12v minn-kota power drive. Does it spin clock-wise or counter- clockwise?

Depends on which way it's pointed. powerdrives only spin in one direction, but can turn 360 degrees allowing forward, backwards, right and left all while the motor spins the propeller in one direction only.

It spins one direction for forward, the opposite direction for reverse...that damn physics thing again.

Actually I hooked mine up backwards and nothing happened. On the back of the box it says it has reverse protection, short circuit, reverse night current, overload, and overcharge/discharge protection.

I'm gonna say it's defective - I am aware of no way to manually change the direction, so I assume it must be wired in reverse.

Positive & Negative on the board is the 12 volt power input. The other two connect to the motor

small print on the embossed electrical info says "not for switching motor loads".

This motor has a horizontal uni-directional output shaft. If viewed at the end of the output shaft, the shaft rotation is counter clockwise. I have my motor mounted on a Trac Vac which chips & blows grass clippings & leaves up into a drum. Regards Cliff Allen

I have no idea. But I do no that when energized its just a one way switch. When no power is sent to it it defaults to its de energized position.

Check that the tail and main motor connections to the PCB are not reversed. Tail motor is the connector on the left outside if viewing from the front (nose pointed at you) Good Luck!

It rotates 90 clockwise so you can have that configuration. Very convenient for plugging in cables too.

Sorry about previous answer. It's a J-Tech digital bi-directional switch, I spelled it jtek in previous answer

The center pin is negative and the outer rim is positive. Most DC power supplies are center-negative, but a few are center-positive so check the supply before you plug it in. There will be a diagram on the power supply telling you which configuration it is.

Thanks, i'll check for the switch on the back tonight. i'm sure the polarity is correct, red to lead (+) and black to ground (-) right?

It is not set up to reverse, however, it is a two wire 12v DC motor, and you could put a double pole double throw (DPDT) switch in the power feed to reverse the polarity, and thus the motor direction

Yes this motor does reverse direction by simply reversing the leads and seems to provide the same amount of torque in both directions. I have a couple of these that I use to power Halloween animations and get sufficient torque using 12 volt power.

It is normally counterclockwise. However, the brushes in this unit allow it to rotate in either direction. Just remove and replace the starter/generator, and the rotation will be the same on the new unit. Be very observant on how the unit is wired electrically, as that's what is important. Mine worked right out of the box, and cleared up my sluggish starting.

There is a turn screw with fuse located on the bottom of the unit. Push in and turn counter clockwise.

Mine is packed away...so, here goes. On the handle you will see the two voltages and I think you need a little screw driver to turn the inside nut to point to the one you want. I have another one that has a switch...the principle is the same.
