6. DC CONNECTION PRECAUTIONS 6. All switches should be set in OFF (O) position and the AC cord should be disconnected from the electrical outlet before you connect and disconnect the charger clamps. Never allow the clamps to touch each other. 6.2 Attach clamps to battery posts and twist or rock back and forth several times to make a good connection. This will tend to prevent the clamps from slipping off terminals, avoid dangerous sparking, and assure safer and more efficient charging. Keep

9. ELECTRICAL CONDITION OF BATTERY 9.1 The state of charge of refillable-top batteries can be checked by using a hydrometer. A hydrometer is a bulb-type syringe which is used to extract a small quantity of the electrolyte from each battery cell. Types are calibrated in terms of specific gravity (a common scale being 1.120 to 1.265) or the type which uses four colored balls to indicate the state of charge. A float in the hydrometer barrel indicates the specific gravity of the electrolyte. Th

10. BATTERY CHARGING 10.1 This charger adjusts the charging time in order to charge the battery completely, efficiently and safely. However, this section includes guidelines that can be used to estimate charging times. 0.2 The amount of time required to fully charge a weak battery is dependant on a number of factors. In addition to the degree of discharge, these factors include the type and rated capacity, temperature, age of the battery, and amperage rating of the charger. At 70°F (22°C)

0.5 CAUTION - Do not leave Manual chargers unattended. 0.6 CAUTION: If at any time the battery gets hot (above 125°F (52°C)) or acid comes out of vent caps, STOP charging. 0.7 To maximize battery life - Let automatic chargers complete charging. 11. MULTIPLE BATTERY CHARGING Batteries of the same voltage may be connected in parallel for maintenance charging. Charge time increases in proportion to the number of batteries. Rate of charge decreases in the same proportion. Example: Chargi

2.2 CIRCUIT BREAKER This battery charger is equipped with a self-resetting circuit breaker. This device protects the charger from temporary overloads. In the event of an overload, the circuit breaker will trip open and after a short cooling off period will reset automatically. This process is known as cycling and can be recognized by an audible clicking sound. NOTE: Clicking sound is normal. Wait until charger automatically resets itself. CAUTION: Persistent clicking (more than 30 minu
