Locating the Charger:
Determine the position in the vehicle the PowerMate Unit will be using as it's charging station. The Battery Charger should be mounted in a
position that will allow visibility of the charger and give easy access for the charger output wire (6 feet) and charge plug to the PowerMate Unit.
The charger is equipped with adhesive backing for mounting to any flat surface.
NOTE:The mounting location should be free from moisture, dirt, and other contaminants. The charger should be mounted where the air is free to
move around it. It should never be located in a box, compartment, or covered by any object. Doing so may result in excess heating and reduced
performance. Do not expose the charger to any type of water spray. Do not immerse in water or any liquid. Should the charger become wet inside
it should be disconnected immediately and returned to the manufacturer for refurbishment. Mount where the charger and its cables will not be
physically damaged.
Input Wiring:
The installation will require a negative ground contact, and a positive wire coming from the vehicle battery. It is the installers responsibility to
ensure the wire is of proper size capable of carrying at least 7 Amps continuous. In order to ensure maximum performance of the charger, the
following wire sizes are recommended:
Attach a 1/4"Male Terminal Disconnect to the negative (Gnd.) wire and a 1/4"Female Terminal Disconnect to the positive wire. Slip on a piece of
Heat Shrink Tubing (provided) over the lead in connections and connect the lead in wires to the mating charger input wires. Slide the Heat Shrink
Tubing over the connections and shrink. Secure all wires to prevent damage. Wire loom material may be used. It is the installer's responsibility to
ensure the wiring to the vehicle battery and negative ground point are properly protected and secure.
NOTE: Refer to the Battery Charger Manufacturers documents provided for safety and operating instructions. Take into consideration
that this charger has been modified for remote location mounting.
