GROUNDING AND AC POWER CORD CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS
Charger should be grounded to reduce risk of electric shock. Charger is equipped with an electric cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER: NEVER ALTER AC CORD OR PLUG PROVIDED - IF IT WILL NOT FIT OUTLET, HAVE PROPER OUTLET
INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN. IMPROPER CONNECTION CAN RESULT IN A RISK OF AN ELECTRIC
SHOCK.
This battery charger is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding
plug that looks like the plug illustrated in the sketch below. A temporary adapter,
which looks like the adapter illustrated in sketches B and C below, may be used
to connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly
grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only
until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician.
DANGER: BEFORE USING ADAPTER AS ILLUSTRATED, BE CERTAIN
THAT CENTER SCREW OF OUTLET PLATE IS GROUNDED. THEN GREEN-
COLORED RIGID EAR OR LUG EXTENDING FROM ADAPTER MUST BE
CONNECTED TO A PROPERLY GROUNDED OUTLET - MAKE CERTAIN IT IS
GROUNDED. IF NECESSARY, REPLACE ORIGINAL OUTLET COVER PLATE
SCREW WITH A LONGER SCREW THAT WILL SECURE ADAPTER EAR OR
LUG TO OUTLET COVER PLATE AND MAKE GROUND CONNECTION TO
GROUNDED OUTLET.
PREPARING TO CHARGE BATTERY:
1. If it is necessary to remove battery from vehicle to
charge, always remove grounded terminal from battery
first. Make sure all accessories in the vehicle are off,
so as not to cause an arc.
2. 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.
3. Clean battery terminals with a mixture of baking soda
and hot water. Be careful to keep corrosion from
coming in contact with eyes.

1. Locate the charger as far away from the battery as DC
cables permit.
2. Never place the charger directly above the battery
being charged; gases from the battery will corrode and
damage the charger.
3. Never allow battery acid to drip on the charger when
reading specific gravity or filling the battery.

BATTERY CHARGER CONNECTION PRECAUTIONS
1. CAUTION: Connect and disconnect DC output clips only after setting any switches with an OFF position to OFF and
removing AC power cord from electric outlet. Never allow clips to touch each other.
2. When hooking up charger, attach one clip to battery and the other to a point away from battery (see sections G & H).
Do not hook up charger until reading sections A–J.
PREPARATION
LOCATING THE CHARGER
4. 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 Maintenance Free Batteries - carefully follow
manufacturer's recharging instructions.
5. Study all battery manufacturer's specific precautions
such as removing or not removing cell caps while
charging and recommended rates of charge.
6. Determine voltage of battery by referring to vehicle
owner's manual and make sure that charger output
voltage matches vehicle voltage.
4. Do not operate the charger in a closed area or restrict
ventilation in any way.
5. Do not set a battery on top of the charger.
6. Locate the charger at least 18" above the floor.
7. Do not place the charger where rain, snow, or other
moisture could drip on it.
