22 Freedom Xi Installation Guide
Basic Installation Procedures
12. Before proceeding, double check that the cable you have just
installed connects the positive DC terminal of the inverter to
the disconnect/battery selector switch, fuse holder, and that the
other end of the fuse holder is connected to the positive
terminal of the battery.
NOTICE
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
Tighten the nuts on terminals properly. Loose connections cause
excessive voltage drop and may cause overheated wires and melted
insulation.
Do not over-tighten the nut on the DC input terminals. Damage to the DC
input terminals may result. The maximum torque setting is 120 in-lbf
(13.6 N-m).
Failure to follow these instructions can damage the unit and/or equipment.
NOTICE
REVERSE POLARITY DAMAGE
Check cable polarity at both the battery and the Freedom Xi before
making the final DC connection. Positive must be connected to positive;
negative must be connected to negative.
Reversing the positive and negative battery cables will blow a fuse in the
Freedom Xi and void your warranty.
Failure to follow these instructions can damage the unit and/or equipment.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
Do not complete the next step if flammable fumes are present. Explosion
or fire may result if the disconnect/battery selector switch is not in the off
position. Thoroughly ventilate the battery compartment before making
this connection.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.
