IMPORTANT: Trolling motors stored in temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F) should be

operated slowly for a minimum of 15 minutes before going above 30% operation.

Lubrication Points

NOTE: Preferred lubricants can be obtained at any authorized MotorGuide or

Mercury Marine service center.

To reduce friction and quiet squeaks, lubricate the specified locations periodically

with the following lubricants:

• Bracket door knob threads ‑ 2‑4‑C with PTFE

• Latch pin hooks ‑ 2‑4‑C with PTFE

• Latch pins ‑ 2‑4‑C with PTFE

• Pivot pins ‑ 4‑Stroke 10W‑30 Outboard Oil

IMPORTANT: Never use an aerosol lubricant to grease or oil any part of the unit.

Many aerosol lubricants contain harmful propellants that can cause damage to

various parts of the trolling motor.

IMPORTANT: Do not allow any lubricant to contact the column sleeves in the door

bracket halves as trolling motor steering tension will be affected.
