5.7 Connecting the Standby Batteries
The two standby batteries must be connected in series with the battery link provided. Observing
correct polarity (red lead to the positive of one battery and black lead to the negative of the other
battery) carefully push the spade connectors of the 3500 battery leads onto the battery terminals
(illustrated in figure 5.4).
Please note that at this point the 3500 will not power up until the mains supply is connected.
