E. CHARGING BATTERIES
To avoid the risk of severe injury or death from electrical shock, fire or explosion
while charging:
1. Never connect charger to a 240 volt source. The main input voltage is 110 volts.
2. Never touch the charger after it is connected to an electrical outlet. This may cause
electrical shock.
• Never connect or disconnect charger from battery while there is power to
the charger.
3. Never use an extension cord. Use of an improper cord could damage the charger or
cause a fire or electrical shock.
4. A battery emits explosive hydrogen gas during charging. To reduce the risk of fire
or explosion:
• Make sure area is well vented. Never charge battery in a closed-in area.

terminals.

ies should be given a charge once per month.
