3. Insert the positive (+) and negative (–) ring terminals on the studs of the inverter observing the correct polarity at both 
ends.

4. Tighten all connections according to the torque values listed in the table. It also contains the amperage values, plus 
the recommended size of cables and terminals.

Battery conductors

CAUTION: Hazard to equipment

- Do not reverse the polarity of the positive (+) and negative (–) battery cables. Otherwise, the product will be damaged. 

Check the polarity of all connections before applying battery power.

- Do not place any other object or hardware between the inverter terminal surface and the ring terminal. Overheating 

may result.

- Apply antioxidant compound to protect the terminals.
