6.3 Wall Mounting
STEPS:
1. Securely mount a piece of plywood on the wall for the Power Pak to be installed upon.
2. Mount the Mounting Plate to the plywood. The Mounting Panel will support the weight of the Power
Pak so it must be secure. Use at least 3 #12 pan head wood screws (1” min.) on the mounting plate of
the MINI or COMPACT. Use at least 4 screws for the GRANDE.
3. Hook the bottom rail of the Power Pak onto the lip of the Mounting Panel. The Mounting Panel will
support the weight of the Power Pak. Use 3 screws in the top rail to secure the Power Pak to the wall.
6.4 Battery Connection
WARNING
Failure to follow these instructions may result in sparking and damage to the batteries.
Before connecting the batteries, ensure the battery bank is configured to provide the correct
voltage for the specific Power Pak model being installed. See Appendix 1 for specifications.
Do NOT let the black and red cable ends touch each other at any time. Ensure polarities are
connected correctly.
Do NOT let any metal object fall across the terminals during the installation.
STEPS:
1. Make sure the Battery Switch [11] is off.
2. Place the batteries close to the Power Pak (less than 10 ft) to reduce the energy lost in the cable.
3. Connect one end of the temperature sensor to the Power Pak and place the other end next to the
batteries. The temperature of the batteries is used by the Power Pak to determine the correct
charging voltage. This is very important if the Power Pak is used in cold temperatures.
4. Set the battery type using the Battery Type Selector switch located beside the On/Off switch. Choose 1
for Gel, 2 for AGM and 4 for flooded. See Section 8.2.1 for a complete list of choices.
Failure to select the correct type may result in damage, fire or explosion.
