Portable Charger - Bad Boy Ambush iS Owner's Manual

Read all of SAFETY and this section before attempting any procedure. Pay particular attention to Notices, Cautions, Warnings and Dangers.
Hydrogen gas is generated as a natural part of the lead acid battery charging process. A 4% con-
centration of hydrogen gas is explosive and could cause severe injury or death. Charging must
take place in an area that is adequately ventilated (minimum of 5 air exchanges per hour).
To reduce the chance of battery explosion that could result in severe injury or death, never smoke
around or charge batteries in an area that has open flame or electrical equipment that could cause
an electrical arc.
Hydrogen gas is generated in the charging cycle of batteries and is explosive in concentrations as low as 4%.
Because hydrogen gas is lighter than air, it will collect in the ceiling of buildings necessitating proper ventilation.
Five air exchanges per hour is considered the minimum requirement.
Never charge a vehicle in an area that is subject to flame or spark. Pay particular attention to natural gas or propane
water heaters and furnaces.

PORTABLE CHARGER

Use charger ONLY on 72 volt battery systems. Other usage may cause personal injury and dam-
age. Lead acid batteries may generate explosive hydrogen gas during normal operation. Keep
sparks, flames, and smoking materials away from batteries. Provide adequate ventilation during
charging. Never charge a frozen battery. Study all battery manufacturers' specific precautions
such as recommended rates of charge and removing or not removing cell caps while charging.
Risk of electric shock. Connect charger power cord to an outlet that has been properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. A grounded out-
let is required to reduce risk of electric shock – do not use ground adapters or modify plug.
Do not touch uninsulated portion of output connector or uninsulated battery
Disconnect the DC supply before making or breaking the connections to the battery while
charging. Do not open or disassemble charger. Do not operate charger if the AC supply
cord is damaged or if the charger has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise
damaged in any way – refer all repair work to qualified personnel. Not for use by children.
The portable charger is shipped with the vehicle. Prior to vehicle or charger operation, the charger must be removed
from the vehicle. A dedicated circuit is required for the charger. Refer to the charger manual for appropriate circuit
protection. For optimum performance and shortest charge times, place the charger in an area with adequate ventila-
tion and relatively free of dirt, mud, or dust. If the charger is operated in an outdoor location, rain and sun protection
must be provided. The charger may get hot during operation and must be placed such that risk of contact by people is
reduced.
