Estimated time: 30m
Tools needed:
Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Crimping tool
Supplies needed:
Heat shrink insulation tubing, KOPR-SHIELD compound, Battery connectors, Torque wrench
- Disconnect battery cables
Before starting the installation, disconnect the battery cables from the battery posts. Note the location of the positive and negative terminals to ensure correct reconnection.
- Prepare the battery cables
Carefully strip the insulation from the ends of the battery cables without nicking the strands. Ensure the conductor strands are clean and free of dirt.
- Select and crimp connectors
Choose the appropriate connector based on the gauge of the battery cable. Insert the stripped end of the cable into the connector and use the crimping tool to compress it according to the specified instructions.
- Apply heat shrink insulation
If using heat shrink insulation, position it over the crimped connector and apply heat until it shrinks tightly around the connector, ensuring a secure fit.
- Install connectors to battery terminals
Connect the positive lead to the positive battery terminal and the negative lead to the negative terminal. Use a torque wrench to apply a torque of 10 to 15 ft. lbs. for proper installation.
