1.2 GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
•
Read this entire manual and cautionary markings on the PosiCharge™
ProCore cabinet.
•
Make sure you also read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS below.
•
Installing or servicing this charger must be done by qualified personnel
ONLY.
1.2.1 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
•
Ground the unit properly with a grounding conductor of a size equal to or
larger than that recommended by local electrical codes or the installation
section of this manual.
•
Do not touch the uninsulated portion of the output battery connector or an
uninsulated battery terminal.
•
Only qualified service personnel may remove the panels on the ProCore.
There are no user serviceable parts inside. Refer all servicing to qualified
service personnel. Opening the system or attempted installation or repair by
other than qualified service personnel voids the warranty.
•
Disconnect battery charger from input power and battery connections
before servicing. Lockout/Tagout input power according to OSHA 29 CFR
1910.147.
•
Do not expose to rain or perform installation/service/repair work when in
standing water.
•
Stop a charge by disconnecting the output cable connector or by pressing
the stop button on the front panel. The ProCore automatically stops a
charge event to prevent arcing or burning of the charger connections in the
event of a hot disconnect.
•
The charging cables must be sized for the full rated current of the ProCore
and inspected frequently for wear, cuts and abrasion. Do not use worn,
damaged, undersized, or poorly spliced cable.
•
The ProCore charging connector is subject to normal wear and tear and
may be damaged by misuse or abuse. Frequently inspect the connector for
cracking, pitting of contacts, fraying of wires or signs of connector fatigue.
Replace damaged charging connectors immediately
ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL
Touching live electrical parts can cause fatal shocks or
severe burns. The battery terminals are always electrically
live, and the output circuit is live whenever the battery
is connected or being charged. The input power circuitry
and internal circuits are live whenever input power is on.
An incorrectly installed or improperly grounded charger
is a hazard.
