MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS
The Ultrex Lift Assist Cylinder reduces the effort required for stowing and deploying the trolling motor when both the Humminbird 360
Imaging and MEGA Live Imaging TargetLock accessories are installed. To accomplish the successful installation of the Lift Assist Cylinder,
please give consideration to the following:
• Complete the installation of both the Humminbird 360 Imaging
and MEGA Live Imaging TargetLock accessories before
beginning the installation of the Lift Assist Cylinder. Use the
installation instructions provided with the product to complete
the installation. Keep the accessories installed to the trolling
motor during the installation.
• Ensure that the trolling motor installation is complete. Follow
the installation instructions provided with the trolling motor or
online at minnkota.johnsonoutdoors.com. The trolling motor
installation should be complete before beginning installation
on the Lift Assist Cylinder.
• Ensure that the trolling motor is not connected to a power source
during the installation to avoid unexpected motor operation.
• During the installation, the load bearing benefits of the Gas
Spring and Lift Assist Cylinder are removed. Minn Kota
recommends using the help of a second person to hold and
secure the Mount during the installation process. Watch for pinch points when working on the installation and do not remove or reinstall
the Steering Module until instructed to do so. Use the help of a qualified marine installer if uncomfortable with the installation.
• If using this Lift Assist Cylinder without the use of the Humminbird accessories, Minn Kota recommends installing the original
Gas Spring.

CAUTION
Avoid any unexpected motor operation while performing work
on the trolling motor. Disconnect the trolling motor from the
battery or power source before beginning any work.
WARNING
The gas-assist lift mechanism in this unit is under high spring
pressure when the motor is in the deployed position. Do not
remove the Steering Module assembly from the mount without
disconnecting one end of the Gas Spring. Failure to do this can
create a condition where accidental pulling of the Pull Grip and
Cable may cause the mount to spring open rapidly, striking
anyone or anything in the direct path.
