11. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 11.1 TIMER The main function of the timer is to prevent over charging while allowing a battery time to obtain a satisfactory charge. To properly set the timer you must know the size of the battery in ampere hours or reserve capacity in minutes and the state of charge. Often the state of charge is not known, this is one reason why the timer was limited to 2.25 hours. With the aid of a battery load tester the state of charge can be obtained within a few seconds. Fo

11.4 AMMETER The Ammeter indicates the amount of current measured in amperes that is being drawn by the battery. For example, in the 40 amp charge rate a typical discharged battery will initially draw approximately 40 amps. As the battery continues to charge, current will taper to 15 to 20 amps at full charge. The Start area of the meter indicates a high rate of current be- ing drawn from the charger. When cranking an engine, the starter motor draws upwards to 200-300 amps. The meter needle

IMPORTANT: Using the ENGINE START feature WITHOUT a battery installed in the vehicle could cause damage to the vehicle’s electrical system. If the engine does turn over, but never starts, there is not a problem with the starting system; there is a problem somewhere else with the vehicle. STOP cranking the engine until the other problem has been diagnosed and corrected. 13.
