to these instructions at a later date.
CAUTION.
2. To reduce risk of injury, charge only wet cell, lead-acid, automotive type rechargeable batteries. Other types of batteries may burst
causing personal injury and property damage.
3. Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
4. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the battery charger manufacturer may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
5. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger.
6. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
7. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock.
If an extension cord must be used, make sure:
a. That pins on plug of extension cord are the same number, size, and shape as those of plug on charger;
b. That extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition; and
c. If the length of the extension cord is less than 25 feet, use a 16AWG cord, If 50 feet- 12AWG, 100 feet-10AWG, 150 feet-8AWG.
8. Do not operate charger with damaged cord or plug, replace the cord or plug immediately.
9. Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way; take it to a qualified serviceman.
10. Do not disassemble charger; take it to a qualified serviceman when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of
electric shock or fire.
11. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger form outlet before attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Turning off controls will not reduce this
risk.
WARNING - RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES
12.
a. WORKING IN VICINITY OF A LEAD-ACID BATTERY IS DANGEROUS. BATTERIES GENERATE EXPLOSIVE GASES DURING NORMAL
BATTERY OPERATION. FOR THIS REASON IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE THAT EACH TIME BEFORE USING YOUR CHARGER,
YOU READ THIS MANUAL AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY.
b. To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and those published by battery manufacturer and manufacturer of any equipment
you intend to use in vicinity of battery. Review cautionary marking on these products and on engine.
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS
13.
a. Someone should be within range of your voice or close enough to come to your aid when you work near a lead-acid battery.
b. Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing, or eyes.
c. Wear complete eye protection, and clothing protection. Avoid touching eyes while working near battery.
d. If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If acid enter eye, immediately flood eye with running cold
water for at least 10 minutes and get medical attention immediately.
e. NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine.
f. Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool onto battery. It might spark or short circuit battery or other electrical part that may
cause explosion.
g. Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches when working with a lead-acid battery. A lead-acid battery
can produce a short circuit current high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal, causing a severe burn.
h. Use charger for charging a LEAD-ACID battery only. It is not intended to supply power to a low-voltage electrical system other than in a starter
motor application. Do not use battery charger for charging dry-cell batteries that are commonly used with home appliances. These batteries
may burst and cause injury to persons and damage to property.
i. NEVER charge a frozen battery.
PREPARING TO CHARGE
14.
a. If necessary to remove battery from vehicle to charge, always remove the grounded terminal from battery first. Make sure all accessories in
the vehicle are off, so as not to cause an arc.
b. Be sure area around battery is well ventilated while battery is being charged. Gas can be forcefully blown away by using a piece of cardboard
or other non-metallic material as a fan.
c. Clean battery terminals. Be careful to keep corrosion from coming in contact with eyes.
d. Add distilled water in each cell until battery acid reaches level specified by battery manufacturer. This helps purge excessive gas from cells.
Do not overfill. For a battery without cell caps, carefully follow manufacturer's recharging instructions.
e. Study all battery manufacturer's specific precautions such as removing or not removing cell caps while charging and recommended rates of
charge.
f. Determine voltage of battery by referring to car owner's manual and make sure that output voltage selector switch is set at correct voltage. If
charger has adjustable charge rate, charge battery initially at lowest rate.
CHARGER LOCATION
15.
a. Locate charger as far away from battery as dc cables permit.
b. Never place charger directly above battery being charged; gases from battery will corrode and damage charger.
c. Never allow battery acid to drip on charger when reading gravity or filling battery,
d. Do not operate charger in a closed-in area, or restrict ventilation in any way.
e. Do not set a battery on top of charger.
DC CONNECTION PRECAUTIONS
16.
a. Connect and disconnect dc output clips only after setting any charger switches to off position and removing ac cord from electric outlet. Never
allow clips to touch each other.
b. Attach clips to battery posts and twist or rock back and forth serval times to make a good connection. This tends to keep the clips from
slipping off terminals and helps to reduce risk of sparking.
FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS INSTALLED IN VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR BATTERY MAY CAUSE BATTERY
