UP AND RUNNING
Before raising and securing the wind generator, check that:
1.
All final mechanical checks have been made.
2.
The cable is not trapped.
3.
All electrical connections are secure and safe.
4.
The switch on the control unit is in the “OFF” position.
The wind generator can now be raised into position.
Take care to avoid all moving parts when raising and lowering the wind
generator.
When raised, secure the structure firmly in an upright position. The
performance of your Windcharger can be impaired if the pole is not vertical.
Connect the battery cables to the battery terminals using suitable permanent
connections.
It is vital to observe correct polarity when connecting the
batteries otherwise serious damage will result.
Move the switch on the control unit to the “on” position. If there is sufficient
wind the turbine should now accelerate and the LCD should display the
current operating conditions.
