BEFORE USING THE CHARGER, YOU READ THIS MANUAL
AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY.
b) To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow these
instructions and those published by battery manufacturer and
manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in vicinity
of battery. Review cautionary marking on these products and
on engine.

acid contacts skin, clothing, or eyes.
c) Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection.
Avoid touching eyes while working near battery.
