Optional:

Run the earth cable to the battery or to an earth bolt on the chassis.
Shorten as required.
►
Crimp the cable lug and mount it on the battery's minus terminal or on the
earth bolt on the chassis.
With vehicles with preinstalled ETMA interface:
►
Plug the plus and minus cables into the mating plugs.
Note:
With hazardous goods vehicles, the ground cable must be connected to
the battery or in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer's guidelines for
mounting attachments.
Note:
We recommend installing a battery disconnect switch to be able to
disconnect the tail lift from the power supply in the event of a fault.
8.2. Establishing earth connection
If the earth cable is not directly connected to the battery, but the earth runs
over the vehicle chassis: Establish an earth cable from the cable lugs and
protective caps supplied.
Note:
Before connecting the ground cable, find out from the vehicle maker
whether this is possible.
►
Cut off the required length of cable from the supplied battery cable.
►
Keep the earth cable as short as possible and attach it to the ground screw
provided on the stand tube (see Figure 10, page 30, Pos. 8).
8.3. Connecting the acoustical signal generator
►
According to the circuit diagram, connect the signal generator for the
acoustical warning signal that sounds when the platform lowers (optional).
