Important Safety Instructions
4. NEVER charge a frozen, damaged or leaking battery.
5. Study all battery manufacturer's specific precautions such as removing or not removing cell caps while
charging and recommended rates of charge.
6. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by ProMariner may result in a risk of fire, electric
shock, or injury to persons.
7. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting
charger.
8. Extension cords should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of an improper extension cord
could result in a risk of fire and electric shock. If an extension cord must be used make sure:
a. Pins on the plug of the extension cord are the same number, size and shape as those on the plug of
the charger.
b Use only a properly wired extension cord in good electrical condition.
c. Use an industrial grade / heavy duty UL or CSA approved and grounded extension cord. Check
extension cord before use for damage, bent prongs, and cuts. Replace if damaged. Always make
your extension cord connection on the charger side first. After connecting the extension cord to
the charger proceed to plug the extension cord into a nearby 120/230 VAC GFCI protected
(Ground Fault Circuit Interrupt) outlet. Below are manufacturer recommendations for the right
size UL or CSA Approved grounded extension cord.
i. Up to 50 feet in length use a 3 conductor 18 AWG extension cord.
ii 50 to 100 feet in length use a 3 conductor 16 AWG extension cord.
iii. 100 to 150 feet in length use a 3 conductor 14 AWG extension cord.
9. Do not operate charger if any protective AC and DC cable insulation, charging clamps, DC fuse holders
and/or maintainer ring terminals have been damaged or compromised. Return the charger for service
and repair to ProMariner immediately.
10. Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow, direct hit of force, been dropped or otherwise
damaged in any way. Return the charger for service and repair to ProMariner immediately.
11. Do not disassemble charger. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire. If service
or repair is required please call ProMariner customer service at +1-800-824-0524 between 8:30am-
