ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR THE BATTERY CHARGER
GENERAL SAFETY FOR BATTERIES
The battery chargers can be used to charge deep cycle lead acid
batteries. It can also be used as an auxiliary in the startup of engines.
These chargers have an overheating protection and protection against
current peaks. Safe and reliable when used.
The battery charger functions include current load selection. This
control is integrated in the charger front panel and is easy to use.
The charger is built with a belt to move the charger
To protect the safety of people and their property, when using the
battery charger, the following safety rules shall be followed:
1. Do not expose the charger to rain or snow.
2. Use of accessories not recommended or sold by the battery
manufacturer may cause fire, electric discharge or injuries.
3. When disconnecting the charger, hold and pull the plug, not the
cable. Failure to follow this instruction may damage both the
cable and the plug.
4. Unless strictly necessary, do not use extension cables. Using the
wrong extension cable may cause fire and electric shock.
If using an extension cable is necessary, make sure that:
a) The plug prongs in the extension cable are the same number, size
and shape than the charger plug;
b) The extension cable is wired correctly and in good electric
condition;
c) The cable gauge is big enough for the load ampere arc as
specified in the following table:

(1) It is safe to use only if the extensions have an over current protection
device.
(2) One of the conductors should be grounded. All conductors are the
same gauge including the one that is grounded.

5. Do not operate the charger if the cable or plug are damaged. Take
it to a Truper
Authorized Service Center.

6. Do not use the charger if it received a strong bump, it fell or is
damaged in any way. Take it to a Truper
Center.
7. Do not disassemble the charger. If you assemble it back it may
cause fire or electric shock. When needing to service or repair the
device, take it to a Truper
8. To reduce the risk of electric shock disconnect the charger from
the power supply before carrying out maintenance or cleaning
service. Turning OFF the controls DOES NOT reduce those risks.

A) WORKING NEAR AN ACID LEAD BATTERY IS DANGEROUS.
b) To reduce the risk of the battery exploiting, follow these instructions
and the manufacturer instructions of any equipment you will be
using near the battery. Check the caution measures in this product
and the motor.
10. Personal precaution:
a) There shall be second person close to the user to help, when
working with an acid lead battery.
b) Have handy plenty of fresh water and soap in case battery acid
make contact with your skin, clothes or eyes.
c) Use full eye protection and protective clothes. Avoid touching
your eyes when working near the battery.
d) In the event acid from the battery make contact with your skin or
clothes, wash immediately with water and soap. If acid gets into
your eyes, wash with plenty of cold water at least 10 minutes and
seek medical help immediately.
e) NEVER smoke or allow sparks or flames near the battery or the
motor.
f) Use extreme care when handling metal tools close the battery. If
dropped it can cause a spark or short circuit in the battery or any
other electric part and cause an explosion.
g) Remove all metal particles like rings, bracelets and watches when
working with an acid lead battery. An acid lead battery may cause
a short circuit with extremely high current capable or welding a
ring or any other metal article causing severe burns.
h) Use the charger only to recharge ACID LEAD batteries. It is not
designed to supply electricity to low tension systems different
from the motor starting application. Do not use the battery
charger to charge dry batteries used commonly with domestic
appliances. These types of batteries may explode and injure
people and damage property.
i) NEVER recharge a frozen battery.
PREPARING TO CHARGE
16 AWG
a) If you need to remove the battery from the vehicle towards the
14 AWG
charger, always remove the battery ground terminal. Verify all the
12 AWG
vehicle accessories are OFF no avoid causing an arc.
6 AWG
b) Verify the area around the battery is well ventilated when charging
the battery. You can spread the gas from the area, blow it away
using a piece of carboard or any nonmetallic material as a fan.
c) Clean the battery terminals. Be careful the corrosion is not making
contact with your eyes,
d) Add distilled water into each cell until the battery acid is reaching
the specified level indicated by the battery manufacturer. This
operation is helpful to purge excessive gas in the cells. Do not overfill.
For batteries built without caps in the cells, follow carefully the
recharge instructions indicated by the manufacturer.
e) Study all the preventive measures indicated by the battery
manufacturer, such as to remove or no remove the cells caps when
recharging and the recommended rates.
f) Determine the battery tension checking the automobile manual. If
the charger has an adjustable loading speed, charge the battery first
in the lowest speed.
RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GAS
WARNING
BATTERIES GENERATE EXPLOSIVE GASSES DURING THE
BATTERY NORMAL OPERATION. THEREFORE, IT IS VERY
IMPORTANT THAT BEFORE USING THE CHARGER, YOU READ
AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS TO THE VERY DETAIL.
