Adjusting The Tilt/Extend Tiller; Controlling Speed & Steering With The Tiller - MINN KOTA TRAXXIS Mode D'emploi

USING & ADJUSTING THE MOTOR

ADJUSTING THE TILT/EXTEND TILLER

Your trolling motor features 7 usable handle tilt positions: 45°, 30°, and 15° up and
down from the 0° (horizontal) position. To use the down positions, you must fi rst press
the release button located on the left underside of the pivot handle.
Your trolling motor handle also features a unique stow
position, that is useful for limiting the amount of space
required for storage or travel.
Important: BEFORE attempting to put the
handle in the stowed position, the speed selector
must be in the OFF/STOW position . Failure to do
so will damage the internal mechanism.
First press the release button located on the left underside of the pivot handle,
then push the handle down until you feel the handle "lock in" to the stowed
position. This will be almost parallel to the motor shaft.
To extend the handle, pull the handle towards you to the desired position.
The handle will extend a full 6 inches. To retract, push the handle in until it
meets the face of the motor control head.
CONTROLLING SPEED & STEERING WITH THE TILLER
This motor off ers variable forward and reverse speeds. The speed control may be operated in either
direction, forward or reverse. Turn the tiller handle counterclockwise from (OFF) to increase reverse
speed and clockwise from (OFF) to increase forward speed. Speed decreases as you approach (OFF)
from either direction.
