RAD-SOL-BAT-12-40-batteries should be shipped fully charged. However, if batteries have
been in storage for a long period of time, the charge in the battery may be weakened. We
recommend that you always check the remaining non-load voltage to avoid any problems.
If the voltage reads below 12.4 volts, recharge the batteries before they are installed.
Always use a well regulated constant-voltage charger. Set the charger no higher than
13.8 volts at a charge rate of no more than 10 A per battery.
1. If necessary, attach the pole terminals [8] to the poles of battery 1 [9] and battery 2 [10]
and tighten these fully using a wrench (13 mm).
2. Slacken the connectîng screws (6) of the connection terminal blocks using a wrench
(10 mm).
3. Connect the cable [4] (e. g., red*) to the positive pole of battery 1 [9] and tighten it using
a wrench (10 mm).
4. Connect the connecting cable between battery 1 and battery 2 and tighten it using a
wrench (10 mm).
Minus pole [–] battery 1 to plus pole [+] battery 2 (see Figure 4-18 on page 4-31).
5. Connect the cable [2] (e. g., marked with blue insulating tape*) to the negative pole of
battery 2 [10] and tighten it using a wrench (10 mm).

CAUTION: Risk of electric shock due to incorrect polarity
Short circuits caused by polarity reversal at cables can result in personal injury and
damage to the system.
• Avoid short circuits between the battery poles.
• Only use insulated tools.
• When connecting the battery, connect the plus pole first. When removing it,
disconnect the minus pole first. Make sure that the cables are connected with the
correct polarity.
• Make sure that the connection cables are fitted securely.
