General Safety
Information for 12 Volt DC Power
1. When connecting power leads, follow this order:
a. Connect POSITIVE or PLUS(+) terminal on motor to supply
lead first.
b. Connect NEGATIVE or MINUS(-) terminal last.
c. When DISCONNECTING – Disconnect NEGATIVE (-) first,
then disconnect POSITIVE (+) lead from motor terminal.
2. When attaching line leads to motor or battery/power supply
terminals, be sure that surrounding area is adequately ventilated
to prevent an explosion or fire from explosive or flammable
vapors that may be present
