SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

 — This manual contains important safety and operating instructions for the charge 

controller

WARNING

Installation of the SolarMax Charge Controller should be performed by qualified personnel only. The SolarMax has no 

user-serviceable parts. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not perform any installation (or servicing) other than 

specified in these instructions. See our RMA and warranty policies should servicing be required.

1.  Do not expose the SolarMax charge controller to rain, snow, spray, or dust. To prevent overheating, do not 

obstruct any ventilation openings.

2.  Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by Analytic Systems may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, 

or injury to persons.

3.  Do not disassemble the SolarMax charge controller; consult the manufacturer first, or take it to a qualified 

serviceman when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

4.  To reduce risk of electric shock, disconnect from solar panel before attempting any maintenance or cleaning.
5.  Never place the SolarMax charge controller directly above a battery; gases from battery will corrode and 

damage it.

6.  Never allow battery acid to drip on the SolarMax charge controller, especially when checking the specific 

gravity of the battery or filling battery with distilled water.

Always isolate the SolarMax charge controller. Connect and disconnect the DC output connections only after 

disconnecting the solar panels from the SolarMax charge controller.
