TOOLS / PARTS FOR INSTALLATION

natural_image
Mechanical assembly diagram showing a shaft and housing with no visible text or symbolsNOTE: TOOLS ARE NOT SUPPLIED
Small flat blade screwdriver Phillips screwdriver (#2 or medium sized), Wire cutters Wire strippers, - #6 round head screws, and 1 - #8 sheet metal screw (or nut, bolt, flat washer, star washer) [see detail] 2 - Ring connectors (large enough to accommodate your method of grounding) In-line fuse or circuit breaker - see fuse chart below Power and ground wire - see Power Wire Calculator on page 7 Speaker wire - 12-16 gauge Grommets (sized to work with the power wire you plan to use in your installation) Tube of silicone sealant
WIRING
Before beginning, disconnect the negative (-) terminal of the battery prior to working on the positive (+) terminal to prevent a short to ground. This is important, unless you want to spend the rest of your life with a nickname like "Sparky," or "Smokey." Reconnect the negative terminal only after all connections have been made.

Warning! A Main Fuse must be installed within 18" of battery!

PROTECTION CIRCUIT
Short Circuit Protection engaged: The amplifier will turn off and try to come back on immediately. The amplifier will cycle like this indefinitely, with "blips" of sound each time. If this is the case, check your speakers and wiring for low impedance and short circuits.
Thermal Protection engaged: The amplifier will turn off and several minutes later will come back on. In this case, ensure that there is nothing blocking the normal convective airflow of the amplifier. No obstruction should be within 2" of the amplifier on all sides.
NOTE: Low battery voltage will cause the amplifier to run warmer and possibly damage the amplifier.
