LOFA EP250 Operation and Troubleshooting
8 463-3000-01 Rev C.1 - 28-Feb-2007
Harness
Sealed Connectors
The provided sealed weather proof plug includes a grey locking device which must be released to separate
the connectors. Press the tab on the connector housing to release the connectors.
Warning
LOFA does not recommend using dielectric grease or sealant with sealed connectors.
These chemicals may cause seal damage and allow water entry.
Use LOFA provided cavity plugs to seal the connector if wires are removed.
Unsealed Connectors
For unsealed connectors exposed to the elements, LOFA recommends using dielectric grease to protect
contacts.
Warning
LOFA does not recommend using sealant with unsealed connectors.
Sealant traps moisture in the connector and encourages corosion.
Harness Routing
The minimum routing of radius of the wiring harnesses should be at least two times the diameter of the
wiring harness. Bends should be avoided within 1 inch (25 mm) of any connector in order to avoid seal
distortion allowing moisture to enter the connector.
Note
For harness length in excess of 10 ft a relay must be added to the start solenoid circuit.
LOFA offers starter relay kits for mounting near the engine.
