Only qualified personnel should install the vehicle
mount. When wiring the mount to your vehicle
make sure you observe the following safety
guidelines:

 Establish a route for the cables that is clear of

any moving parts or hot surfaces.

 Use cable ties to fix the mount cables to

existing cables in your vehicle.

 Use the proper gland when the cable must go

through a panel.

 Make sure the cable does not have any tight

bends. The minimum recommended radius is
2.5 inches (63.5 mm).

 Make sure the cables do not swing or rub

against the vehicle. Use cable ties
approximately every
12 inches (305 mm) so the cables do not flex.

Do not wind a cable through the mesh on a

cage. Route all cables inside the forklift.

 On electric vehicles, take power from as close

to the battery as possible, but not directly from
the battery and not before a main fuse.

 On gasoline, diesel, or propane vehicles, take

power from as close to the battery terminals as
possible. Do not use existing wiring.

 Connect the cables at the battery with an inline

fuse holder. Cables should be connected within
8-inches of the positive terminal.

 All fuses should be as close to the power

source as possible.

 When routing, make sure the fuse remains easy

to access for replacement.

Do not cut, splice, or otherwise rearrange your

vehicle’s wiring or components.

Do not use solder connections.
