The Thor VM2 can be connected to vehicle power as follows:

•Direct power connection (12-48VDC vehicles). See Connecting the Power Cable, below.

•Replace a previously installed VX6/VX6 or Thor VX8/VX9 with an adapter cable. See Adapter Cables, below.

•High voltage forklifts (over 60V). Refer to the “DC/DC Power Supply Installation Instructions,” available at www.honeywellaidc.com.

Connecting the Power Cable

The following power option is for 12-48VDC vehicles (10-60VDC direct connection).

CAUTION - For installation by trained service personnel only.

Fuse Requirements

WARNING - For proper and safe installation, the input power cable must be connected to a fused circuit on the vehicle. If the supply connection is made directly to the battery, the fuse should be installed in the positive lead within 5 inches of the battery’s positive (+) terminal. The fused circuit requires a maximum time delay (slow blow) fuse with a current rating as noted below.

•For 12VDC input, use a 10A slow blow fuse that has a DC voltage rating greater than 12VDC.

•For 24VDC input, use a 6A slow blow fuse that has a DC voltage rating greater than 24VDC.

•For 36VDC input, use a 4A slow blow fuse that has a DC voltage rating greater than 36VDC.

•For 48VDC input, use a 3A slow blow fuse that has a DC voltage rating greater than 48VDC.

Note: For North America, a UL Listed fuse must be used.

•Route the power cable away from the outside of the forklift.
