NEVER allow any of your tools and/or battery cable(s)tocontactBOTHbatteryterminal(s)/post(s) at the same time. An electrical short may occur andseriouspersonalinjuryordamagemayoccur.

The use of rubber gloves and safety glasses is rec- ommended when working with batteries.

Dual U1 or Dual Group 22 NF Battery Boxes

Perform one (1) of the following methods for connect- ing the battery cable(s):

A.FOR DUAL U1 BATTERIES - Use direct mount method. Refer to FIGURES 2 AND 3.

B.FOR DUAL GROUP 22 NF BATTERIES THAT HAVE MOUNTING HOLES IN THE BATTERY TERMINAL(S)/POST(S) - Use direct mount method. Refer to FIGURES 2 AND 3.

C.FOR DUAL GROUP 22 NF BATTERIES THAT DO NOT HAVE MOUNTING HOLES IN THE BATTERY TERMINAL(S)/POST(S)- Usebattery clamp method. Refer to FIGURES 4, 5 AND 6.

CAUTION

When connecting the battery cables to the battery(ies), the battery cable(s) MUST be con- nected to the battery terminal(s)/post(s) as shown in DETAIL “A” or DETAIL “B” of FIGURE 3 (depending on battery type), otherwise dam- age to the battery cable may result when in- stalling battery terminal caps.

2.Connect battery cable(s) to battery(ies) terminal(s)/ post(s) as follows (DETAIL “A” or DETAIL “B” of FIGURE 3, depending on battery type):

A.NEGATIVE (-) BLACK battery cable to NEGA- TIVE (-) battery terminal/post.

B.POSITIVE (+) RED battery cable to POSITIVE

(+) battery terminal/post.

3.Secure the battery cable(s)/ring terminal(s) to the battery terminal(s)/post(s), BLACK to NEGATIVE (-) and RED to POSITIVE (+), with the provided 1/ 4-20 x 7/8-inch hex flange screw and hex flange locknut. Securely tighten. (DETAIL “A” or DETAIL “B” of FIGURE 3, depending on battery type).

4.Verify all battery cable(s)/ring terminal(s) are correctly installed and securely tightened.

DIRECT MOUNT METHOD (FIGURE 2 AND 3).

1.Install battery terminal cap(s) onto battery cable(s) as follows (FIGURE 2):

DUAL U1 BATTERIES:

A.ORANGE battery terminal cap onto RED battery cable.

B.GRAY battery terminal cap onto BLACK battery cable.

DUAL GROUP 22 NF BATTERIES:

A.RED battery terminal cap onto RED battery cable.

B.BLACK battery terminal cap onto BLACK bat- tery cable.

5.Slide terminal cap(s) down battery cable(s) and onto battery clamps (FIGURE 3).

6.Secure each terminal cap in place with a tie-wrap (Use tie-wraps 11-1/2-inches long) (FIGURE 3).

NOTE: It will be necessary to trim excess tie-wrap in order to install the battery box top(s).

7.Install the battery box top(s).

8.Install the battery box(es) into the wheelchair. Refer to INSTALLING/REMOVING BATTERY BOX(ES) in this procedure of the manual.

NOTE: New Battery(ies) MUST be fully charged BEFORE using, otherwise the life of the battery(ies) will be reduced.
