connected in series.
Use the supplied wires to connect to the batteries, and to connect two batteries in series.
Since the batteries used are maintenance free, and the ECD automatically controls the
battery charging, discharge and test, no SPECIAL maintenance is required.

Connect the battery to the ECD main board battery terminal block using the supplied
wires. Observe polarity.
Keep the batteries clean and dry
Keep the area well ventilated
Smoking, fire or sparks ARE NOT ALLOWED near batteries.
