Controller installation and wiring diagram
Use the drawing (F) and table to install and wire the controller
Connect power leads directly to the switched power source. Use of a 10 amp slow-blow fuse is recommended
in the battery (positive) wire.
Use proper terminations and crimping techniques to avoid elevated resistance and shorts.
Use of convoluted tubing or other wire shielding is recommended to minimize mechanical damage to the
wires. Avoid sharp edges and pinching when routing wires.
Mount the controller in a location where the effects of vibration and temperature are minimal.
