warnings
warnings
•
Read all instructions, warnings, and
cautions printed on the battery charger,
battery and vehicle or equipment using
battery.
DO NOT expose charger to rain or snow.
•
Use of an attachment not recommended or
•
sold by the battery charger manufacturer
may result in a risk of fire, electric shock,
or injury to persons.
•
To reduce risk of damage to electric plug
and cord, pull by plug rather than cord
when disconnecting charger.
•
An extension cord should not be used
unless absolutely necesssary.
Use of an improper extension cord could
result in a risk of fire and electric shock. If
an extention cord must be used, make
sure:
The pins on plug of extension cord
•
are the same number, size, and
shape as those of plug on charger.
The extension cord is properly wired
•
and in good electrical condition.
The wire size is larger enough for the
•
AC ampere rating of the charger, as
specified in the chart on the following
page.
DO NOT operate charger with damaged cord
•
or plug—replace the cord or plug immediately.
DO NOT operate charger if it has received a
•
sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise
damaged in any way; take it to a qualified
serviceman.
DO NOT disassemble the charger. Take it to a
•
qualified service professional if service or
repair is required. Incorrect assembly may
result in fire or electric shock.
•
To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug
charger from outlet before attempting any
maintenance or cleaning. Turning off controls
will not reduce this risk.
WARNING—RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES.
WORKING IN THE VICINITY OF A
•
LEAD-ACID BATTERY IS DANGEROUS.
BATTERIES GENERATE EXPLOSIVE
GASES DURING NORMAL BATTERY
OPERATION. FOR THIS REASON, IT IS OF
UTMOST IMPORTANCE THAT YOU
FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS EACH
TIME YOU USE THE CHARGER.
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 the vicinity of the
battery. Review cautionary markings on
these products and on engine.
PERSONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
•
Consider having someone close by to come
to your aid when you work near a lead-acid
battery.
Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby
•
in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing,
or eyes.
Wear complete eye protection and clothing
•
protection. Avoid touching eyes while
working near battery.
If battery acid contacts skin or clothing,
•
wash immediately with soap and water. If
acid enters eye, immediately flood eye with
running cold water for at least 10 minutes
and get medical attention immmediately.
NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in
•
vicinity of battery or engine.
•
Take extra precautions to avoid dropping a
metal tool onto the battery. It may spark or
create a short circuit that can cause an
explosion.
•
Remove personal metal items such as
rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches
when working with a lead-acid battery. A
lead-acid battery can produce a short-
circuit current high enough to weld a ring
or the like to metal, causing a severe burn.
Use charger for charging a lead-acid
•
battery only. It is not intended to supply
power to a low voltage electrical system
other than in a starter-motor application.
Do not use battery charger for charging
dry-cell batteries that are commonly used
with home appliances. These batteries may
burst and cause injury to persons and
damage to property.
NEVER charge a frozen battery.

improper extension cord could result in a
risk of fire and electric shock. If an
extension cord must be used, make sure:
The pins on plug of extension cord are the
•
same number, size, and shape as those of
plug on charger.
•
The extension cord is properly wired and in
good electrical condition.
•
The wire size is large enough for AC
ampere rating of charger as specified in the
chart below:
MINIMUM RECOMMENDED EXTENSION CORD
