Only connect or disconnect the DC terminals when all controls on the char-
ger are set to the "Off" position and the mains cable has been unplugged
from the mains. Never allow the terminals to touch one another
Attach the terminals to the battery and chassis as indicated in points 5 and 6
of the next section and points 2 and 4 of the section after that
Attach the terminals to the battery poles and turn them to and fro several
times to ensure a good connection. This will prevent the terminals from slip-
ping off the battery poles and reduces the risk of sparks.
Arrange AC and DC cables in such a way that they cannot be damaged by
bonnets, doors or moving parts of engines
Keep clear of fan blades, belts, rollers and other parts that pose a risk of per-
sonal injury
Check the polarity of the battery terminals. The POSITIVE (POS, P, +) batte-
ry pole usually has a larger diameter than the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) pole
Determine which battery pole is connected to the chassis (earthed). If the
negative pole is connected to the chassis (as on most vehicles), go to point 5.
If the positive pole is connected to the chassis, go to point 6
On a negatively earthed vehicle, connect the POSITIVE (RED) charging ter-
minal to the POSITIVE (POS, P, +) unearthed pole of the battery. Clip the
NEGATIVE (BLACK) charging terminal to the chassis or engine block far
away from the battery. Do not attach the terminal to the carburettor, fuel
pipes or body panels, but rather to a solid metal part of the chassis or engine
block
On a positively earthed vehicle, connect the NEGATIVE (BLACK) charging
terminal to the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) unearthed pole of the battery. Clip the
POSITIVE (RED) charging terminal to the chassis or engine block far away
from the battery. Do not attach the terminal to the carburettor, fuel pipes or
body panels, but rather to a solid metal part of the chassis or engine block
When disconnecting the charger, switch the controls to the "Off" position,
unplug the mains cable, remove the charging terminal from the chassis and
then remove the charging terminal from the battery
For information about the required charging period, refer to the operating in-
structions
Check the polarity of the battery terminals. The POSITIVE (POS, P, +) batte-
ry pole usually has a larger diameter than the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) pole
Connect an insulated 6-gauge (AWG) battery cable, not less than 24 inches
(609.5 mm) long, to the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) battery pole
Connect the POSITIVE (RED) charging terminal to the POSITIVE (POS, P, +)
pole of the battery
Move yourself and the free end of the cable as far away as possible from the
battery, then connect the NEGATIVE (BLACK) charging terminal to the free
end of the cable
