A highly corrosion-resistant metal is densely packed onto the
bearings surface, using a process known as surface reforming. This
creates a stable, immoveable layer that ensures total protection. AntiRust Bearings in both ends of the spool make for an even smoother
performance!

Connection to battery
Power
The power source is 12V DC (Direct Current). Use a battery with
nominal voltage of between 12V and 14.4V.
Unspecified power source (such as AC 100-240V for household or 24V
DC available on board the vessel) cannot be used.
DO NOT ever use a battery charger.
When using a power source fixed to the boat, ensure voltage is DC
between 12V and 14.4V. (When using the boats batteries, do not
connect directly to a 12V source. Instead, use a DC-DC converter to
change from 24V to 12V. If battery terminals are rusted this may
affect the reels performance. Always remove rust before use.

Caution: When many electrical reels are being simultaneously powered from the boats power source, there is
a risk of damage to the retrieval action.
Use only fully charged batteries.
After fishing, protect battery life by charging before storing. Before your next trip, charge again for optimum
performance.
Charging capacity may deteriorate if used only for short spells. In that case, replace battery only.
Cord
For connecting to battery, always use genuine Shimano cord. Failure to do so may mean the reel not performing
as expected. Never misuse power cord. If you step on it, fold it, or bend it, damage may occur.

Gunnel stop
* When connected to a power source for the first time only, the gunnel stop is at
6m. From the next occasion onwards, the gunnel stopping position becomes that
at which the line stopped for 5 seconds or more. This is automatically remembered
by the computer. (This function only occurs within the range of 1m to 6m. When
the depth is negative, set to 1m for safety reasons.)
One Point Advice
When fishing with a short rod from the bow of the boat, where the floor level is higher, setting
the water level at 0 would mean the 1 6m range requirement of the gunnel stopping function
would not be met. In this case, bring the hook to the tip of the rod and press 0-set at this
position. The hook will now come back into your reach. In this situation, the 0-setting is not at
the level of the water surface, so the distance given from the tip of the rod to the water surface
will not be accurate.

When lowering the hook, the alarm rings 4m before the hook reaches set
memory depth then every 2m thereafter.
Beep beep
At the memorized depth (in this case 100m) the alarm makes two short
beeps.
The alarm rings only once per cast/retrieval. If the hook is reeled in once to within
6.0m, or 0-set is pressed, the alarm will again inform you of memorized depth.
For convenience,
You can choose from top or bottom
To improve catches, you must drop the hook to the exact point where most fish are (the rack).
The latest high-performance fish group sensor can detect exact depth in which fish are lying.
Normally, the vessel captain will advise the position of this rack. In this case, depending on fishing
area, method and the catch expected, the rack can be indicated from the water surface or from the
bottom (ocean floor).
The NEW DENDOU-MARU 4000HP-A has both the convenient top-down mode to indicate from
water surface, or the equally convenient bottom-up mode to indicate from the bottom. Alternate
these modes to suit your own requirements.

RakuRaku Mode
RakuRaku
mode
What is this?
RakuRaku mode is the function which attempts to consistently maintain the tension you
have specified. The reel senses the tension (load) in the line and retrieves the line
automatically, adjusting speed of rotation in response to the pull of the fish.
In other words,
This feature avoids instantaneous
high-tension tug-of-wars between
motor and fish.

If only the backlight is lit and the liquid crystal screen has no display, despite
power connected via the electric cord, disconnect the power cord connector or
the alligator clip. Reattach it and the screen should appear.
CAUTION:
Whilst the components in this product are designed to function properly at
temperatures between -10C & +50C, failure at temperatures below 0C could
occur if water inside the reel freezes. To prevent this, please keep the reel as dry
as possible in freezing conditions.
How to maintain
To prevent rust on the connector, cover it up when not in use with the cap
supplied.
Do not dismantle the reel. Inside are motor, breaker and other electrical
components which are easily damaged.
Do not apply oil to the drag area.
Long term storage in high temperature and high humidity may cause the lines
shape to change and strength to deteriorate. Always seek a location with good
ventilation.
The reel unit, especially the counter, should not be
immersed in water. (The counter is water-proof
under normal specification, but to avoid trouble do
not immerse).
The reel you have is built for long service, with special maintenance grease made
for that purpose. Apply this through the six holes of power cord terminal as
shown in the drawing. Application on the reels main body side is most effective.
Safety features
Self-recovering breaker
If the motor becomes overloaded, the breaker will cut
in to protect it. When this occurs, all indicators will
blink as shown on the right.
* Caution: If this occurs, for the protection of the motor, let it rest for at least 5
minutes without turning the motor switch ON or OFF. If this occurs, even if you
wind line in via the handle or disengage the clutch, retrieval learning will be
preserved and the counter will work normally once you resume motor operation.
When the blinking light turns to a constant light, the breaker has returned to
working order.
Battery detection indicator
If the battery voltage falls below 10.5V, or the contact
between the cord and the connector becomes poor,
the battery pictograph will light up.
* If the following
displays appear, do not let the line in or out.
Retrieval learning will become inaccurate.
If the voltage is too high
If the voltage becomes higher than DC 20V the
screen shown in the diagram to the right will appear.

Troubleshooting
Problem
Solution
Reference
When exposed to high temperature environment (i.e. car boots), this may happen.
Reduced the temperature and it will return to normal.
Check if battery, power cords (+) and (--) terminals are connected properly.
Also check for sufficient battery capacity.
A characteristic of LCD screens is that if left in temperatures below --15 C, even if you connect to power, it wont turn
on for a short period.
(Once the power has been turned on, the display only appears once the board inside the counter has warmed up.)
When using in extreme cold, we recommend you either store the reel in the cabin or fit the cover and protect it until
you reach the fishing spot.

It may be caused by up-winding tension and line stretch. Do zero-setting on the surface.
And for the set that can memorize gunnel, the range is 1-6m.
Sets that has 0-1m setting range should be set at 1m for safety reason.

Safety precautions
Read this before you use.
WARNING
When using a motorised reel, a very weak frequency will be dissipated. It may affect the function of medical devices
such as hearing aids and, in particular, heart pacemakers. User movement and visibility may be affected, so please
consult a doctor regarding the medical device maker or dealer on the effect of this motorized reel before using it.
Do not put your finger close to level winding position where the line is led in.
Do not press your finger pressed between reel body and handle, as this may cause injury.
Use only specified voltage (12V) from battery or vessel power source. When you use different voltage, the reel may
heat up and burn your hand.
Touching positive or negative terminals of power cord may result in electric shock.
If electrical shock occurs when fishing, discontinue use immediately and refer to qualified service person for servicing.
PRECAUTIONS
Do not touch the spinning spool. It may cause injury.
Do not dismantle or modify the motorized reel. It may cause damage or accident.
