Using a 48v 30Ah Power Queen LifePo4 Battery


Instructions translated to English:

Please read the usage rules and precautions carefully!

Use voltage and rated current: 48V lead-acid battery or lithium battery, rated current: 25A. Note that if it is lower than 36V, it will enter undervoltage protection, and if it is higher than 60V, it will enter voltage overload protection. The motor will not work when undervoltage or overload.

2. The positive pole is printed on the battery plug of the power cord, and L is the negative pole. After the battery is correctly connected, the voltage digital display will show the current battery voltage. When connecting the battery, please be sure to plug the plug tightly and make sure not to connect the positive and negative poles in reverse. If you connect them in reverse, the voltage display will not light up. Note: Reverse connection time exceeds 1 minute and the controller will burn out! We are not responsible for warranty for product damage caused by reverse connection of the positive and negative polarity of the power supply!

3. There is an adjustment wrench on the suspension bracket. If you turn it toward the main rod, the suspension bracket can be adjusted and rotated 90 degrees to adapt to the fixed installation at different sterns.

4. Functions of the buttons on the speed control knob: forward/reverse, and cruise control. Press the forward/reverse button to turn the motor forward or reverse. In the forward state, turn the speed control knob to the speed you need, and press the cruise control button to enter the cruise control state. Note: The cruise control button is invalid in the reverse state.

5. The motor part of this product is completely waterproof. But please be careful not to drop the whole machine into water, which will cause water damage to the circuit components. Damage caused by the whole machine falling into water is not covered by the warranty. Once the whole machine is accidentally dropped into water, stop using it immediately and be careful not to connect the battery. Please contact your dealer as soon as possible.

6. Battery Pack Instructions and Connections: You can purchase a complete 48V battery pack directly from a dealer or purchase it yourself, or connect 4 12V batteries of the same specification in series to form a 48V battery pack. As for the capacity, it is recommended that you purchase a battery with a capacity of 30 ampere hours or more. The larger the capacity, the longer the use time. A battery with a small capacity will have a short use time and its life span will also be affected. The market is full of fake batteries with insufficient capacity and false labels. There are also many second-hand batteries, which are often very low in price but of poor quality. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you purchase qualified batteries and chargers directly from the dealer of this product!

VII. This product is under warranty for one year under normal use. The power cord plug, speed control handle and propeller are not covered by the warranty. The damage caused by unauthorized disassembly, collision, damage, reverse battery connection, net entanglement, overload, falling into the water, etc. is not covered by the warranty! If you have any questions or concerns during use, please contact your dealer and we will solve them for you as quickly as possible!
