEYPAd LOCK

The user can lock the keypad during use to help avoid accidental key activations. To lock or unlock the keypad, press and hold for

3 seconds. When the keypad is locked, will appear on the remote LCD. Note that the keypad is always unlocked when the remote is

fi rst turned on.

mOTOR bATTERY sTATUs

The motor battery status graphic on the remote ( ) will display trolling motor battery voltage. When the prop is on, the

battery voltage will not display. The battery voltage meter will reappear once prop is off. This is to ensure that accurate battery charge

information is communicated.

ACCURACY

The accuracy and responsiveness with which i-Pilot controls your boat is highly dependent upon many variables. Just a few of

these variables and their general eff ects on responsiveness and accuracy are given below so that the behavior of the system can be

understood.

sYsTEm sTARTUP

Once you have verifi ed i-Pilot’s installation it’s time to start using it on the water. Follow these simple steps each time you power up

your trolling motor for successful operation:

1. Connect trolling motor to power.

2. Deploy trolling motor into water.

3. Push any button on your remote. The remote LCD will show prop speed and GPS signal strength.

4. You are now able to use all manual functions:

and .

5. After i-Pilot has obtained a minimum GPS signal strength of one bar, all remaining functions will become available.

VARIAbLE EffECT

Ratio of motor thrust to

boat weight

Excessive thrust on a smaller boat can cause i-Pilot to overcorrect.

Not enough thrust on a large boat can cause i-Pilot to respond slowly.

Wind Excessive wind and/or current can reduce i-Pilot’s positioning accuracy.

GPS signal strength The greater number of GPS signal bars the greater the accuracy.

Trolling motor

battery power level A fully charged battery will give the best performance.

POWER

The i-Pilot controller will turn on whenever the trolling motor has power connected and has been turned on. This is when the green

system ready light is on.

UndERsTAndIng HOW THE i-PILOT sYsTEm WORKs

nAVIgATIOn

i-Pilot uses GPS satellite signals as well as digital compass data to know where it is, where it is heading and the direction the motor

is pointing. Since i-Pilot depends on GPS satellite signals for navigation, a minimum GPS signal level of one bar is required in order

for GPS navigation controls to be enabled. Best results are achieved when a GPS signal level of four bars can be obtained.

In simple terms, i-Pilot remembers and creates points to navigate your boat automatically. i-Pilot also uses a method of GPS

navigation called arrival circles. These imaginary circles allow i-Pilot to understand when it has drifted away from a point and when

it has arrived at a point. The size of the arrival circles vary depending on GPS signal strength, thus the greater the signal strength

the smaller the arrival circles.

TRACKs

Tracks are made of many points that i-Pilot records when recording a track. The distance between these points varies based on GPS

signal strength and the speed at which you record the track. When a track is played back, i-Pilot uses the track points and arrival

circles to navigate the track.

mEmORY

i-Pilot has the capability of storing up to six individual tracks (each two miles in length) and six individual

Spot-Lock locations. These locations are stored in memory even when power is removed from the system.

Spot-Lock and Track memory locations are separate from each other and they cannot over write each

other. Memory locations are identifi ed on the remote LCD with an icon shown as A, B, C, D, E or F. When

the memory icon is fl ashing, a diff erent location can be selected by pressing or .

HOW sPOT-LOCK WORKs

sPOT-LOCK

Spot-Lock uses a single point as a reference for the spot you want to stay on. This point is

recorded and stored into one of the six memory locations when the Spot-Lock button is pushed.

Around the Spot-Lock location i-Pilot uses an arrival circle to determine prop speed and

direction. If i-Pilot sees it is within the circle, it will adjust the motor speed to zero. If i-Pilot sees it

is outside of the circle, it will control motor speed in an attempt to get the boat back into the circle.

sECTIOn TITLEAUTOPILOT

HOW AUTOPILOT WORKs

Two diff erent versions of AutoPilot are available: AutoPilot and Advanced AutoPilot. There

are distinct diff erences between the two AutoPilots and how they control your boat.

