1.4.2 Battery Recommendations & Lead Size

The minimum requirement for the battery is 650 cold cranking amps. Use table 3 to determine the
minimum battery lead diameter, otherwise a considerable voltage drop will occur.

1.4.3 Battery Cable Routing
WARNING
ALWAYS route battery cables along a path that allows the cables to be secured with zip ties.
Loose or unsecured power cables can cause serious injury or death.
Option 1:
When using option one; Secure your battery to the trailer. Connect the positive and negative leads
directly to the battery. This option will require the battery to be charged when not in use.

Option 2:
1. This option is ideal when a boat always uses the same tow vehicle.
2. Using Table 3 select the correct diameter wire for the length of wire used.
3. Plan the routing path.
4. Loosely secure power cables along path.
5. Confirm power cables are protected from sharp edges, heat and moving parts. Consider chassis
flex and vibration which might damage cable.
6. Carefully inspect electrical cable routing. Zip tie and secure electrical cables. Zip ties should be
snug, but not cutting into wire insulation. Use electrical tape, pieces of rubber hose or
electrical conduit to protect electrical cables and wire harness where needed to avoid
electrical cable insulation wear or abrasion.
