PERSONAL PRECA
UTIONS
1.
Someone should be within range of your voice, or close enough
to come to your aid, when you work near a lead-acid battery.
2. Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid
contacts skin, clothing or eyes.
3. Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid
touching eyes while working near battery.
4.
If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with
soap and water. If acid enters eye, immediately flood with running
cold water for at least 10 minutes and get medical attention
immediately.
5. Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool onto
battery. It might spark or short-circuit the battery or other
electrical part that may cause an explosion.
6. Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces
and watches when working near 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.
7. Use this charger for charging LEAD-ACID batteries only. It is not
intended to supply power to a low voltage electrical system other
than in an automotive 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.
8. NEVER charge a frozen battery.
9. If it becomes necessary to remove the battery from the vehicle to
charge, always remove grounded terminal from battery first.
Make sure all accessories in the vehicle are off, so as not to
cause an arc.
10. Be sure area around battery is well ventilated while battery is
being charged. Gases can be forcefully blown away, by using a
piece of cardboard or other non-metallic material, such as a fan.
11. Add distilled water in each cell until battery acid reaches level
specified by battery manufacturer. This helps purge excessive
gas from cells. Do not overfill. For a battery without cell caps,
carefully follow manufacturer’s recharging instructions.
12. Study all battery manufacturer’s specific precautions such as
removing or not removing cell caps while charging and
recommended rates of charge.
MOUNTING CHARGER FOR CONTINUOUS USE
WARNING – Never alter ac line cord or plug provided. If it will not

shock.
1. Fasten the supplied mounting bracket to the charger with the
provided hardware as illustrated in Figure 1.
2. Slide the bottom flange of the mounting bracket under the
battery. The battery weight will hold the charger in place.
