Step 6: Connecting the DC Cables

The following instructions only apply to the following models: Freedom HF 1000, Freedom HF 1055, Freedom HF 1800, and Freedom HF 1800 T.

REVERSE POLARITY DAMAGE

Before making the final DC connection, check cable polarity at both the battery and the Freedom HF. Positive must be connected to positive; negative must be connected to negative.

Reversing the positive and negative battery cables will damage the Freedom HF and void your warranty. This type of damage is easily detected.

Failure to follow these instructions can damage the unit and/or damage other equipment.

FIRE HAZARD

Use only copper wire rated 75 °C minimum. Make sure all DC connections are tight to a torque of 216–240 inch-pounds (24–27Nm). Loose connections will overheat.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.

Basic Installation Procedures

Follow the procedure given below to connect the battery leads to the

 

terminals on the DC end. The cables should be as short as possible and large

 

enough to handle the required current, in accordance with the electrical

 

codes or regulations applicable to your installation. Table 2 on page 9
