154 Here are some general guidelines when inserting the wires into the SSC-32 and Bot Board II. Use a 2mm wide flat blade screw driver. Rotate the screw both directions looking into the end of the terminal. When you see it open up, keep turning until it is open completely. Wrap the wires by hand to ensure they are aligned as in Figure
155 7. Be sure that the wires are fully inserted into the terminals and that no stray wires are able to touch each other as this is a short and can cause the battery to discharge rapidly, causing heat and possibly fire.
