4. AC POWER CORD CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS 4. The charger must be grounded to reduce the risk of electric shock. The charger is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. DANGER: NEVER ALTER CHARGER’S ORIGINAL AC CORD OR PLUG. IF THE PLUG DOES NOT FIT OUTLET, HAVE PROPER OUTLET INSTALLED BY A q UALIFIED ELECTRIC

4.3 An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of an improper extension cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock. If an extension cord must be used, make sure: a. That the pins on the plug of extension cord are the same number, size, and shape as those of the plug on charger; b. That the extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition; c. That the wire size is large enough for AC ampere rating of the charger as specified in the f

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

When disconnecting the charger, turn the switch to OFF (O), disconnect the AC cord, remove the clamp from the vehicle chassis, and then remove the clamp from the battery terminal. CAUTION: WHEN THE POSITIVE (+) POST OF THE VEHICLE BATTERY IS GROUNDED, DOUBLE-CHECK POLARITY. 8. CHARGING BATTERY OUTSIDE VEHICLE OR Eq UIPMENT–NOT CONNECTED TO ENGINE If necessary to remove the battery from the vehicle or equipment, always remove the grounded terminal from the battery first. WARNING: MAKE S

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 .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.

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 25°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: Char

2.2 BATTERY TYPE SWITCH Use this switch button to set the type of battery to be charged to one of the following: • 12V STANDARD: Use on typical lead-acid batteries (starting and deep cycle). This type of battery is usually used in boats, cars, trucks, and motorcycles. These batteries have vent caps and are often marked “low maintenance” or “maintenance-free”. • 12V AGM: Use on batteries marked AGM (starting or deep cycle). AGM batteries have sealed cases without vent caps. • 12V GE