AUTOPILOT

AutoPilot uses an internal compass to provide heading lock. When AutoPilot is on, it keeps the

motor pointed in the same compass direction. If a manual steering correction is made, AutoPilot

locks onto the new compass heading to which the boat was steered. This method of heading tracking

does not take into account external forces such as a side wind or currents, which can allow side drift.

AdVAnCEd AUTOPILOT

Advanced AutoPilot not only uses compass heading but

also GPS signal data to correct for cross winds, current and

other external forces to keep the boat on a straight line. When

Advanced AutoPilot is turned on, it generates a set of GPS

points in a straight track line in the heading direction. i-Pilot now

navigates to each individual point on this track line. When the

user steers to a new heading, a new track line of GPS points are

laid down in the new heading direction.

AUTOPILOT

EngAgIng AdVAnCEd AUTOPILOT And AUTOPILOT

1. To engage Advanced AutoPilot, press once. To engage AutoPilot, press and hold

for two seconds.

2. The Advanced AutoPilot or AutoPilot icon will be displayed on the remote LCD.

3. To adjust desired heading, manually steer motor to new heading. i-Pilot will lock onto new heading.

WHICH AUTOPILOT dO I UsE And WHEn?

With all the external variables, this question can be diffi cult to answer. Both AutoPilots have their benefi ts based on the type of fi shing

and bait presentation desired.

Advanced AutoPilot will keep the boat on a true straight path in most conditions. When very extreme conditions exists such as very

strong winds or current, the trolling motor may not have enough power to control the boat smoothly. In these extreme cases it may be

best to use AutoPilot and let the boat move with the wind or current if the motor is not powerful enough to overcome it.

AutoPilot helps you maintain a constant heading but does not compensate for wind or currents.

Both Advanced AutoPilot and AutoPilot are valuable tools the fi sherman can use for accurate and precise bait presentation.

We highly recommend getting on the water and trying both Advanced AutoPilot and AutoPilot in various fi shing situations and

applications. With experimentation and time you will fi nd which AutoPilot works best for you in a given situation.

HOW TRACK RECORdIng And PLAYbACK WORK

TRACK RECORdIng And PLAYbACK

When the Track Record button is pressed, i-Pilot starts to record GPS position data in the form of track

points. The distance between these points varies based on the speed of the boat and the GPS signal

strength. The very fi rst track point recorded is called the start. The last point recorded is called the end.

i-Pilot sees a recorded track as a series of these track points. When a Track to Start or Track to End

button is pushed, i-Pilot will navigate to the nearest track point. Once this nearest track point is reached,

it will then follow the track points in sequence back to either the start or end based on which button was

pressed. Once the end or start track point is reached, i-Pilot automatically exits from the Track to Start

or Track to End function. During track playback, i-Pilot takes control over all steering functions; speed

can be manually controlled or the Cruise Control function can also be used. The motor speed must be

set high enough in order to stay on the track given wind, current and other external forces.

i-Pilot can also pause the recording of a track. When the recording is paused, i-Pilot temporarily stops

recording any new track points. When track recording is resumed, i-Pilot records new track points. Due

to the nature of pausing a recording, there may be a large separation distance between two track points

or two track points lying on top of one another where the pause occurred. This can cause erratic motor

steering therefore it is very important to know where the pause button was pressed and to resume the

recording just ahead of that location. If while paused, the separation distance exceeds a quarter mile, the

recording will automatically stop.

Recording of a track can be done at any motor state (stowed, deployed, or in the

stowing/deploying sequence).

TOOLS AND RESOURCES REQUIRED:

• Box End Wrench

- 1/2” for motors with 70 lbs thrust or lower.

- 9/16” for motors with 80 lbs thrust or higher.

• Screwdriver (optional)

CAUTION:

Disconnect the motor from the battery

before beginning any prop work or

maintenance.

NOTE: The propeller on your motor may diff er from

the one pictured.

