SAFETY INFORMATION
Important Safety Instructions
• Keep out of reach of children.
• DO NOT expose the charger to rain or snow.
• Use only recommended attachments. Use of attachments not recommended or sold by
MotoMaster® may result in a risk of re, electric shock or injury to persons, or damage to property.
• To reduce the risk of damage to the electric plug or cord, pull by the plug rather than the cord
when disconnecting the charger.
• An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of an improper extension
cord could result in a risk of re and electric shock. If an extension cord must be used, make sure:
– That the pins on the plug of the extension cord are the same number, size and shape as those of
the plug on the charger.
–That the extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition.
– T hat the wire size is large enough for the AC ampere rating of the charger as specied on page 5.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug the charger from the outlet before attempting any
maintenance or cleaning. Simply turning o the controls will not reduce this risk.
• DO NOT operate the charger with a damaged cord or plug; have the cord or plug replaced
immediately by a qualied service person. (Call customer service at 1-800-528-6817.)
• DO NOT operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped or otherwise damaged
in any way; take it to a qualied service person. (Call customer service at 1-800-528-6817.)
• DO NOT disassemble the charger; take it to a qualied service person when service or repair is
required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of re or electric shock. (Call customer service at
1-800-528-6817.)
• WORKING IN THE VICINITY OF A LEAD-ACID BATTERY IS DANGEROUS. BATTERIES GENERATE
EXPLOSIVE GASES DURING NORMAL BATTERY OPERATION. FOR THIS REASON, IT IS OF UTMOST
IMPORTANCE THAT YOU FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS EACH TIME YOU USE THE CHARGER.
• To reduce the risk of a battery explosion, follow these instructions and those published by the
battery manufacturer and the manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in the vicinity of
the battery. Review the cautionary markings on these products and on the engine.
