HOW DO I CLEAN THE EXTERIOR OF A TROLLING MOTOR?

One of the first things to do when you maintain your electric trolling motor is to clean the exterior of the motor. Naturally, this is the relatively straightforward part of the maintenance process. When you clean the exterior of your bow mount trolling motor or transom mount electric trolling motor, always make sure you remove any dirt and weeds. There are many specialist products you can use. However, you can also use a mild detergent and water solution. Don't use harsh chemicals, as this could damage the protection layer on the exterior of your motor.

HOW DO I CHECK AND MAINTAIN THE PROPELLER?

The propeller is one of the most important parts of your electric trolling motor. The following actions are therefore recommended for each propeller maintenance session.

Check for exterior damage - Before you get into the nitty gritty of your propeller, always check the edges of the propeller for any visible damage. Even though damage is quite unlikely on a relatively new propeller, there are many objects in the water that could influence its effectiveness.

It is not uncommon to notice some minor scratches around the edges of your propeller. When this occurs, use some fine sandpaper to make the surface even again, this will make your propeller more effective and reduce the impact of scratches on its overall performance.

Check for unwelcome objects - There are a lot of things that can get stuck in your propeller, this includes weeds and even fishing line. Because this kind of thing does happen frequently, experts recommend inspecting the propeller for every 15 hours of use.

Most weeds and fishing line around the propeller can easily be removed manually. However, there are situations where a delicate cutting tool must be used. These accessories are available at Anaconda.

In some cases, weeds and fishing line can get tangled into the mechanism of the propeller. When this is the case, you will need to take out the manual of your propeller and open it up. Check the drive shaft and use tools such as a pair of tweezers to manipulate the objects and remove them from your propeller.

DO I NEED TO MAINTAIN THE ELECTRICALS OF MY TROLLING MOTOR?

Just like all the other aspects of your freshwater trolling motor or saltwater transom mount trolling motor, it is necessary to maintain any electrical elements, this includes deep cycle batteries, plus foot control and hand control trolling motor components. Use boat covers and other waterproof storage ideas to prolong the lifespan of your trolling motors and outboard motors.
