A.
GENERAL BATTERY SAFETY
1.
Before you use your battery charger, be sure to read all in-
structions and cautions printed on:
• Battery Charger
• Battery
• Vehicle or unit using battery
2.
Use battery charger on LEAD-ACID type rechargeable bat-
teries only, such as used in automobiles, trucks, tractors,
airplanes, vans, RV's, trolling motors, etc. Charger is not
intended to supply power to low-voltage electrical system
other than in an automotive application.
WARNING:
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.
3.
Use only attachments recommended or sold by manufac-
turer. Use of non-recommended attachments may result in
fire, electric shock, or injury.
4.
When disconnecting the battery charger, pull by the plug,
not by the cord. Pulling on the cord may cause damage to
cord or plug.
5.
Locate battery charger power cord so it cannot be stepped
on, tripped over, or subjected to damage or stress.
6.
Do not operate charger with damaged cord or plug. Have
cord replaced immediately.
7.
Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow, been
dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way. Take it to a quali-
fied professional for inspection and repair.
8.
Do not disassemble charger. Take it to a qualified profes-
sional when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassem-
bly may result in electric shock or fire.
9.
To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger from outlet
before attempting any maintenance or cleaning.
10. Do not use an extension cord unless absolutely necessary.
Use of an improper extension cord could result in fire or
electric shock. If an extension cord must be used, make
sure that:
• Pins on plug of extension cord are the same number, size,
and shape as those of plug on charger.
• Extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical
condition.
• Wire size is large enough for AC ampere rating of charger,
as specified below:

erate in a closed-in or restricted area without adequate ven-
tilation.
WARNING:
Risk of explosive gas.
12. Locate charger as far away from battery as DC charger
cables permit.
13. Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
14.
NEVER
charge a frozen battery. If battery fluid (electrolyte)
is frozen, bring into a warm area to thaw before charging.
15.
NEVER
allow battery acid to drip on charger when reading
specific gravity or filling battery.
16.
NEVER
set a battery on top of charger.
17.

is energized.

Read Rules for Safe Operation and Instructions Carefully
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 each time before using your charger, you
read this manual and follow the instructions exactly.
