17 Cable Installation
4. Secure the remaining anchor points with cable ties as you route the cables up
the trolling motor shaft.
Depending on your installation confi guration and motor’s shaft length, you
may not need all fi ve anchor points.
5. Route the rest of the cables to the side of the trolling motor, over the bow, to
the chosen connection locations in Section 1: Prepare for Installation. Leave
su cient slack in the cables to allow for full movement of the trolling motor
during normal operation (see Routing the Cables).
Routing the Cables
CAUTION
Do NOT mount the cables where the connectors could be submerged in water or fl ooded.
If cables are installed in a splash-prone area, it may be helpful to apply dielectric grease
to the inside of the connectors to prevent corrosion. Dielectric grease can be purchased
separately from a general hardware or automotive store.
