Save these instructions. This manual contains important safety and operating instructions for the

1622,1626, and 1627 Industrial Battery Chargers. Read this information in its entirety before using

your charger. For technical support, please contact the manufacturer or distributor of your vehicle or

machine, as their version of this charger may require unique operating instructions.

WARNING

Only use the charger with a charging profile that is appropriate to the specific battery type. Other

usage may cause personal injury and damage. Lead acid batteries may generate explosive hydrogen

gas during normal charging. Keep sparks, flames, and smoking materials away from batteries. Do not

operate charger in an enclosed area or an area with restricted ventilation. Never charge a frozen or

non-rechargeable battery. Observe all battery manufacturers' precautions (e.g. maximum charge rates

and if cell caps should be removed while charging).

DANGER

There is risk of electric shock. Connect the charger power cord to an AC outlet that has been properly

installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. A grounded AC outlet is

required to reduce the risk of electric shock-do not use ground adapters or modify the plug. Do not

touch uninsulated portions of the output connector or uninsulated battery terminals. Disconnect the

AC supply before making or breaking the connections to the battery. Do not open or disassemble

the charger. Do not operate the charger if the AC supply cord or DC output cord is damaged or if the

charger has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or is damaged in any way. Refer all repair work to

the manufacturer, or qualified personnel. The charger is not intended for use by individuals (including

children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities. Nor should individuals whor lack

experience and/or knowledge of electrical systems and battery charging use the charger, unless they

have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the charger by a person responsible for

their safety. Supervise children to ensure they do not play with the charger.
