PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS

6. To prevent electric shock - Dispose of battery charger
if cord becomes defective.
7. Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow,
been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way; take
it to a qualified service center.
8. Do not disassemble charger; take it to a qualified
service center when service or repair is required.
Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric
shock or fire.
9. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug the charger
from outlet before attempting any maintenance or
cleaning. Turning off controls will not reduce this risk.
10. Monitor battery charger daily when using it to maintain
battery for extended periods.
11. WARNING – RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES.
a. Working in vicinity of a lead-acid battery is
dangerous. Batteries generate explosive gases
during normal battery operation. For this reason, it
is of utmost importance that each time before using
your charger, you read this manual and follow the
instructions exactly.
b. To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow these
instructions and those published by the battery
manufacturer and the manufacturer of any
12
equipment you intend to use in the vicinity of the
battery. Review cautionary markings on these
products and in the engine compartment.
6. Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal
tool onto battery. It might spark or short-circuit battery
or other electrical part that may cause explosion.
7. Remove personal metal items such as rings,
bracelets, necklaces, and watches when working with
a lead-acid battery. A lead-acid battery can produce
a short-circuit current high enough to weld a ring or
other jewelry to metal, causing a severe burn.
8. Use charger for charging LEAD-ACID batteries only.
It is not intended to supply power to a low voltage
electrical system other than in a starter-motor
application. Do not use battery charger for charging
dry-cell batteries that are commonly used with home
appliances. These batteries may burst and cause
injury to persons and damage to property.
9. NEVER charge a frozen battery.
