STRAIGHT ON DEPLOY
STRAIGHT ON DEPLOY
Minn Kota recommends setting the Keel Oset when the position of the Lower Unit is parallel with the Keel. Save the Keel Oset before
exploring the Straight on Deploy feature. Straight on Deploy uses the position recorded in Keel Oset to know where to position the
Lower Unit to be parallel with the Keel.
When Straight on Deploy is engaged, the lower unit will automatically rotate to the Keel Oset position when deployed. By default, the
Lower Unit will be parallel to the Keel when the Mount is parallel to the Keel. If the Keel Oset was programmed to another angle, the
Straight on Deploy feature will correct the position to match the Keel Oset angle when turned “on.” If Straight on Deploy is turned “o,”
the trolling motor will not correct the position in any direction.
