INSTALLATION

TOOLS AND RESOURCES REQUIRED:

• #2 Phillips Screwdriver

NOTE: If the trolling motor is currently mounted on a boat, the boat should be stabilized to avoid unexpected movement.

CAUTION: Disconnect power to the trolling motor before beginning installation.

INSTALLING YOUR RECEIVER

1. Using the screwdriver, remove the two 1/4-20 x 5/8’’ side plate screws from the right side-plate of the motor.

2. Position the CoPilot receiver on the outside of the right side plate (shown in the ﬁgure below) so that the receiver mounting

holes are aligned with the side plate mounting holes.

3. Using the new 1/4-20 x 1 3/4’’ mounting screws provided, insert the screws through the receiver and side plate into the

original side plate screw holes. Tighten the two screws. Do not over tighten.

4. Connect the motor cable plug (previously connected to the corded foot pedal) to the CoPilot receiver cable plug that has the

female (sleeve) receptacles. If desired, connect the corded foot pedal plug end to the CoPilot receiver cable plug that has

the male pins.

NOTE: Do not apply lubricant or any type of grease to trolling motor connectors.
