WARNING
Install the ground cable to the negative
terminal of the batteries! The crane electrical
ground completes the electrical circuit
through the structure of the crane to the
vehicle frame. The vehicle factory ground is
NOT sufficient to carry the current required by
the crane. Without this extra ground cable,
your crane may not operate at rated capacity,
and motor, contactor, or electrical damage
may occur.
