    13. Recommendations when Using the Fastrack Xtend on Trucks Caution: The power supply connection of the Fastrack Xtend must never be directly connected to the truck battery. 13.1. Recommended Power Supply Connection on Trucks All trucks have a circuit breaker on the exterior of the cabin. The circuit breaker is used for safety reasons: if a fire blazes in the trucks, (for example, on the wiring trunk) the driver may cut the current source to avoid any damage (explosion).

  • Page 103: Technical Constraints On Trucks

    Recommendations when Using the Fastrack Xtend User Guide Fastrack Xtend on Trucks 13.2. Technical Constraints on Trucks It is highly recommended to directly connect the power supply on the circuit breaker rather than on the battery. The Fastrack Xtend may be damaged when starting the truck if the circuit breaker is switched OFF (in this case, the truck ground and the battery ground will be connected through the Fastrack Xtend as shown in the following figure).
