Use charger for charging a LEAD-ACID battery only. It is not intended to supply power to a low voltage electrical system other than in a starter-mo- tor application.

CHARGER LOCATION Locate charger as far away from battery as DC cables permit. Never place charger directly above battery being charged; gases from bat- tery will corrode and damage charger. Never allow battery acid to drip on charger when reading electrolyte spe- cific gravity or filling battery. - Page 6 When disconnecting charger, turn switches to off, disconnect AC cord, remove clip from vehicle chassis, and then remove clip from battery termi- nal. See OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS for length of charge information. FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS OUTSIDE VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY MAY CAUSE BATTERY EXPLOSION.

7. MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS 11.1 Before performing maintenance, unplug and disconnect battery charger (see sections 6.7 and 7.6). 11.2 After use, use a dry cloth to wipe all battery corrosion and other dirt or oil from terminals, cords, and the charger case. - Page 9 When a battery is very cold, partially charged, or sulfated, it will not draw full rated amperes from charger. It is both dangerous and damaging to a battery to force a higher amperage into it than it can effectively use in recharging.
