Note: It does not make a difference
which factory horn wire is
connected to terminal 85.
16. Connect relay terminal 86 to
the other factory horn wire.
17. Connect relay terminal 30 to
positive (+) 12-volts such as the
battery, alternator or fuse block,
using 16-gauge or heavier wire.
WARNING: The 20-amp inline
fuse provided must be connected
directly to the power source.
18. Connect relay terminal 87 to the compressor’s positive (+) terminal. Use not less than 16-gauge wire.
19. Connect the compressor’s negative (-) terminal to boat’s negative (-) battery post or any clean metal
negative surface. Use not less than 16-gauge wire.
