INSTALLATION

•Remove the positive (+) battery cable terminal cover from the unit and attach the battery cable. Tighten the battery terminal bolts to a torque value between 160 inch-pounds and 180 inch-pounds. Replace the cover for the positive terminal.

The negative (-) cable should be connected directly to the negative post of the house or auxiliary battery bank or the ground side of a current shunt. Tighten securely.

The positive (+) battery cable must be fused and connected to the positive post of the house or auxiliary battery bank, or through a selector switch to one or more battery banks.

A spark may be generated when the final battery connection is made. This is normal; do not be alarmed. However, do not make the final connection in the presence of flammable fumes.

If multiple batteries are used, the interconnecting jumper cables must be the same AWG or larger as those connected to the inverter/charger.

NOTE: If installing in a vehicle, do not use the vehicle frame as the negative conductor.

If multiple battery banks are to be charged, a battery bank selector switch can be installed, allowing the banks to be charged either individually or simultaneously. A solenoid can also be used.
