Assembly and Installation Continued)
Battery cables SHOULD NOT be drawn taut. Leave slack for some cable movement. The
battery cables SHOULD BE secure, out of the way of moving parts, road debris, or any
possibility of being damaged by operation or maintenance of the vehicle. For example,
the battery cables may be routed under the vehicle, attaching them to the frame using
suitable fasteners such as cable ties (not included). DO NOT attach the Battery Cables
to the exhaust system, drive shaft, emergency brake cable, fuel line, or any other com-
ponents which may cause damage to the battery cables through heat or motion, or cre-
ate a fire hazard. If a hole is drilled through the bumper or any other part of the vehicle,
make sure to install a rubber grommet (not included) in the hole to prevent fraying of
the battery cables at that point. The use of at least a 650 Cold Cranking Amps (CCA)
battery is highly recommended.
