1. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1.1 SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS –
This manual contains important safety
and operating instructions.
1.2 Keep out of reach of children.
1.3 Do not expose the charger to rain or
snow.
1.4 Use of an attachment not recommended
or sold by the battery charger
manufacturer may result in a risk of re,
electric shock or injury to persons.
1.5 To reduce the risk of damage to electric
plug and cord, pull by the plug rather than
the cord when disconnecting charger.
1.6 An extension cord should not be used
unless absolutely necessary. Use of
improper extension cord could result
in a risk of re and electric shock. If an
extension cord must be used, make sure:
• The pins on plug of extension cord are
the same number, size and shape as
those of plug on charger.
• The extension cord is properly wired and
in good electrical condition.
• The wire size is large enough for AC
ampere rating of charger, as specied in
section 8.
1.7 Do not operate charger with damaged
cord or plug – replace the cord or plug
immediately.
1.8 Do not operate charger if it has received
a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise
damaged in any way; take it to a qualied
serviceperson.
1.9 Do not disassemble charger; take it to
a qualied serviceman when service or
repair is required. Incorrect reassembly
may result in a risk of electric shock or
re.
1.10 To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug
charger from outlet before attempting
any maintenance or cleaning. Turning off
controls will not reduce this risk.
1.11 WARNING:
RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES.
a. WORKING IN 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.
b. To reduce risk of battery explosion,
follow these instructions and those
published by battery manufacturer
and manufacturer of any equipment
you intend to use in vicinity of battery.
Review cautionary markings on these
products and on the engine.
2. PERSONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
2.1 Consider having someone close enough
by to come to your aid when you work
near a lead-acid battery.
2.2 Have plenty of fresh water and soap
nearby in case battery acid contacts skin,
clothing, or eyes.
2.3 Wear complete eye protection and
clothing protection. Avoid touching eyes
while working near battery.
2.4 If battery acid contacts skin or clothing,
wash immediately with soap and water.
If acid enters eye, immediately ood
eye with running cold water for at least
10 minutes and get medical attention
immediately.
2.5 NEVER smoke or allow a spark or ame
in vicinity of battery or engine.
2.6 Be extra cautious to reduce risk of
dropping a metal tool onto battery. It might
spark or short-circuit battery or other
electrical part that may cause explosion.
2.7 Remove personal metal items such as
rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches
when working with a lead-acid battery. A
lead-acid battery can produce a short-
circuit current high enough to weld a ring
or the like to metal, causing a severe burn.
2.8 Use the charger for charging only
12V LEAD-ACID (STD, AGM or GEL)
rechargeable batteries. It is not intended
to supply power to a low voltage electrical
system other than in a starter-motor
application. Do not use battery charger
for charging dry-cell batteries that are
commonly used with home appliances.
These batteries may burst and cause
injury to persons and damage to property.
2.9 NEVER charge a frozen battery.