1. Disconnect the motor from all sources of power prior to changing the propeller.

2. Hold the propeller and loosen the prop nut with pliers or a wrench.

3. Remove the prop nut and washer. If the drive pin is sheared or broken, you will need to hold the shaft stationary with a blade

screwdriver pressed into the slot on the end of the shaft.

4. Turn the old prop to horizontal (as illustrated) and pull it straight off . If drive pin falls out, push it back in.

5. Align the new propeller with the drive pin.

6. Install the prop washer and prop nut.

7. Tighten the prop nut 1/4 turn past snug [25-35 inch lbs.] Do not over tighten as this can damage the prop.

gEnERAL mAInTEnAnCE

1. After use, the entire motor should be rinsed with freshwater, then wiped down with a cloth dampened with an aqueous based

silicone spray. This series of motors is not equipped for saltwater exposure.

2. The propeller must be inspected and cleaned from weeds and fi shing line after every use.

Fishing line and weeds can get behind the prop, damage the seals and allow water to enter the motor.

3. Verify the prop nut is secure each time the motor is used.

4. To prevent accidental damage during transportation or storage, disconnect the battery whenever the motor is off of the water.

For prolonged storage, lightly coat all metal parts with an aqueous based silicone spray.

5. For maximum battery life recharge the battery(s) as soon as possible after use. For maximum motor performance restore

battery to full charge prior to use.

6. Keep battery terminals clean with fi ne sandpaper or emery cloth.

7. The propeller is designed to provide weed free operation with very high effi ciency. To maintain this top performance, the

leading edge of the blades must be kept smooth. If they are rough or nicked from use, restore to smooth by sanding with fi ne

sandpaper.

sERVICE & mAInTEnAnCE

1. Motor fails to run or lacks power:

• Check battery connections for proper polarity.

• Are batteries charged?

• Make sure terminals and wires are clean and corrosion free. Use fi ne sandpaper or emery cloth to clean terminals.

• Check circuit protection devices.

• Check battery water level. Add water if needed.

2. Motor loses power after a short running time:

• Check battery charge. If low, restore to full charge, or replace.

3. You experience prop vibration during normal operation:

• Remove and rotate the prop 180°. See removal instructions in the Propeller Replacement Section. Replace prop if worn.

4. Experiencing interference with your fi shfi nder:

• You may, in some applications, experience interference in your depth fi nder display. We recommend that you use a seperate deep

cycle marine battery for your trolling motor and that you power the depth fi nder from the starting/cranking battery.

5. Motor contacts an object while trimming causing a current limit (red status LED fl ashing):

• Reverse the direction of trimming to clear motor from obstruction.

6. Motor contacts an object while stowing causing current limit (red status LED fl ashing):

• Reverse the current cycle by pressing the stow/deploy button to clear from obstruction.

7. Motor fails to trim:

• Check main lift belt tension per the Adjustments section.

8. Motor fails to stow or deploy:

• Check for obstructions preventing the motor from deploying or stowing.

• Ensure that manual tilt knob is engaged. See the Emergency Stow Procedure section for details.

• Check charge state of trolling motor batteries. If trolling motor battery icon on remote is fl ashing, battery charge is too

low for operation.

9. Prop will not turn on:

• Ensure batteries are suffi ciently charged.

• For safety reasons there is a prop lock out region (approx. 15” from mounting base to lower unit centerline). Ensure that the

lower unit is not in this region.

NOTE: If these problems persist or for all other inquiries, call our customer service number at (800) 227-6433. For motor repair, a

i-PILOT gEnERAL TROUbLEsHOOTIng

Problem: The motor is making erratic steering corrections while in AutoPilot, Spot-Lock or Track to Start/End.

Solution: Be sure to keep all ferrous metallic objects away from the i-Pilot controller as they will have an impact on the built-in

compass. Such objects include: anchors, metal framework, etc.

Problem: When a button on the remote is pressed the motor doesn’t always respond.

Solutions: Check if the low battery indicator is on. If so, replace the remote’s battery. Check for large obstructions between the

remote and the motor.

