General Safety Regulations
This instruction manual should be read carefully before
the initial use of the unit. If in doubt with regard to
connection and operation, contact the manufacturer (servicing
department).
Observe the instructions below carefully to provide for a
high degree of safety:
Warning: Do not operate unless with current
protection (FI) fitted!
Caution!
•Keep your workplace clean and tidy. Messy
workplace and disorder on the table increase the risk of
accident and injury.
•Mind the conditions of the environment you work in.
Do not use electric tools in moist and wet surroundings.
Provide for sufficient lighting. Do not expose the
electric tools to the rain or high atmospheric
moisture. Do not switch on in an area containing
inflammable liquids or gases.
•Do not admit any strangers to the machine. Visitors
and bystanders, children and the sick in particular keep
at a sufficient distance from your workplace.
•Provide for safe storage of the tools. The tools that
are not in current need should be stored at a dry
unapproachable or an elevated place.
•Watch out for the cable. Do not pull the cable. To
unplug, always grasp at the plug. Keep the cable at a
safe distance from sources of heat, oil and sharp edges.
•Provide against unintentional switching. Always
make sure that the tool switch is in OFF position before
plugging in.
•When working outdoors, use special extension
cables. To work outdoors, special extension cables are
needed, mark in the appropriate way.
•Always remain concentrated. Mind what you are
doing. Use common sense. Do not use electrical tools
when feeling tired. .
•Watch out for damaged parts. Check out the unit
before use. Are some parts damaged? If the damage is
slight, reconsider whether the unit is able of perfect and
safe operation.
•Prevent any electrical shock. Avoid any contact of
your body with grounded articles, e.g. water piping,
heating radiators, stoves and fridges.
•Use approved parts only. For maintenance and
repairs, use genuine spare parts only. The spare parts
may be obtained from an authorised servicing centre.
•Warning! Use of accessories and additional parts other
than those recommended in the operating manual may
present a threat for persons and things.
Initial Operation Safety Instructions
•Before starting set-up or maintenance of the unit,
disconnect it from the source.
Connect the charger until the power supply, if all
the settings and the terminals are properly connected.
•Having removed the packing, make sure that the
condition of the unit and any of its component is perfect.
•Unwind the power cable completely and put it so the
pole terminals cannot get in touch with each other.
•If necessary, use an extension cable to extend the
power cable; it must be of the same cross section as the
power cable. Never use cable of smaller cross section.
•Keep the clamps, terminals and upper surface of the
battery clean, if necessary, use the wire brush to clean
the battery terminals. In this way, a good electrical
contact will be provided and better charging efficiency
secured.
•Never mix connections poling! ( (-) black; (+) red )
•The charging voltage should be same as that shown on
the battery i; the value is equal to the number of cells of
a storage battery multiplied by two
(3 cells = 6 V; 6 cells = 12 V; 12 cells = 24 V).
•Before charging, put the unit on a stable base and make
sure that noting will prevent air flow through the
respective holes. A good cooling system must be
guaranteed.
•Do not charge more batteries at a time.
•The battery closure should be removed after cleaning
the terminals not to have dust and dirt falling in the tubs.
•Provide for the electrolyte covering the plates up to the
height of 4-5 mm at least, If necessary, add distilled
water that may be obtained at shops for this purpose.

Put the axle through the charger (Fig.1/2). Fit the supplied
safety rings on. Mount the wheels (Fig.1/1) on the axle and
secure them with safety rings (Fig .6).
Put the wheels covers on.
Screw on the foot (Fig. 1/4) using the supplied screws
(Fig.1/3).
Operation
Unplug before any adjustment and set up.
Charging (Fig .3)
•Connect the charger to the battery to be recharged
•Always connect the black cable first, to the negative pole.
Connect the red pole cable to the positive pole.
The battery should be completely disconnected from
the vehicle before getting down to charging.
•Always set the charger at the lowest charging degree
(min/1) (Fig.3/8)
•Now, plug in and control the charging degrees upwards
until charging current equal to ca 10% of the battery
capacity is displayed.
•Charging degrees may be increased by falling charging
current. (Fig.3/7)
•Do not disconnect the battery from terminals later than
3-5 hours after charging is finished.
•Notice. The charging current indicator will not
come back to zero after charging is finished.
Charging Time
•The charging time always depends on the battery status
(nearly charged, half-charged or completely discharged)
•To recover a battery that is normally in use 2 – 4 hrs are
sufficient, while for full recharging 8-10 hrs are needed.
•Charging time should not be exceeded (10 hrs
max.).
Start-up Assistance
•CAUTION! At the startup process can overvoltages
arise, the on-board electronics could damage their
vehicle. Please discuss with your automotive specialist.
•Connect the batteries as shown in part “Charging” and
leave it connected to the vehicle!
•On principle, two persons should always start up a
vehicle with chargers.
•The charger on max. Performance are:
Switching stage 2 (Fig. 3/7) and "BOOST" (Fig. 3/8).
•The first person shall push the Start button on the
charger (Fig. 3/9). The other one shall immediately start
the ignition, max. 9-10 sec.
•As the vehicle starts up, stop starting immediately
•If the attempt to start fails, wait about 5 minutes for the
charger to get cooled and only then begin another
attempt to start.
Tip: If you change the battery for 10-15 minutes to
subpoena requires much less battery power startup.
Warning: The fuses may burn through and the
vehicle damaged if the starting time is more than 10 s.
Note: The terminals may not touch.
Notice: The charger is equipped with overload
protection.
Important: A change of drop-out fuses for fuses (pic. 3/5)
not corresponding to fuses in the appliance can cause
material damage or injury of persons.
Change the drop-out fuses only when the power cord is
unplugged!

Troubles-Causes-Troubleshooting
Notice: Always check the overload protection first!
Overload circuit-breaker:
1. Connect the red clamp to the positive pole (+) and the
black one to the negative pole (-).
2. Remove the contact and check the fuses.
3. Set the charger at the lowest charging degree. .
4. If the battery power input is too high, it is recommended
to have the battery charging done by a skilled electrician
and to keep the level of charge high by frequent
charging or to get a more powerful charger.
Have the battery checked by a specialist. Replace the
battery.
Too heavy charging current at the beginning of charging
1. Watch out the charging current if it is high even after 15 -
20 minutes, it may mean that the charge would not hold
Have the battery checked at a specialist’s. Replace the
battery.
Too weak charging current .
1. Try to adjust the charging current control higher.
Ammeter pointer touches the lowest position of the scale
1. Have the battery checked at a specialist. Replace the
batteries
2. Ensure that the mains voltage is equal to the desired
value
Ammeter does not indicate.
1. Clean the terminals and put the clamp on again.
2. Have it checked at a specialist´s . Replace the battery.
Check on the charger working ability on a perfect
charged battery.
Overload Causes
1. Mixing up the poles when connecting the clamp to the
battery
2. The battery is heavily or completely discharged.
3. Battery is completely discharged and its capacity is
higher than the charger power
4. Battery is damaged or defective (internal elements short
circuit).
