BEFORE USING YOUR BATTERY CHARGER

it is important to understand your charger's requirements. This section will tell you

about your charger's electrical requirements and how to prepare a battery for
charging.

ASSEMBLING YOUR CHARGER

Included with your battery charger are two

cord wrap posts for storage of the clamp
cables.

To install, align the three tabs to corre­
spond with the three receptacles and

push until you hear a snap.

Wrap clamp cord after unplugging the
power cord and store your charger in a
dry location.

PLUGGING IT IN

WARNING; Electrical Shock Hazard.

Be sure that the power cord fits properly
into the outlet. If not, have a qualified

technician install a proper outlet. Never
alter the AC cord or plug provided.

Improper connection can result in

electrical shock.

Your charger requires a 120V receptacle
installed according to all local codes and
ordinances.

USING AN EXTENSION CORD

The use of an extension cord is not

recommended. If you must use an

extension cord, please make sure

that you follow these guidelines:

• Make sure that the pins on charger's

power cord fit firmly into the extension

cord, and that the extension cord fits

firmly into the receptacle.

• Check that the extension cord is

properly wired and in good electrical
condition.

• Make sure that the wire size is large

enough for its length and for the AC

ampere rating as specified in the chart
