NOTES ON SAFETY
- The battery terminal not connected to the chassis has to be
connected first. The other connection is to be made to the
chassis, remote from the battery and fuel line. The battery
charger is then to be connected to the supply mains.
After charging, disconnect the battery charger from the
supply mains. Then remove the chassis connection and the
battery connection.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS REGARDING BATTERIES
- WARNING: Risk of explosive gas mixtures. Working in the
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 battery charger, you read this manual and
follow the instructions exactly.
- Thanks to check that your batteries can be recharged with
this charger. To know this, refer to the manufacturer's
instruction manual of the battery.
- Make sure that the initial charging rate does not exceed the
battery manufacturer's requirement.
- Do not put batteries in use during the charge! Do not start
the engine during the charge.
- Non-rechargeable batteries cannot be recharged.
- Never attempt to charge a frozen battery!
- Wear complete eye protection and suitable clothing to give
protection from contact with battery fluid. Avoid touching the
eyes while working with a battery. Acid, acid particles or
corrosion may get into the eyes.
- Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets,
necklaces and watches when working with a lead-acid
battery. Be extra cautious to reduce the risk of dropping a
metal object onto the battery. This might cause sparks or
short-circuit the battery or other electrical part, and lead to an
explosion or severe burn.
- In wrong circumstances, some fluid can be ejected from the
battery. Battery fluid can cause irritations and/or burns. Avoid
any contact with it. In case of accidental contact, rinse with
water. If fluid enters your eye, immediately rinse the eye with
plenty of fresh water and contact a doctor.
