4.2. Unpacking Check the Li-ion battery for damage after unpacking. If the Li-ion battery is damaged, contact your reseller or Super B. Do not install or use the Li-ion battery if it is damaged!
4.4. Connection wires Use appropriate wire for the connection wires to prevent overheating and unnecessary losses. Use appropriate fuses matching the wires and load. Super B suggests to use a 95mm2 connection wires. Connection wires with smaller diameters can cause overheating or unnecessary losses.
4.4.1. Connecting power cables with automotive type terminals 1. Connect the load or charger to the X2 (+) terminal of the Li-ion battery. (Figure 4) Warning! Do not connect the X1 (-) terminal first as this may lead to short circuits. 2.
Use the included M8 bolt, spring washer and plain washer to connect the Li-ion battery cable. 4. Ensure both contacts are tightened to 20Nm. 5. Place the handle covers over the terminals. (Figure 8) Figure 6. Remove the automotive power terminals. Be in charge. Super B.

OK: Equally divided battery current. All batteries contribute equally to the current into the load. NOT OK: Current not equally divided. Batteries closest to load will have the highest contribution to the current into the load. Whereas batteries further away from load will have lesser current contribution. Wear and tear will be higher on the battery close to the load.
