ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS10.
Remove all cord wraps and uncoil the cables prior to using the battery charger.
CONTROL PANEL11.
Charge Rate Selector Switch
Use the Charge Rate selector switch to select the charge rate setting you
require.
5A or 10A Charge Rate• –Useforchargingautomotive,marineanddeep-
cycle batteries. Not intended for industrial applications. The charge rate of
either 5 or 10 amps may be used with any of the output voltages.
Voltage Selector Switch
Set the voltage selector switch to match the total of the battery voltages.
Connectthebatteriesinseriesonly(connectorsincluded).Theselectorswitch
is in 12 volt steps; never connect an odd number of 6 volt batteries. Two 6 volt
batteries connected in series equals one 12 volt battery. A combination of 6
and 12 volt batteries may be charged.
12, 24, 36, 48, 60 and 72 Volts• - Use to the proper voltage based on the
total voltage of the batteries hooked up. The total voltage of the batteries
must equal the switch setting.
Ammeter
The Ammeter indicates the amount of current, measured in amps, that is being
drawn by the battery. As a battery takes on a charge, it draws less current from
the charger. Correspondingly the meter will show less current being drawn by
the battery. When the current stops decreasing, the battery is charged.

•8 •
Percent of Charge•
The percent of charge scale is intended as a visual aid to help simplify
reading the state of charge. The percent of charge is based on the current
drawn by the battery. For this reason, accuracy will vary with the size and
battery type. This means that the indication for a fully charged large battery
may be slightly less than 100%.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS12.
This battery charger must be properly assembled in
accordance with the assembly instructions before it is used.
Charging
Ensure that all of the charger components are in place and in good working1. condition, for example, the plastic boots on the battery clips.
Connect the battery following the precautions listed in sections 6 and 7.2.
Connect the AC power following the precautions listed in section 8. Make3.
suretoplacethechargeronadry,non-ammablesurfacelikemetalor
concrete.
Select the appropriate voltage setting for your battery.4.
Turn the charger on by selecting a charge rate.5.
To disconnect, reverse the above procedure.6.
Manual Charging
When a manual charge is performed, the charger will continue to charge and
will not shut off. You must keep a visual check on the ammeter to determine
when the battery is charged. Be sure to monitor the charging process and stop
it when the battery is charged. Not doing so may cause damage to your battery
or result in other property damage or personal injury.
CALCULATING CHARGE TIME13.
The Hydrometer or Electronic Method
Tondthetimeneededtofullychargeyourbattery,determinethebattery’s
charge level with a hydrometer or electronic Percent-of-Charge Tester. The
following table will help you convert hydrometer readings to percent of charge
values.
SPECIFIC GRAVITY PERCENT OF CHARGE PERCENT OF CHARGE
NEEDED
1.265 100% 0%
1.225 75% 25%
1.155 25% 75%
1.120 0% 100%
WhenyouknowthepercentofchargeandtheAmpHour(AH)ratingofyour
battery, you can calculate the approximate time needed to bring your battery to
a full charge.
To convert Reserve Capacity to Amp Hours, divide Reserve Capacity by 2, and
add 16:

•9 •
Example:
Amp Hour Rating = Reserve Capacity+16
2
NOTE:TheReserveCapacitycanbeobtainedfromthebatteryspecication
sheet or the owner’s manual.
To calculate the time needed for a charge:
Findthepercentofchargeneeded.(Abatteryat50percentchargethatwill1.
bechargedto100percentneedsanother50percent(.50)).
MultiplytheAmpHourRatingbythechargeneeded(.50)anddividebythe2. charger setting.
Multiply the results by 1.25 and you will have the total time needed, in3. hours, to bring the battery to full charge.
Add an additional hour for a deep-cycle battery.4.
Example:
Amp Hour Rating x % of charge needed x 1.25 = hours of charge
Charger Setting
100(AHRating)x0.50(chargeneeded) x 1.25 = 3.125 hours
20(ChargerSetting)
100 x 0.50 x 1.25 = 6.25
10
You would need to charge your 100-Ampere Hour Battery for a little more than
6 hours at the 10-Amp charge rate using the above example.
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS14.
After use and before performing maintenance, unplug and disconnect the14.1
batterycharger(seesections6,7and8).
Use a dry cloth to wipe all battery corrosion and other dirt or oil from the14.2 terminals, cords, and the charger case.
Ensure that all of the charger components are in place and in good working14.3 condition, for example, the plastic boots on the battery clips.
Servicing does not require opening the unit, as there are no user-serviceable14.4 parts.
Allotherservicingshouldbeperformedbyqualiedservicepersonal.14.5
MOVING AND STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS15.
Store the charger unplugged, in an upright position. The cord will still conduct15.1 electricity until it is unplugged from the outlet.
Store inside, in a cool, dry place.15.2
Do not store the clips on the handle, clipped together, on or around metal, or15.3 clipped to cables.
If the charger is moved around the shop or transported to another location,15.4 take care to avoid/prevent damage to the cords, clips and charger. Failure to
do so could result in personal injury or property damage.

BEFORE RETURNING FOR REPAIRS17.
When a charging problem arises, make certain that the battery is capable17.1 of accepting a normal charge. Double check all connections, the AC outlet
for a full 120-volts, the charger clips for correct polarity and the quality of
the connections from the cables to the clips and from the clips to the battery
system. The clips must be clean.
When a battery is very cold, partially charged or sulfated, it will not draw17.2 the full rated amperes from the charger. It is both dangerous and damaging
to a battery to force higher amperage into it than it can effectively use in
recharging.
When an UNKNOWN OPERATING PROBLEM arises, please read the17.3 complete manual and call the customer service number for information that will
usually eliminate the need for return.
If the above solutions do not eliminate the problem or for information about troubleshooting,
call toll-free from anywhere in the U.S.A.
