POWERLOCK CONNECTORS
Once you have run both the power and ground wires, then connect the cables to the amplifier. Cut off excess wire, and using wire strippers, strip the ends of the power and ground cables approximately 1/4 inch. Locate the PowerLockTM power and ground connector (supplied). Using a hex wrench, loosen the screws before attempting to insert the cable wires. Insert the wires into the appropriate hole, and tighten the screws. The Power/Ground PowerLockTM will accommodate 4 gauge wire for these amplifiers.
Note: The amplifier comes with the connector inserted into the amplifier with the wire clamping screws in the up position as shown below. Use a 3mm hex head wrench to secure the wires to the connector. If the connector needs to be unplugged from the amplifier, use a 2.5mm hex head wrench to remove the two retaining screws from the connector (set aside and save the retaining screws).
