GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
! Familiarise yourself with the application, limitations and potential hazards relating to starter/chargers. Also refer to the vehicle manufacturer’s
hand book. IF IN ANY DOUBT CONSULT AN ELECTRICIAN.
! Ensure that the starter/charger is in good order and condition before use. If in any doubt do not use the unit and contact an electrician.
! Only use recommended attachments and parts. To use unauthorised items may be dangerous and will invalidate your warranty.
! Use the starter/charger in the normal upright position only.
! Check the ‘Off’ LED to ensure the starter/charger is registering ‘Off’ before handling the power clamps.
! Ensure the starter/charger is ‘Off’ before attaching/detaching the power clamps to/from the battery.
! Keep tools and other items away from the engine and ensure that you can see the battery and moving parts of the engine clearly.
! Ensure that the starter/charger output voltage is set to the same voltage as the battery.
! If battery has caps to access the battery fluid, remove the caps and check the fluid level before connecting the power clamps. If necessary top-up
the battery with distilled water by referring to the battery manufacturer’s instructions (apply the personal safety precautions described in 1.3).
! The cables may become hot with excessive use. If so, allow a few minutes for them to cool down before using again.
! If the starter/charger receives a sharp knock or blow it must be checked by a qualified service agent before using.
! If the battery terminals are corroded or dirty clean them before attaching the power clamps.
! Keep children and unauthorised persons away from the work area.
% DO NOT dis-assemble the starter/charger for any reason. The starter/charger must only be checked by qualified service personnel.
% DO NOT try to charge a non-rechargeable battery.
% DO NOT try to start engine, or to charge battery, if battery is frozen.
F WARNING! To prevent the risk of sparking, short circuit and possible explosion DO NOT drop metal tools in the battery area, or allow them
to touch the battery terminals.
% DO NOT allow power clamps to touch each other or to make contact with any metallic parts of the vehicle.
% DO NOT cross connect power leads from starter/charger to battery. Ensure positive (+) (RED) is to positive and negative (-) BLACK is to negative.
If symbols cannot be distinguished, remember that the negative terminal is the one directly connected to the vehicle bodywork.
% DO NOT pull the cables or clamps from the battery terminals and DO NOT remove power clamps while the starter/charger is ‘On’.
% DO NOT use the starter/charger outdoors, or in damp or wet locations and DO NOT operate within the vicinity of flammable liquids or gases.
% DO NOT use starter/charger inside vehicle or inside engine compartment. Ensure there is sufficient ventilation and do not cover or obstruct
starter/charger ventilation louvres.
% DO NOT use this product to perform a task for which it is not designed.
F WARNING! Simultaneous charging of batteries is possible but must be done with great caution by a qualified person. Contact your
Sealey dealer for information and accessories. DO NOT charge in series two batteries of differing type, capacity, or levels of discharge.
F WARNING! If a fuse blows, ensure it is replaced with a fuse of identical type and rating.
! When not in use, store the starter/charger carefully in a safe, dry, childproof location.

3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
F
WARNING! Ensure that you read and understand all safety instructions before attempting to
p
use the charger.
3.1.
PREPARATION
It is important to correctly prepare for charging ensuring that you follow Section 1 safety requirements carefully. Check that the capacity
of the battery is compatible with charger output. Follow any vehicle manufacturer’s instructions regarding battery charging. Note special
instructions for the charging of non-removable vehicle batteries.
3.1.1. Check battery to ensure that the POSITIVE and NEGATIVE terminals are clearly identifiable before removing the battery from the vehicle.
3.1.2. Disconnect and remove the battery from the vehicle and place in an appropriate safe area ready for charging.
3.1.3. Remove the battery electrolyte cover or caps to allow the gases produced by charging to escape.
3.1.4. Check that the electrolyte fluid level in the battery is above the plates. If not, add distilled water to cover them by 5-10mm.
DO NOT touch the battery fluid as it is corrosive.
3.1.5. The correct charging status of the battery may be determined by using a hydrometer which will measure the specific density of the electrolyte.
The following figures (kg/ltr) apply at 20
F
WARNING! Be cautious and vigilant as the electrolyte is highly corrosive sulphuric acid.

CONNECTING CHARGER TO BATTERY
3.2.1. Ensure that the battery charger is unplugged from the mains power supply before connecting power leads to the battery.
3.2.2. For chargers with dual voltage output, set the charger voltage to match that of the battery (i.e. 12 or 24 volts) by connecting the positive
(red) clamp lead to either the 12 volt + output terminal or the 24 volt + output terminal as appropriate.
3.2.3. Check the charger clamps and battery terminals to ensure that they are clean and free from oxidation.
3.2.4. Connect the charger POSITIVE (Red or +) lead to the POSITIVE (+) terminal of the battery and the NEGATIVE (Black or -) lead to
the NEGATIVE (-) terminal of the battery.
