Battery Charger Cable Assembly Types
Included with the Rescue® Battery Charger are two output options for connecting the
charger to a battery. Either cable assembly can be connected to the charger in seconds
with the quick-connection feature on the cable assemblies.
1. Battery Clamp cable assembly:
Used for a wide variety of battery terminals,
recommended for batteries that are easily
accessible
IMPORTANT: CONNECT AND DISCONNECT THE CHARGER OUTPUT ONLY AFTER REMOVING THE
AC PLUG FROM THE ELECTRICAL OUTLET. NEVER ALLOW THE BATTERY CLAMPS TO TOUCH EACH
OTHER WHEN THE BATTERY CHARGER IS ENERGIZED.
• Identify the polarity of the battery posts. The positive post will be marked with a "P",
"+", "POS", or the color RED. The negative post will be marked with an "N", "-", "NEG",
or the color BLACK
• The charger's output cables have color-coded battery clamps, Red for Positive (+) and
Black for Negative (-)
• Connect the Black clamp (-) to the corresponding Negative terminal first, then connect
the Red clamp (+) to the corresponding Positive terminal
• Connect the charger to a grounded AC electrical outlet. The "power" light will illuminate.
The battery charger is activated
• If the charging clamps are connected in reverse, the power light will illuminate but the
"charging" or "full" lights will not activate. This is indication of a reverse polarity connec-
tion. Unplug the charger from the AC electrical outlet and check the connections
2. Ring Terminal cable assembly:
The ring terminals permanently attach to the
battery providing easy access to quickly charge
your battery. This application is appropriate for
motorcycles, lawn tractors, ATV's, snowmobiles,
and other vehicles that are stored or have hard to
access battery locations
• To permanently attach the ring terminals to a battery, loosen and remove each nut from
the bolts at the battery terminals
• Connect the RED Positive ring terminal to the Positive battery terminal
• Connect the BLACK Negative ring terminal to the Negative battery terminal
• Replace and tighten the nuts to secure each ring terminal in place
