Charging/Recharging - Stanley Fatmax PPRH5DS Instruction Manual

SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPRESSORS
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE: Never leave the compressor unattended while in use.
WARNING: BURST HAZARD: BURSTING ARTICLES CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY.
• Carefully follow instructions on articles to be inflated.
• Never exceed the recommended pressure listed in instructions on articles to be inflated. If no pressure is given, contact article
manufacturer before inflating.
• Monitor the pressure at all times on the pressure gage.
• Never leave the compressor unattended while in use.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PROPERTY DAMAGE:
Do not operate compressor continuously for longer than approximately 10 minutes, depending on ambient temperatures, as it
may overheat.
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR JUMP STARTERS
WARNING: BURST HAZARD
Do not use the unit for charging dry-cell batteries that are commonly used with home appliances. These batteries may burst
and cause injury to persons and damage property. Use the unit for charging/boosting 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.
• Use of an attachment not supplied, recommended or sold by manufacturer specifically for use with this unit may result in a
risk of electrical shock and injury to persons.
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 the utmost importance that each time before using the jump-starter you read this manual
and follow instructions exactly.
• To reduce the risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and those published by the 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 the engine.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE:
• NEVER ATTEMPT TO JUMP-START OR CHARGE A FROZEN BATTERY.
• Vehicles that have on-board computerized systems may be damaged if vehicle battery is jump-started. Before jump-starting,
read the vehicle's owner's manual to confirm that external-starting assistance is suitable.
• When working with lead acid batteries, always make sure immediate assistance is available in case of accident or emergency.
• Always have protective eyewear when using this product: contact with battery acid may cause blindness and/or severe burns.
Be aware of first aid procedures in case of accidental contact with battery acid.
• Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin.
• Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of vehicle battery, engine or power station
• Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys, and other parts that can cause injury to persons.
• 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 similar metal object, to skin, causing a severe
burn.
• Do not wear vinyl clothing when jump-starting a vehicle when jump-starting a vehicle. Friction can cause dangerous static-
electrical sparks.
• Jump-start procedures should only be performed in a safe, dry, well-ventilated area.
• Always store battery clamps when not in use. Never touch battery clamps together. This can cause dangerous sparks, power
arcing and/or explosion.
• When using this unit close to the vehicle's battery and engine, stand the unit on a flat, stable surface, and be sure to keep all
clamps, cords, clothing and body parts away from moving vehicle parts.
• Never allow red and black clamps to touch each other or another common metal conductor — this could cause damage to the
unit and/or create a sparking/explosion hazard.
a) For negative-grounded systems, connect the positive (red) clamp to the positive ungrounded battery post and the negative
(black) clamp to the vehicle chassis or engine block away from the battery. Do not connect the clamp to the carburetor, fuel
lines or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a heavy gage metal part of the frame or engine block.
b) For positive-grounded systems, connect the negative (black) clamp to the negative ungrounded battery post and the
positive (red) clamp to the vehicle chassis or engine block away from the battery. Do not connect the clamp to the
carburetor, fuel lines or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a heavy gage metal part of the frame or engine block.
• If the connections to the battery's positive and negative terminals are incorrect, the reverse polarity indicator will light and the
unit will sound a continuous alarm until the clamps are disconnected. Disconnect clamps and reconnect to battery with correct
polarity.
• Always disconnect the negative (black) jumper cable first, followed by the positive (red) jumper cable, except for positive
grounded systems.
6
• Do not expose battery to fire or intense heat since it may explode. Before disposing of the battery, protect exposed terminals
with heavy-duty electrical tape to prevent shorting (shorting can result in injury or fire).
• Place this unit as far away from the battery as cables permit.
• Never allow battery acid to come in contact with this unit.
• Do not operate this unit in a closed area or restrict ventilation in any way.
• This system is designed to be used only on vehicles with a 12 volt DC battery system. Do not connect to a 6 volt or 24 volt
battery system.
• This system is not designed to be used as a replacement for a vehicular battery. Do not attempt to operate a vehicle that does
not have a battery installed.
• Excessive engine cranking can damage a vehicle's starter motor. If the engine fails to start after the recommended number of
attempts, discontinue jump-start procedures and look for other problems that may need to be corrected.
• Do not use this jump starter on a watercraft. It is not qualified for marine applications.
• Although this unit contains a non-spillable battery, it is recommended that unit be kept upright during storage, use and
recharging. To avoid possible damage that may shorten the unit's working life, protect it from direct sunlight, direct heat and/
or moisture.
FIRST AID
• Skin: If battery acid comes in contact with skin, rinse immediately with water, then wash thoroughly with soap and water. If
redness, pain, or irritation occurs, seek immediate medical attention.
• Eyes: If battery acid comes in contact with eyes, flush eyes immediately, for a minimum of 15 minutes and seek immediate
medical attention.
• LCD liquid crystal display: If liquid crystal comes in contact with your skin: Wash area off completely with plenty of water.
Remove contaminated clothing. If liquid crystal gets into your eye: Flush the affected eye with clean water and then seek
medical attention. If liquid crystal is swallowed: Flush your mouth thoroughly with water. Drink large quantities of water and
induce vomiting. Then seek medical attention.

INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on purchasing your new Stanley FatMax
®
follow the instructions carefully before using this unit.

CHARGING/RECHARGING

Lead-acid batteries require routine maintenance to ensure a full charge and long battery life. All batteries lose energy from
self-discharge over time and more rapidly at higher temperatures. Therefore, batteries need periodic charging to replace energy
lost through self-discharge. When the unit is not in frequent use, manufacturer recommends the battery be recharged at least
every 30 days.
IMPORTANT: If you attempt to use the unit when the unit's battery charge level is too low, the unit will automatically shut
down. Recharge the unit with all other functions turned off as soon as possible.
WARNING: Never attempt to use the AC and DC charging methods at the same time.
Notes:
This unit is delivered in a partially charged state – you must fully charge it before using it for the first time. Initial AC charge should be for 40 hours.
Recharging battery after each use will prolong battery life; frequent heavy discharges between recharges and/or overcharging will reduce battery life.
Make sure all other unit functions are turned off during recharging, as this can slow the recharging process.
CAUTION: RISK OF PROPERTY DAMAGE: Failure to keep the battery charged will cause permanent damage and result in
poor jump starting performance.
Charging/Recharging Using the 120 Volt AC Charger and a Standard Household Extension Cord (not
included)
1. Lift the cover built-in 120 volt AC charger located on the lower left front of the unit (refer to the Features section to locate).
Connect an extension cord to the unit. Plug the other end of the cord into a standard 120-volt AC wall outlet. When the
unit is properly connected to an AC power source, the LCD screen will display the following (the screen will be backlit):
