Don't know for certain but I suspect that the manufacturer will have something on their Internet

Depends on the amperage draw of the motor and the cable length.

35m2 minimum. The bigger the better so 50mm2 or even 70mm2? I would recommend a fuse directly at the battery.

If you have difficulty finding bulk cable of suitable size, sometimes a "cheap" set of Jumper Leads will do the job, just swap the alligator clips for the appropriate sized terminals.