Problem: I press a button on the remote and nothing happens.

Solution: Could be a dead battery in the remote. If the battery was just replaced, open the remote case and verify that all the

internal components were properly reinstalled.

Solution: If

is displayed, the keypad is locked. Press and hold for 3 seconds to unlock the keypad.

Problem: I press a button on the remote and all the icons come on for a few seconds then it shuts off .

Solutions: Verify that the motor is powered up. Go through the learn process for the remote (see page 17 for the procedure).

Problem: i-Pilot won’t let me turn on certain features like: Advanced AutoPilot, Record, Track to Start/End or

Spot-Lock.

Solution: Verify that the GPS Signal Strength icon on the LCD shows at least one bar. If there are no bars, i-Pilot will not allow

these GPS-based features to be enabled.

Problem: The remote LCD backlighting will not come on.

Solution: Check if the low battery indicator icon is on. Backlighting is disabled when a low battery level is detected. Replace the

battery.

Solution: The Backlight will not come on if the remote is not currently communicating with the i-Pilot Controller.

sPOT-LOCK

Problem: The boat doesn’t seem to keep close enough to the recorded Spot-Lock location.

Solution: Verify the trolling motor batteries are suffi ciently charged.

Solution: Check for weeds on the prop.

Solution: In more extreme wind and current conditions, the boat will tend to stabilize a little ways down wind from the intended

location. Relock the location the same distance upwind and expect that the boat will drift some in the downwind

direction.

CRUIsE COnTROL

Problem: The GPS speed displayed on the remote is diff erent than what my other GPS system shows.

Solution: If you are using Cruise Control with Advanced AutoPilot or Track to Start/End, i-Pilot calculates the actual

speed in the intended direction of travel which may diff er from your GPS reported speed.

Problem: Cruise Control isn’t holding the target speed close enough.

Solution: Verify the trolling motor batteries are suffi ciently charged.

AUTOPILOT

Problem: When in Advanced AutoPilot in strong winds, there is quite a bit of back and forth movement in the

boat.

Solution: While Advanced AutoPilot will keep your boat on a true heading, it may be at the expense of the boat having

to continuously move to get back on the correct course. In these extreme conditions you may be better off using

AutoPilot and correcting for the wind manually.

Problem: I press and release the Advanced AutoPilot button and the system goes into AutoPilot instead of

Advanced AutoPilot.

Solution: If the GPS Signal Strength indicator shows no bars, then pressing and releasing the AutoPilot button will enable

AutoPilot automatically instead of requiring that the button be held for two to three seconds like when GPS is present.

TRACK RECORd And PLAYbACK

Problem: While in Track to Start/End the propeller suddenly stopped.

Solution: Verify you did not accidentally enable another automatic feature such as AutoPilot or Spot-Lock.

Solution: When the end (or start) of the track is achieved during playback, i-Pilot will automatically turn off the motor along with

canceling Track to Start/End.

Problem: While in Record mode, the recording suddenly stopped.

Solution: You may have reached the two mile limit for recording a track.

f Q

Q: Is there a trolling motor battery meter on Ulterra?

A: Yes. The motor battery meter is displayed on the i-Pilot or i-Pilot Link remote control LCD screen. Battery meter is displayed when

prop is off .

Q: Which quick release brackets are compatible with Ulterra

A: The following quick release brackets can be used with UIterra: MKA-32, MKA-16-02, RTA 17 and RTA 21.

Q: Is there a manual Stow and Deploy procedure?

A: Yes. There is a manual method for stowing Ulterra. See the Emergency Stow Procedure section for instructions.

Q: When Ulterra is deployed, at what depth does the deploy stop?

A: Ulterra will always deploy to the most recent depth that was used.

Q: Are the Ulterra and Terrova foot pedals interchangeable?

A: No. The foot pedals are not interchangeable.

Q: If I engage Spot-Lock on the foot pedal, which Spot-Lock position on the remote is used?

