Check the polarity of the battery posts. A positive (PoS, P, +) battery post usually has a
larger diameter than the negative (neG, n, –) battery post.
Follow the manufacturers' instructions to remove any insulating covers from the battery
posts. Connect the positive (red) clamp from the battery charger to the positive (PoS, P, +)
post of the battery.
Connect the negative (black) clamp from the battery charger to the negative (neG, n, –)
post of the battery or to the chassis. Then, connect the ac plug of the battery charger into
the ac mains socket.
