1.1. eLectrIcaL saFetY
 WarNINg! It is the responsibility of the owner and the operator to read, understand and comply with the following: You must check all
electrical products, before use, to ensure that they are safe. You must inspect power cables, plugs, sockets and any other connectors
for wear or damage. You must ensure that the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety devices. A
residual current circuit Breaker (rccB) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend that a residual
current Device (rcD) is used. It is particularly important to use an rcD with portable products that are plugged into a supply which is
not protected by an rccB. If in any doubt consult a qualified electrician. You may obtain a residual current Device by contacting your
sealey dealer.
You must also read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.1.1. the electricity at Work act 1989 requires that all portable electrical appliances, if used on business
premises, are tested by a qualified electrician, using a Portable Appliance tester (PAt), at least
once a year.
1.1.2. the health & safety at Work act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe
condition of those appliances and the safety of the appliance operators.
If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
1.1.3. Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the
power supply. see 1.1.1. and 1.1.2. and use a Portable Appliance tester.
1.1.4. Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.
1.1.5. regularly inspect power supply leads and plugs for wear and damage and power connections to ensure
that none is loose or damaged.
1.1.6. Important: Ensure that the voltage marked on the appliance matches the power supply to be used and
that the plug is fitted with the correct fuse - see fuse rating at right.
1.1.7. DO NOt pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.
1.1.8. DO NOt pull the plug from the socket by the cable.
1.1.9. DO NOt use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors. Immediately have any faulty
item repaired or replaced by a qualified electrician.
1.1.10. this product requires an electrical supply in excess of 13 amps, and no plug is fitted. You must
therefore contact a qualified electrician to ensure that a 30 amp supply is available. We recommend
that you discuss the installation of a industrial round pin plug and socket with your electrician.
Ensure that the unit is correctly earthed via a three-pin plug, as shown.
a) connect the green/yellow earth wire to the earth terminal .
b) connect the brown live wire to live terminal ‘L’.
c) connect the blue neutral wire to the neutral terminal, ‘N’ or unmarked.
d) after wiring, check that there are no bare wires, that all wires have been correctly connected,
that the external insulation extends beyond the cable restraint and that the restraint is tight.
1.1.11. If an extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before connection. A reel with an rcD
fitted is preferred since any appliance plugged into it will be protected. the cable core section is
important and should be at least 1.5mm², but to be absolutely sure that the capacity of the reel is
suitable for this product and for others which may be used in the other output sockets, we recommend
the use of 2.5mm² section cable.
1.1.12 DO NOt fit a 13 amp plug to either of these starter/chargers as these units will draw more than 13amps from the mains supply when
being used to crank larger engines.

1.2. persONaL precautIONs
 Ensure there is another person within hearing range of your voice, or close enough
to come to your aid, should a problem arise when working near a lead-acid battery.
 Wear safety eye protection and protective clothing. Avoid touching eyes while working near battery.
 Have fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing, or eyes.
 Wash immediately with soap and water if battery acid contacts skin or clothing. If acid enters eye, flush eye immediately with cool,
clean running water for at least 15 minutes and seek immediate medical attention.
 remove personal metallic items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches. A lead-acid battery can produce a short-circuit
current high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal, which may cause severe burns.
 Ensure hands, clothing (especially belts) are clear of fan blades and other moving or hot parts of engine, remove ties and contain long
hair.
 Do not smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of battery or engine.
DANGER! BE AWARE, LEAD-ACID BATTERIES GENERATE EXPLOSIVE GASES DURING NORMAL BATTERY OPERATION. FOR THIS
REASON, IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO READ AND FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY, EACH TIME YOU USE THE CHARGING
EQUIPMENT.
Follow these instructions and those published by the battery and vehicle manufacturers and the manufacturer of any equipment
you intend to use in the vicinity of the battery. Remember to review warning marks on all products and on engines.
