14. DC CONNECTION PRECAUTIONS
a) Connect and disconnect DC output clips only after setting any charger switches to off position and
removing DC cord from supply. Never allow clips to touch each other, however should this happen no
damage will result to the charger circuit & the automatic charging programme will just reset to «start».
b) Attach clips to battery and chassis as indicated in 15(e), 15(f), and 16(b) through 16(d).
NOTE : This battery charger has an automatic safety feature that will prevent it from operating if the
battery has been inversely connected. Set charger switches to off position and/or remove DC cord from
the DC supply, disconnect the battery clips, then reconnect correctly according to the instructions
below.
15. FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS INSTALLED IN
VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR A BATTERY MAY CAUSE BATTERY
EXPLOSION. TO REDUCE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR BATTERY:
a) Position AC and DC cords so as to reduce risk of damage by hood, door or moving engine part.
b) Stay clear of fan-blades, belts,pulleys,and other parts that can cause injury to persons.
c) Check polarity of battery posts.POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery post usually has larger diameter than
NEGATIVE (NEG, N,–) post.
d) Determine which post of battery is grounded (connected) to the chassis. If negative post is grounded to
chassis (as in most vehicles), see (e). If positive post is grounded to the chassis, see (f).
e) For negative-grounded vehicle, connect POSITIVE (RED) clip from battery charger to POSITIVE (POS,
P, + ) ungrounded post of battery. Connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) clip to vehicle chassis or engine block
away from battery. Do not connect clip to carburetor, fuel lines, or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a
heavy gage metal part of the frame or engine block.
f) For positive-grounded vehicle, connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) clip from battery charger to NEGATIVE
(NEG. N , -) ungrounded post of battery. Connect POSITIVE (RED) clip to vehicle chassis or engine block
away from battery. Do not connect clip to carburetor, fuel lines, or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a
heavy gage metal part of the frame or engine block.
g) When disconnecting charger, turn switches to off, disconnect AC cord,remove clip from vehicle
chassis,and then remove clip from battery terminal.
h) See operating instructions for length of charge information.
16. FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS OUTSIDE VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY
MAY CAUSE BATTERY EXPLOSION. TO REDUCE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR BATTERY :
a) Check polarity of battery posts. POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery post usually has a larger diameter than
NEGATIVE (NEG,N, -) post.
b) This battery charger has an automatic safety feature that will prevent it from operating if the battery has
been inversely connected. The charger does not allow charge current unless a voltage of at least 1V is
sensed.
c) Connect POSITIVE (RED) charger clip to POSITIVE (POS, P, +) post of battery.
d) Connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) charger clip to NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) battery post of the battery.
e) Do not face battery when making final connection.
f) When disconnecting charger, always do so in reverse sequence of connecting procedure & break first
connection while as far away from battery as practical.
g) A marine (boat) battery must be removed & charged on shore. To charge it on board requires equipment
specially designed for marine use.
