b) Set the clamps in the battery and chassis as indicated in 1 (e), 1 (f),
1 (b) and 1 (d).
1. FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN THE BATTERY IS INSTALLED IN THE
VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY MAY CAUSE AN EXPLOSION.
TO REDUCE THE RISK NEAR THE BATTERY:
a) To reduce the risk of damage, place the current cables on the hood,
door or any place in the motor.
b) Keep them away from the fan blades, bands, pulleys and other parts
that could injure people.
c) Check the polarity of the battery posts. The POSITIVE (POS, P +)
battery post, usually is of a larger diameter than the NEGATIVE
(NEG, N, -) post.
d) Determine which of the battery posts is grounded (connected) to
the chassis. If the negative post is grounded to the chassis (as it is
in most vehicles), see item (e). If the positive post is grounded to
the chassis, see item (f).
e) In vehicles grounded with the negative, connect the POSITIVE (RED)
of the charger to the post that is not grounded POSITIVE (POS, P +)
post of the battery. Do not connect the clamp in the carburetor,
fuel lines or body metal sheets. Connect into a metal part with tick
caliber or a block in the motor.
f) In vehicles grounded with the positive, connect the NEGATIVE (BLACK)
clamp of the battery charger to the post that is not grounded to the
NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) post of the battery. Connect the POSITIVE (RED)
clamp to the vehicle chassis or to a block in the motor away from
the battery.
g) When disconnecting the charger, also disconnect the power cable.
Remove the clamp from the vehicle chassis and then, remove the
clamp from the battery terminal.
e) In vehicles grounded with the negative, connect the POSITIVE (RED)
clamp of the charger to the post that is not grounded POSITIVE (POS,
P +) of the battery. Do not connect the clamp in the carburetor, fuel
lines or body metal sheets. Connect into a metal part with tick caliber
or a block in the motor.
f) In vehicles grounded with the positive, connect the NEGATIVE (BLACK)
clamp to the post that is not grounded to the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -)
post of the battery. Connect the POSITIVE (RED) clamp to the vehicle
chassis or to a block in the motor away from the battery.
g) When disconnecting the charger, also disconnect the power cable.
Remove the clamp from the vehicle chassis and thorn, remove the
clamp from the battery terminal.
2. FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN THE BATTERY IS OUTSIDE OF THE
VEHICLE A SPARK IN THE VICINITY OF THE BATTERY MAY CAUSE
AN EXPLOSION TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SPARKS GENERATING NEAR
THE BATTERY:
a) Check polarity in the battery post. The POSITIVE (POS, P +) battery
post OF THE BATTERY, USUALLY HAS A LARGER DIAMETER THAN THE
(NEG, N, -) post.
b) Attach a 24-inch long, insulated battery cable, at least 6-gauge (AWG),
to the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) pole of the battery.
c) Connect the POSITIVE (RED) clamp on the charger to the POSITIVE
(POS, P, +) post on the battery.
d) Place your body and the free end of the cable as far away from the
battery as possible. Then connect the NEGATIVE (BLACK) charger
clamp to the free end of the cable.
e) Do not stand in front of the battery when making the final connection.
f) When disconnecting the charger, do so in reverse sequence to the
connection procedure and disconnect the first connection by placing
yourselves as far away as possible.
g) The battery of a marine boat must be removed and charged on land.
Specially designed marine equipment is required to charge on board.

INSTRUCTIONS TO GROUND AND CONNECT AN ALTERNATE
CURRENT CABLE
To reduce the risk of electric shock, the charger shall be grounded. The
charger is equipped with an electric cable with a grounded conductor
and a grounded plug. The plug shall be connected into power supply
dully installed and grounded complying with the local codes and
ordinances.
NEVER modify the cable or the alternate
WARNING
current plug installed in the equipment. If it cannot be
plugged in the power supply, call a certified electrician to
connect the suitable power supply. A connection if not
adequate may cause an electric shock.
This battery charger is manufactured to be used in a 127 V~ rated power
circuit and a grounded plug that looks like indicated in figure A.
A temporary adapter similar to the adapter shown in figures B and C
can be used if an adequate power supply is not available. The adapter
can be plugged into a two-pole power supply as shown in figure B. This
temporary adapter shall only be used until a certified electrician will
install a duly grounded power supply.

WARNING
Before using the adapter as shown, double
check the screw in the center of the power supply plate (if
existing) is grounded. The rigid ring or green connection lug
coming out from the adapter shall be connected into a grounded
power supply.
If necessary, replace the plate screw with a longer screw to fasten
the rigid ring or lug and to make a grounded connection with the
grounded power supply.
When the battery charger is connected and the switch is in the ON
position, be careful not to touch together the connection grippers.
Never charge a battery in the ON position. Do not charge a 6 V battery
in the 12 V position.
