Product Overview
The DS525 Equipment Power Adapter is designed to use a 12 V or
24 V battery to provide power to the DS500 MOBILELOCK™. The
DS525 consists of an input cable, a DC to DC converter, an output
cable and connectors. The DS500 will recharge regardless of whether
the heavy equipment or vehicle is running.

Installation (Fig. 2, 3)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, turn off
ignition switch.
note:
If the DS525 is wired incorrectly, it will not work. Neither the
DS525 nor the equipment’s electrical system will be damaged.
1. Determine the positive (+) and negative (-) wires to be spliced
coming from the 12 V or 24 V battery of the equipment. The
connections to be used should be independent of the ignition
switch.
2. The negative connection should be made to a ground or negative
wire. Slide the negative (-) wire from the battery supply of the
equipment into the pass through slot of the second connector.
3. Insert the black cable (A) into the half-through slot of the
connector.
4. Use pliers to press metal “U” contact down into the connector
as shown in Figure 2. As the “U” contact is pressed into the
connector, it grasps conductor as it displaces insulation.
5. Bend plastic cover and snap closed as shown in Figure 3.
6. The positive connection should be made with a wire that has 12 V
or 24 V when the ignition is off. Slide the positive (+) wire from the
battery supply of the equipment into the pass-through slot of the
connector. The cable must be protected by a fuse installed directly
next to the power connection. Do not cut the cable. If a shorter
cable is desired, wrap the cable with a cable tie.
7. Insert the red cable (B) into the half-through slot of the
connector.
8. Use pliers to press metal “U” contact down into connector as
shown in Figure 2. As the “U” contact is pressed into connector, it
grasps conductor as it displaces insulation.
9. Bend plastic cover over and snap closed as shown in Figure 3.
10. Mount the DS525 using the screw holes. Do not drill or screw
into vehicle system components such as wires, hoses, etc.
note:
The DS500 draws a very small amount of current while
charging. If the equipment/vehicle is not started over an extended
period of time, the equipment/vehicle battery could become
discharged.
Mounting
• Install the DS525 when the equipment/vehicle is on level ground
and the brake is on. Turn off the engine of the equipment/
vehicle.
• Mount in a location to protect from damage.
• Mount securely to prevent the DS525 from coming loose during
equipment/vehicle operation.
• Do not mount near engine or other extreme heat source.
• Do not drill or screw into vehicle system components such as
wires, hoses, etc.
• After the DS525 is installed, the battery of the DS500
MOBILELOCK™ charges for up to 24 hours. During this time,
an increase in energy may cause the DS525 to be warm to the
touch.
