d) Determine which post of battery is grounded (connected)
to the chassis. If negative post is grounded to the chassis
(as in most vehicles) see (e). If positive post is grounded to
the chassis, see (f).
e) For Negative-grounded vehicle, connect POSITIVE
(RED) clip from battery charger to POSITIVE
(POS, P, +) ungrounded post of battery. Connect
NEGATIVE (BLACK) clip to vehicle chassis or engine
block away from battery. Do not connect clip to carbu-
retor, fuel lines, or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a
heavy gage metal part of the frame or engine block.
f) For Positive-grounded vehicle, connect NEGATIVE
(BLACK) clip from battery charger to NEGATIVE
(NEG, N, –) ungrounded post of battery. Connect
POSITIVE (RED) clip to vehicle chassis or engine block
away from battery. Do not connect clip to carburetor,
fuel lines, or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a heavy
gage metal part of the frame or engine block.
g) When disconnecting charger, turn switches to off, discon-
nect AC cord, remove clip from vehicle chassis, and then
remove clip from battery terminal.
h) See operating instructions for length of charge
information.
FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN
16.
BATTERY IS OUTSIDE VEHICLE.
A SPARK NEAR BATTERY MAY
4 • EN
CAUSE BATTERY EXPLOSION.
TO REDUCE RISK OF
A SPARK NEAR BATTERY:
a) Check polarity of battery terminals. POSITIVE (POS,
P, +) battery post usually has a larger diameter than
NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) post.
b) Connect POSITIVE (RED) charger clip to POSITIVE (POS,
P, +) post of battery.
c) Position yourself and free end of cable as far away from
battery as possible – then connect NEGATIVE (BLACK)
charger clip to NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) post of battery.
d) Do not face battery when making the final connection.
e) When disconnecting charger, always do so in reverse
sequence of connecting procedure and break first con-
nection while as far away from battery as practical.
f) A marine (boat) battery must be removed and charged
on shore. To charge it on board requires equipment spe-
cially designed for marine use.
