DANGER! BE AWARE, LEAD-ACID BATTERIES GENERATE EXPLOSIVE GASES DURING NORMAL BATTERY OPERATION. FOR THIS REASON, IT IS
VERY IMPORTANT TO READ AND FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY, EACH TIME YOU USE THE CHARGING EQUIPMENT.
Follow these instructions and those published by the battery and vehicle manufacturers and the manufacturer of any equipment you
intend to use in the vicinity of the battery. Remember to review warning marks on all products and on engines.
1.4.
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS
! Ensure there is another person within hearing range of your voice, or close enough
to come to your aid, should a problem arise when working near a lead-acid battery.
! Wear safety eye protection and protective clothing. Avoid touching eyes while working near battery.
! Have fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing, or eyes.
! Wash immediately with soap and water if battery acid contacts skin or clothing. If acid enters eye, flush eye immediately with cool, clean
running water for at least 15 minutes and seek immediate medical attention.
! Remove personal metallic items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches. A lead-acid battery can produce a short-circuit current
high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal, which may cause severe burns.
! Ensure hands, clothing (especially belts) are clear of fan blades and other moving or hot parts of engine, remove ties and contain long hair.
% DO NOT smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of battery or engine.
1.5.
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 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 non-recommended items may be dangerous and will invalidate your warranty.
! Use the starter/charger in the horizontal position only and ensure it is placed on a stable surface which will adequately support the weight.
! 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 you can see the battery and moving parts of the engine clearly.
! Ensure the voltage on the starter/charger 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 para. 1.3).
! The cables may become hot with excessive use. If so, allow a few minutes for them to cool down before attempting to re-use.
! If the starter/charger receives a sharp knock or blow the unit 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 an identical fuse type and rating.
! When not in use, store the starter/charger carefully in a safe, dry, childproof location.

3.1.
PREPARATION It is important to correctly prepare for charging - follow Section 1 safety requirements and, especially when
charging battery in situ, any vehicle manufacturer's instructions. Check that capacity of battery is compatible with charger output.
3.1.1. Check battery to ensure the NEGATIVE & POSITIVE 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 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 use of a hydrometer which measures the specific density of the electrolyte
The following information indicates kg/l at 20
