6.
Connect one connector on the NEGATIVE (–) cable to the 
NEGATIVE (–) DC terminal on the inverter/charger, as shown 
in Figure 7. The connector goes on first, then the lock washer 
and bolt.
7.
Before proceeding, check that the cable polarity is correct: 
POSITIVE (+) on the inverter/charger is connected to the 
POSITIVE (+) on the battery, and NEGATIVE (–) cable is 
connected to the NEGATIVE (–) terminal on the inverter/
charger.
8.
Connect the other end of the cable to the NEGATIVE (–) 
terminal on the battery.
9.
Use a wrench to tighten the bolt to a torque of 20.4–21.7 Nm at 
the inverter/charger end.
10. To protect the DC terminals, attach the DC terminal covers 
(Figure 8) to the inverter/charger, using the screws provided.

IMPORTANT: The next step is the last cable connection you need to 
make. A spark is normal when the DC disconnect switch is turned on or the 
DC circuit breaker is closed so be sure step #3 is done before proceeding.
