Connecting to a power source using

the supplied battery clips with "o" ring

connectors

Use the provided battery clips (with cables and "O" ring

connectors) to connect the converter directly to the 12 volt

power source as follows:

1. Check to make sure the converter's On/Off switch has

been turned off (the power/fault LED is not lit) and that no

flammable fumes are present in the installation area.

2. Turn the red plastic cap (counterclockwise) on the

converter's positive (+) cable post and remove. Attach the

positive "O" ring at the end of the red battery clip cable.

Replace the cap and turn clockwise to secure. Do not

over-tighten.

3. Turn the black plastic cap (counterclockwise) on the

converter's negative (–) cable post and remove. Attach

the negative "O" ring at the end of the black battery clip

cable. Replace the cap and turn clockwise to secure. Do

not over-tighten.

4. Make sure that all connections between cables and

terminals are secure.

Direct hardwiring to power source (optional

connection method; hardware not included)

Use #10 AWG wire if the converter to power source

connection is 10 feet or less. For longer cable lengths

use #8 AWG wire. In either case, protect the positive (+)

wire from shorts by installing a 50 amp fuse or circuit

breaker close to the DC power source (battery) terminal.

Procedure

1. Check to make sure the converter's On/Off switch has

been turned off (the power/fault LED is not lit) and that no

flammable fumes are present in the installation area.

2. Identify the positive (+) and negative (–) DC power

source (battery) terminals.

3. Install a fuse holder or breaker close to the positive (+)

terminal of the DC source (battery).

4. Connect a length of wire on one side of the fuse holder or

circuit breaker. Connect the other end of the wire to the

positive (+) terminal of the converter.

5. Connect a length of wire between the converter's

negative (–) terminal and the DC power source negative

(–) terminal.

6. Connect a short length of wire to the other terminal of the

fuse holder or circuit breaker. Mark it "positive" or "+".

7. Connect the free end of the fuse or breaker wire to the

positive (+) terminal of the DC power source (battery).

8. Insert a fuse appropriate to the converter in the fuse

holder.

9. Test the converter by turning it on and plugging in a 100

watt lamp or equipment.

10. If the converter is not properly operating, then refer to

the "Troubleshooting" section of this manual.

CAUTIONS: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PROPERTY

DAMAGE

•

Loose connectors may cause overheated wires and

melted insulation.

•

Check to make sure you have not reversed the polarity.

Damage due to reversed polarity is not covered by

manufacturer's warranty.

Important cable information

Substantial power loss and reduced battery operating time

results from converters installed with cables that are not

able to supply full power. Symptoms of low battery power

can result from cables that are either excessively long or an

insufficient gauge. Marine installations are also subjected

to vibration and stresses that exceed those of other mobile

installations. Therefore, the installer/operator should be

especially aware of the requirements to maintain secure,

tight, water-resistant electrical connections and to provide

for strain relief for DC cables and appliance wiring. Cable

insulation must be the appropriate type for the environment.
