3) Tighten the cable end of the T-5 to
the solid rod if desired. You may find
the unit operates smoother by hand
tightening the cable end to the solid rod
and then backing them off 1/2 turn [to
prevent any binding of the parts, don’t
over-tighten]
4) The Seal Kit supplied is very im-
portant in helping keep moisture out
of the Tilt Tube. We recommend that
you grease the rod often. You do not
want the rod to bind in any way.
Greasing the rod frequently will im-
prove performance and life of the T-5
unit. Also, do not over-tighten the
Seal Nut as this can cause the rod to
bind as well.
5) Mount the unit (white case for
saltwater use & black case for
freshwater use) in a vertical posi-
tion where it will not obstruct the
full movement of your trolling mo-
tor.
*** IMPORTANT: The threaded
cable end must be extended a
minimum of 3 inches out of the
T-5 Unit before installation. In
addition the threaded cable end
must be in the tilt tube before
tightening. Failure to do so
may result in damage to unit.
