ELECTRICAL SAFETY (with respect to mains chargers)
WARNING! It is the user's responsibility to check the following:
You must check the AC adaptor to ensure that it is safe before using. You must inspect the power supply lead, plugs and all
electrical connections for wear and damage. You must ensure the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate
safety devices. An RCCB (Residual Current Circuit Breaker) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We recommend that
an RCd (Residual Current device) is used with all electrical products. It is particularly important to use an RCd with portable products
that plug into an electrical supply not protected by an RCCB. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician. You can obtain a Residual
Current device through your Sealey dealer. You must read and understand instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.3.1. The Electricity At Work Act 1989 requires all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, to be tested by a qualified
person, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year.
1.3.2. The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of the appliance and
the safety of the appliance operator. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
1.3.3. Ensure that the insulation on all cables and the product itself is safe before connecting to the mains power supply.
1.3.4. Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.
1.3.5. Regularly inspect power supply, leads, plugs for wear and damage and power connections to ensure that none is loose.
1.3.6. Check product voltage is the same as power supply to be used.

3.1.
Initial Charging Procedure.
3.1.1.
When first used, the RoadStart unit should be charged for a minimum of 72 hours. The RoadStart can be left plugged into the mains
indefinitely as the internal PCB has an automatic float charging circuit which will not allow overcharging.
3.2.
Recharging Using the Mains Adaptor.
When recharging, the Voltage Selector MUST be set to 12V.
3.2.1.
The RS125 has a charging jack that is inserted into the charge port, located on the upper rear panel (fig.2).
3.2.2.
Plug the charger into a 230V ac mains supply and turn on.
3.2.3.
Charging progress can be monitored by pressing the Test Button (fig.3) and checking the Battery Meter (fig.3). do not stop charging
until the battery meter indicates that the unit is fully charged.
3.2.4.
When not in use, the unit can be left connected to the mains charger as the internal PCB has an automatic float charging circuit
which will not allow overcharging.
