# How to Install Trolling Motor Propeller and Circuit Breaker?

There are two components that require assembly before your trolling motor can be used: the circuit breaker and the propeller. Once these parts are installed, you can connect the motor to your battery and begin using it. Please refer to the instructions below for detailed guidance on how to assemble these components.

#### **Propeller:**

Please see our [Propeller Installation Guide](https://newportvessels.com/propeller-installation-guide/) for instructions or our [Propeller Installation Video](https://www.youtube.com/embed/fFyBUiUWwOo) on how to assemble your propeller. 

#### **Circuit Breaker:**

Your [Circuit Breaker](https://newportvessels.com/collections/nv-series-parts/products/trolling-motor-circuit-breaker) will be located inside the propeller box packaging. Take the positive wire extending from your trolling motor and attach it to the red terminal on the circuit breaker. Then attach the short 6” red wire extending from the circuit breaker and connect it directly to the positive terminal of your battery.
