Freedom SW 230V Installation Guide
Installing the Inverter/Charger
5. Connect the other connector to the POSITIVE (+)
terminal on the fuse or breaker. Observe polarity carefully
while completing the installation.
Use a wrench to tighten the bolt to a torque of 14.9–16.3
Nm at the inverter/charger end. Observe the fuse holder
or breaker manufacturer’s recommendation at the other
end.
6. Connect one connector on the NEGATIVE (–) cable to
the NEGATIVE (–) DC terminal on the inverter/charger,
as shown in Figure 7. The connector goes on first, then
the lock washer and bolt.
7. Before proceeding, check that the cable polarity is
correct: POSITIVE (+) on the inverter/charger is
connected to the POSITIVE (+) on the battery, and
NEGATIVE (–) cable is connected to the NEGATIVE (–)
terminal on the inverter/charger.
8. Connect the other end of the cable to the NEGATIVE (–)
terminal on the battery.
9. Use a wrench to tighten the bolt to a torque of 14.9–16.3
Nm at the inverter/charger end.
10. To protect the DC terminals, attach the DC terminal
covers (Figure 8) to the inverter/charger, using the screws
provided.

DC Cable Connections
IMPORTANT:
The next step is the last cable connection you need to
make. A spark is normal when the DC disconnect switch is turned on or the
DC circuit breaker is closed so be sure step #3 is done before proceeding.
