1. Insert batteries (Fig. 9A) into the battery box (Fig. 9B) and secure them in place by tightening up the
nylon straps (Fig. 9C).
Note: The Curt Battery Box was designed to hold 2 group 24 batteries. Number of batteries installed is at
the discretion of the installer and should be based on electrical supply needs of the trailer.

2. Connect the red cable (Fig. 10A) from the quick disconnect switch (Fig. 10B) to a positive battery
post (Fig. 10C).
Note: Connection of the red input to positive battery terminal is flexible and can be varied depending on
the position of the battery terminal posts.

All ground connections, whether series or parallel, must be made first. The ground connections are all of the
black cables. Attach the primary (main) (large) black cable to the first battery, then ground to the chassis, if
applicable.
Connect the remainder of the black ground (-) cables.
Now that the batteries are fully grounded, it is safe to connect the red (+) cables.
When disconnecting from the batteries, the order is reversed; red cables come off first, then the black
cables. The batteries should always remain grounded when hooking up to or disconnecting from
the batteries.
