Setup and Installation

Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance and safety of your Quad Lock Motorcycle USB Charger. Follow these steps carefully.

1. Understanding the Charger Unit

The charger unit is designed to be compact and integrate directly with your Quad Lock motorcycle mount head. It features a USB-A output port for connecting your device's charging cable and a proprietary connection for the power input cable.

2. Connecting to Power Source

The charger can be connected to your motorcycle's power system via an existing SAE port or directly to the battery terminals.

• Option A: Connecting to Battery Terminals

  Use the provided 20cm SAE to Battery Ring Terminals Cable. Connect the ring terminals to your motorcycle's battery (red to positive, black to negative). Ensure a secure connection. Then, connect the SAE end of this cable to the 1.5m SAE Connection Cable, and finally, connect the other end of the 1.5m cable to the charger unit.

• Option B: Connecting to an Existing SAE Port

  If your motorcycle has an existing SAE power port, simply connect the 1.5m SAE Connection Cable directly to this port. Then, connect the other end of the 1.5m cable to the charger unit.

The charger is designed to draw zero current when not in use, preventing battery drain. It also includes integrated surge and polarity protection to safeguard against incorrect installation.

3. Integrating with Quad Lock Mount

The USB charger is designed to fit neatly under the head of your Quad Lock Moto Mount (Handlebar, Mirror, or Fork Stem Mount). This allows for a clean installation without long, dangling charging cables.

• Secure the charger to the mount head by twisting until it locks into place.
• Ensure all connections are firm and the charger is securely positioned to prevent movement during riding.