A: i-Pilot: When Spot-Lock is activated from the foot pedal it will always utilize position “A” on the remote.

A: i-Pilot Link: When Spot-Lock is enabled from the foot pedal, the user has the option of saving or discarding the Spot-Lock

loction. If saved, the next available Spot-Lock number will be utilized.

Q: What is the “Mode” button on the foot pedal?

A: The Ulterra foot pedal is dual function. When it is in “Ulterra” mode, the yellow LED light will be illuminated. In this state the foot

pedal toe buttons can be used to auto stow and deploy the motor and control trim. When it is in “steering” mode, the yellow LED

will be off . In this state the foot pedal toe buttons can be used to control steering and prop on/off . In either state, the heel/toe pad

can be used to control steering.

Q: Is there a way to clean weeds from the lower unit?

A: Yes. During the process of stowing, the stow cycle can be stopped by pressing the stow/deploy button as the motor begins to tilt

back. The lower unit is easily accessible at this point to clear weeds. A second button press of the stow/deploy cycle will re-deploy

the motor to its previous position.

Q: Can I stow the motor with the prop in or out?

A: Yes, the motor can be confi gured to stow with either the prop in or out. Follow the procedure outlined in the Installation Mounting

Options section.

i-PILOT

Q: Does i-Pilot record the speed I am traveling when recording a track?

A: No. i-Pilot only records its location during track record. It is up to the user to set the desired speed manually or with Cruise Control.

Q: Why doesn’t my GPS Signal Strength icon always show all four bars?

A: GPS signal strength is impacted by many infl uences including:

• i-Pilot controller having a clear view of the sky (especially to the southern sky),

• boat being located alongside a high bank

• your geographic location.

Q: Is i-Pilot compatible with CoPilot?

A: No. None of the components between the two systems are compatible with each other.

Q: Does the remote fl oat?

A: Yes.

Q: How long of a track can I record?

A: Each individual track location (A, B, C, D, E or F) can be up to two miles in length.

Q: Can I use multiple remotes with my i-Pilot?

A: Yes, you can use an unlimited number of remotes simultaneously. Remember to learn each new remote to the i-Pilot controller.

Q: Why does the LCD screen of the remote have dark blotches on it when I wear my sunglasses?

A: Polarized sunglasses can dramatically aff ect the way an LCD looks to the human eye.

Q: Can I control how fast i-Pilot takes me back to a Spot-Lock location when using Spot-Lock Recall?

A: No, Spot-Lock and Spot-Lock Recall are fully automatic functions that take full control of motor steering and speed.

Q: Where can I purchase additional remotes?

A: Your local Minn Kota retailer should carry additional remotes.

Q: If I turn off the remote, will i-Pilot continue to operate?

A: Yes. The i-Pilot Controller will continue in its current state of operation until the user makes a change either with the remote or

foot pedal (Terrova only).

Q: Where are the six tracks and Spot-Lock locations stored?

A: In the i-Pilot Controller.

Q: Does i-Pilot help to keep the coil cord from wrapping around the motor shaft?

A: Yes and no. When in Spot-Lock, i-Pilot keeps track of how far it has rotated in either direction. If a new correction will cause the

coil cord to wrap, it will rotate in the opposite direction in order to prevent the wrapping. In all other modes, it is up to the user to

monitor the coil cord and to rotate the motor accordingly to avoid wrapping.

automobiles, aircraft, and boats. In some European Union member states, these vehicles are considered

outside of the scope of the Directive, and EEE for those applications can be considered excluded from the

WEEE Directive requirement.

household refuse. It must be disposed of and collected for recycling and recovery of waste EEE. Johnson

Outdoors Inc. will mark all EEE products in accordance with the WEEE Directive. It is our goal to comply

in the collection, treatment, recovery, and environmentally sound disposal of those products; however, these requirement do

vary within European Union member states. For more information about where you should dispose of your waste equipment for

recycling and recovery and/or your European Union member state requirements, please contact your dealer or distributor from

which your product was purchased.
