BATTERY INSTALLATION
The model 200i/250i dyno is designed to carry a group 24 deep-cycle discharge series
battery for operating the starter, optional power carriage, and optional wheel clamp.
The typical dimensions for this series of batteries are 27 cm long by 17 cm wide by 23
cm tall (10.625-inches by 6.75-inches by 9.125-inches). The mounting is flexible so a
battery that has dimensions close to this will work satisfactorily. The built-in battery
cables are configured for top-post batteries. This battery is not included with your
dyno. You will need to provide this battery.
Note:
If you do not wish to use the wheel clamp and the power carriage or operate
the built-in starter then it is not necessary to install the battery.
There is danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly connected or
replaced. Wear protective clothing, eye, and face protection when
charging or handling batteries. Refer to Warnings for more information.
1
Locate the red battery cable on the inside of the dyno.
2
Place the battery in the battery carrier on the inside of the dyno so the red cable
can reach the positive (+) post on the battery and the black battery cable can reach
the negative (-) post.
3
Secure the red battery cable to the positive (+) battery post.
4
Secure the black battery cable to the negative (-) battery post.
5
Secure the battery to the tray with the battery hold-down.
