level surface. Make sure cords will easily reach
outlets on both machine and wall.
4. Connect the charger to D.C. outlet on the
machine first.
5. Connect the A.C. power cord to properly
grounded wall socket. NEVER MAKE THE A.C.
CONNECTION FIRST, HAZARDOUS SPARKS
MAY RESULT.
6. After the batteries are completely charged,
disconnect the charger from the A.C. wall
socket.
7. Once the charger is disconnected from the A.C.
wall socket it is safe to disconnect the charger
from the machine.
