Installing the Truecharge™ 2 Battery Charger

WARNING: Shock hazard

The rubber boots must be installed over the Truecharge™ 2 Battery Charger DC terminals to keep water off of live parts and to maintain the chargers' IP-32 and drip-proof ratings.

5.Insert and slide the rubber boot(s) over the charger end of the DC battery cables.

6.Install crimp lugs on the charger end of the DC battery cables using the crimp manufacturer’s instructions and tool.

To charger

CAUTION: Reverse polarity damage

Before proceeding to the next step, carefully check the wiring polarity – make sure the positive terminals of the Truecharge™ 2 Battery Charger will be connected to the correct terminals of the battery (fuses or breakers) and from there to the positive terminals of the battery. Make sure the negative terminal of the Truecharge™ 2 Battery Charger will be connected to the battery negative terminal (or DC negative bus). Do not reverse the connections.

WARNING: Fire and burn hazard

Make sure that the DC fuse and circuit breaker are open.
