Battery Installation Instructions
*Caution*
Although the low voltage at the battery terminals
means that electrical shock or electrocution is impossible,
nonetheless, batteries store an enormous amount of potential energy, that if
accidentally released by a short-circuit, can melt metal tools, start fires and
cause personal injury. Eye protection MUST BE WORN whenever working
with batteries of this size, and EXTREME CARE must be exercised at all
times. Anything electrical is unforgiving of mistakes.
Things to note before starting:
Be careful with any metal tools that you do not inadvertently short between
terminals. Remove any metal jewelry from your hands and avoid loose metal
necklaces or such that may droop down and short between adjacent terminals.
Work slowly and carefully, and wear eye protection at all times.
Be very careful that freed ends as well as any tools do not
short across adjacent terminals!
Step 1:
Place the batteries in the case, oriented as shown in the photo at the top of page 20.
Step 2:
Starting with the cable labeled “A”, and going in alphabetical sequence, place the
cables and bolts in their appropriate places. The chart below as well as the following photos
show the orientations of the cables in respect to their corresponding battery terminals.
IT IS VITAL THAT THE CABLES BE HOOKED UP
EXACTLY AS SHOWN FOR PROPER UNIT
OPERATION. MISPLACED CABLES WILL, AT BEST,
PREVENT THE FROM PERFORMING AT IT'S BEST, AND AT
WORST MAY SHORT OUT AND CAUSE A FIRE. IF IN DOUBT AS
TO YOUR ABILTY, GET SOME KNOWLEDGEABLE ASSISTANCE.
BATTERIES CONTAIN ALMOST UNLIMITED AMPERAGE, AND
CAN CAUSE FIRES WHICH CAN LEAD TO PERSONAL INJURY,
EVEN DEATH!
