SAFETY INFORMATION
Working in the vicinity of lead-acid battery is DANGEROUS due to EXPLOSIVE
GASES generated by the battery which can be ignited by a spark, cigarette or flame
and blow the battery apart, forcefully showering the area with battery pieces and acid.
To reduce the chance of exploding batteries follow instructions by manufacturers of
batteries as well as these instructions.
IN CASE OF ACCIDENT RINSE EYES WITH CLEAN WATER AT LEAST 5
MINUTES AND SEE A DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY. NEVER USE EYE DROPS OR
OTHER MEDICATION UNLESS DIRECTED BY A DOCTOR.
When working around lead-acid batteries wear eye protection. NEVER smoke, have
an open flame or sparks near battery. Have plenty of ventilation and keep your face
as far as possible from the battery. Undercharged lead-acid batteries will freeze
during cold weather. Never test or charge a frozen battery. Do not allow tools to drop
onto a battery. Do not lay tester on battery.
BATTERY LOAD TEST
This test evaluates the battery's ability to crank an engine. The tester draws current
from the battery while measuring its voltage level. The voltage level of a good battery
will remain relatively steady under load, but a defective battery will show a rapid loss
in voltage. Battery size (CCA rating) and temperature will affect test results - follow
instructions carefully.
