Unboxing the Garmin Force Pro
Kratochvil removes the existing trolling motor and prepares the bow plate for installation. Upon opening the box, he reviews the key components included with the system. These include the trolling motor, base, foot pedal, mounting template, stabilizing arm, and a selection of hardware and props necessary for installation.

Mounting the Trolling Motor Base
Kratochvil emphasizes the importance of aligning the mount using existing holes when replacing an older motor. He discusses using the provided template. Check for under-deck obstructions, and ensure the head of the trolling motor clears potential obstacles when stowed. This ensures a safer and cleaner install.

Connecting the Hardware and Wiring
The installation continues with mounting the lower arm, securing it with the pivot pin and bushings, and attaching the gas shock. Kratochvil demonstrates installing the upper arm, managing the data cable, and connecting the steering servo motor. He also explains how to attach the foot pedal—either hardwired or battery-powered—depending on your fishing needs.

Cable Management and Final Setup
A proper installation requires meticulous cable management. Kratochvil explains how to measure the 16-inch clearance for the power and transducer cables and how to secure them using provided clips. He also discusses adding a stabilizing arm to reduce motor bounce during rough travel.

Powering Up and Finishing Touches
Kratochvil details adapting the motor's power cable for different plug setups, finishing with the prop installation using anti-seize compound for long-term maintenance. Final touches include reconnecting the transducers and adjusting the motor’s depth lock. Kratochvil emphasizes the Force Pro’s LED indicator and reverse thrust as standout features for anglers.
