Battery Cable Installation

Battery Cable Installation

ALWAYS be sure the battery cables (Figure 43) are properly connected to the battery terminals as shown below. The RED cable is connected to the positive terminal of the battery, and the BLACK cable is connected to the negative terminal of the battery.

Figure 43. Battery Connections

CAUTION :

If the battery cable is connected incorrectly, electrical damage to the generator will occur. Pay close attention to the polarity of the battery when connecting the battery.

When connecting battery do the following:

1.DO NOT connect the battery cables to the battery terminals when the Off/Manual/Auto switch is in either the manual or auto position (ON). ALWAYS make sure that the Off/Manual/Auto switch is in the OFF position when connecting the battery.

2.Place a small amount of grease around both battery terminals. This will ensure a good connection and will help prevent corrosion around the battery terminals.
