4 Connecting the Battery

4.1 Connecting a 48V Battery

When using a battery, make sure the main switch is off before connection.

1. 

First connect the main switch cable to the battery.

2. 

Connect the main switch cables with the power cable from the outboard.

Figure 4-1

Avoid battery short-circuit during connection.

Do not short-circuit the main switch with other power supplies. The main switch 
should be mounted on the boat, and the back plate of the main switch should 
not be removed.

Outboard motor will stop working once the power cable disconnects.

Clockwisely rotate the main switch to power on the battery before use.

Users can also enlarge the battery capacity by connecting multiple batteries in 
parallel.
