1).Ensure the voltage systems of the wind generator and the battery bank are 
the same. Prepare the appropriate wires.

2).Run the wire through the pipe and drag the wires near to the batteries 
(Do not connect to the battery), strip the insulation back from each set of wires.

5) Prepare a grounding cable from yaw shaft screw, secure the grounding 
cable against the pipe with insulation tape for grounding the wind 
generator by the pipe.

3).Connect the Wind Generator to the wires and insulate the connections 
using either heat shrink tubing or a quality electrical tape.

4).Once the yaw shaft is on the tower, firmly tighten the yaw clamp screws with
the 4mm hex key to 3-5 foot pounds(4.0-6.5Nm). Be sure that it is securely 
attached to the mounts.
Slide the yaw shaft all the way down over the end of pole being careful not to 
pinch the yaw wires. Be sure to leave enough slack in the wires so that if 
necessary, the Wind Generator can be removed.
