INSTALLATION

HANDLE INSTALLATION

1. Remove the wire clip from the ball detent located on the inner handle.

2. Install outer handle over inner handle. Position the handles so the ball detent and OFF are aligned.

3. Push the outer handle into the control box until handle “clicks” into place. The handle is held in place with locking ﬁ ngers, so

some force may be required to lock the handles together.

4. Once the handle is locked into the control box, it can be rotated and extended for normal use.

5. Once the handle is installed, the assembly is permanent. Do not attempt to remove the handle.

MOTOR INSTALLATION

1. Find a transom area of the boat that is free from obstructions.

2. Open the clamp screws on the bracket enough so that it will ﬁ t over the top of the

boat transom.

3. Place the Lever Lock Mounting bracket over the top of the boat transom so that

the bracket is resting on top of the transom.

4. Verify that there are no obstacles that the control box, handle, or prop might hit

while in use that would restrict steering or cause damage to the motor.

5. Tighten down the clamp screws to the transom by hand only. Do not use any tools

to tighten the clamp screws as this may damage the bracket or your boat.

6. We recommend the tilt angle of the motor to be adjusted so that the motor shaft is

perpendicular to the water surface when the motor is in use.

7. For transport, always tilt the motor into the boat, such that the motor and prop

assembly are completely out of the water and the motor is positioned up close to

the lever lock bracket.

NOTE: When setting the depth, be sure the top of the motor is submerged at least

12” to avoid churning or agitation of surface water. The propeller must be completely

submerged.

CAUTION:

• Never operate your motor when it is out of the water.

• Over-tightening the clamp screws can damage the bracket.
