To Adjust Motor Speed
Turn the speed knob clockwise to increase speed and counter-clockwise to decrease speed.
To Operate the Motor in Momentary Mode
The default mode of operation for the foot pedal is Momentary. In this mode, the motor will only run while downward force is applied to
the Momentary On button on the top of the foot pedal. A toe touch to the Momentary button on the top of the foot pedal will turn the
propeller on in this mode. Removing downward force on the Momentary button will turn the propeller off.
To Operate the Motor in Constant Mode
To switch to Constant Mode, flip the side-mounted Constant On
switch until the propeller starts. In Constant Mode, the propeller
will continually run, regardless of whether force is being applied
to the Momentary On button on the top of the foot pedal.
To Turn Left or Right
Push the toe end of the foot pedal down to turn right and push
the heel end of the foot pedal down to turn left. The indicator
on the motor head shows the direction of the motor. The motor
will not maintain its own heading. You must keep your foot on
the pedal to control steering during operation.
To Reverse the Motor
The motor always travels in the direction of the indicator. You
can reverse the direction of the motor by turning the motor
180° from straight ahead.

Make sure that the Constant On Switch is turned off when
the motor is not in use. If the motor control is left on and the
propeller rotation is blocked, severe motor damage can result.
For safety reasons, disconnect the motor from the battery/
batteries when the motor is not in use or while the battery/
batteries are being charged.
Moving parts can cut or crush. Avoid pinch points when
operating the Foot Pedal.
NOTICE:
Remember to turn the power off when the motor
is not in use to prevent the motor from draining the battery.
