weatherproof battery box within 6 feet of the control box Attach the 
battery harness wires from the control box to the battery terminals.

Tighten the bolts, washers, and nuts and place the cover on the 
weatherproof box. 

IMPORTANT:

or solar panel directly to the battery.

Use PVC conduit from ground up to control box.

Plug in transformer to power outlet. (Use of a surge protector is 
highly recommended. If outdoors use weatherproof box.)

Strip 1/2” off 2 wires and twist ends. Attach wires to 
transformer screw terminals. 

With the Control Panel OFF, remove control panel cover by 
unscrewing center cover fastener.

battery wire harness.
