Using this Blue Sea battery switch is easy. First, choose the right mounting option - you can mount it on the surface, rear, or front panel according to your needs.

The locking key can be used to prevent accidental on/off switches. When it comes to maintenance, keep the switch clean and dry. Since it's waterproof, it can handle water jets, but try to avoid long - term submersion. Check the connections regularly to ensure they haven't loosened over time. If you notice any signs of corrosion on the tin - plated copper studs, clean them gently. This switch is rated for 300 Amps continuous use, so don't overload it.
