GTO SL-1000, SL-2000 installation manual Step

STEP 9

Run the low voltage wire from the electrical outlet to the control box. Do not exceed 1000'.

NOTE: Pull approximately 1 foot of extra low voltage wire into the control box to accommodate terminal connections. To maintain adequate charging power, use appropriate gauge, stranded, direct burial wire (see Accessory Catalog). Do not use telephone wire or any solid core wire because it will not provide adequate current. Never splice wires together.

STEP 10:

Strip 3/16" off the ends of the low voltage wire and attach ends to the transformer terminals; red wire to [RED], black wire to [BLK], (see Illustration I). A dab of household petroleum jelly on each terminal will help prevent corrosion.

We recommend crimping a spade-tongue terminal (not provided) to the end of each wire before attaching it to the transformer.

To prevent damage to transformer, make sure the exposed wire ends do not touch each other!

DO NOT plug the transformer into outlet.

The transformer will be plugged in during STEP 13.

NOTE: Wires coming from the ground to the control box should be run through PVC conduit to protect them from lawn mowers, weed eaters and grazing animals (see illustrations on page 13).

STEP 11:

Feed the low voltage wires upward through the strain relief on the bottom of the control box (see Illustration J). Pull 6" to 8" of wire into the control box.

If accessories (i.e. safety loops, card readers, etc.) are to be added during this installation, do not tighten the strain relief screw against the wires until the accessories have been connected. When all accessories have been connected, fully tighten the strain relief screw against the wires.
