    • Install the fuse between the battery positive and the main positive.

Installing New Lithium Batteries:

  1. Secure Mounting:
    • Safely mount the new lithium batteries on the cart.
  2. Connect Main Wires:
    • Start with the positive wire and proceed to connect all main wires.
    • Apply 10 foot-pounds of torque on each connection.
  3. Final Check and Sealing:
    • Double-check all connections before proceeding.
    • Test the cart to ensure proper functioning.
    • Apply dielectric grease to battery terminals to seal them from the environment.

Connecting 12V converter :

  • Use a 36/48V to 12V converter to maintain battery pack balance if you have 12V lighting or accessory connections.

Monitoring and Maintenance:

  1. Monitoring Battery Usage:
    • Be aware of LiFePO4 battery’s aggressive drain curve for a more precise understanding of usage.
    • Use compatible battery monitors for accurate readings and better battery management.
  2. Maintaining Your Battery:
    • Discharge the battery as much as possible before recharging to prolong its life.
    • Use only the Redway Power Lithium charger and maintain charging temperature above freezing.
    • Handle batteries carefully to maximize their lifespan.

By following these steps and safety precautions, you can effectively install and maintain lithium golf cart batteries on a 36V or 48V golf cart, ensuring optimal performance and longevity.
