Using this Ancor battery cable assembly is straightforward. First, make sure your battery is turned off to avoid any electrical shocks. Connect one end of the cable to the battery terminal that matches the cable's positive or negative charge, depending on your setup. The 3/8 - inch stud is designed to fit standard battery terminals easily. When handling the cable, be gentle to avoid damaging the fine - stranded wires. As for maintenance, regularly check the heatshrink tubing for any signs of wear or damage. If you notice the tubing is cracked or peeling, replace it as soon as possible to keep moisture out. Also, keep the cable clean and dry, especially if you're using it in a marine environment. Avoid exposing the cable to extreme heat or cold for long periods.
