CAUTION: Damage to Equipment

Do not put anything between the battery cable lug and the terminal surface. Overheating of the
terminal may occur. Do not apply any type of antioxidant paste until after the battery cable wiring
is tightened. The same applies for all DC connections. Do not over-tighten; observe all
recommended torque values.

CAUTION: Reverse Polarity Damage

Before making the final DC connection or closing the DC breaker or disconnect, check cable
polarity at both the battery and the inverter/charger. Positive (+) must be connected to positive (+).
Negative (–) must be connected to negative (–).

Reverse polarity damage is not covered by warranty.
