Connection overview
Refer to Figure 42.
The batteries must be housed in their proper place.
The batteries must only be connected using the leads provided. These leads incorporate a
temperature-sensing element, used to provide temperature compensated charging.
The connector lead connects to the main board with a plug and socket. Battery positive is RED
(item 3), battery negative is BLACK (item 4), and the control leads are GREY (items 5 and 6).
Two final connector leads are provided - one for batteries with plug-in type connectors, the
other for batteries with screw connectors. Use the appropriate lead for your batteries.
The batteries must be connected in series with a jumper as shown in Figure 42.
Take care not to invert the battery connection polarity. If this happens, replace fuse F1 (6.3
Amp, slow-blow, 250V, size 20 mm x 5 mm).
