14. DC CONNECTION - STANDARD PRECAUTIONS
a) Connect and disconnect DC output clips only after setting any charger switches to "off"
position and removing AC cord from electric outlet. Never allow clips to touch each other.
b) Attach clips to battery and chassis as indicated in 15(e), 15(f), and 16(b) through 16(d).
15. FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS INSTALLED IN VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR
BATTERY MAY CAUSE BATTERY EXPLOSION. TO REDUCE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR
BATTERY:
a) Position AC and DC cords away from vehicle to reduce risk of damage by hood, door, or
moving engine part.
b) Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys, and other parts that can cause injury to persons.
c) Check polarity of battery posts. POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery post usually has larger
diameter than NEGATIVE (NEG, N,–) post.
d) Determine which post of battery is grounded (connected) to the chassis. If negative post is
grounded to chassis (as in most vehicles), see (e). If positive post is grounded to the
chassis, see (f).
e) For negative-grounded vehicle, connect POSITIVE (RED) clip from battery charger to
POSITIVE (POS, P, +) ungrounded post of battery. Connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) clip to
vehicle chassis or engine block away from battery. Do not connect clip to carburettor, fuel
lines, or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a heavy gage metal part of the frame or
engine block.
f) For positive-grounded vehicle, connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) clip from battery charger to
NEGATIVE (NEG, N, –) ungrounded post of battery. Connect POSITIVE (RED) clip to
vehicle chassis or engine block away from battery. Do not connect clip to carburettor, fuel
lines, or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a heavy gage metal part of the frame or engine
block.
g) When disconnecting charger, turn switches to off, disconnect AC cord, remove clip from
vehicle chassis, and then remove clip from battery terminal.
h) See operating instructions for length of charge information.
16. FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS OUTSIDE VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR THE
BATTERY MAY CAUSE BATTERY EXPLOSION. TO REDUCE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR
BATTERY:
a) Check polarity of battery posts. POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery post usually has a larger
diameter than NEGATIVE (NEG, N, –) post.
b) Connect POSITIVE (RED) charger clip to POSITIVE (POS, P, +) post of battery.
c) Position yourself and free end of cable as far away from battery as possible – then connect
NEGATIVE (BLACK) charger clip to free end of cable.
d) Do not face battery when making fi nal connection.
e) Connect charger AC supply cord to electrical outlet and when disconnecting charger,
always do so in reverse sequence of connecting procedure and break fi rst connection while
standing as far away from battery as practical.
17. FOR CHARGING BATTERIES WITHIN A VEHICLE USING THE PERMANENT RING LEAD
CONNECTOR LEADS
a. Check to make sure that the permanent ring lead connectors are a suitable size to connect
to the battery screw clamp connections.
b. Connect the red ring lead to the positive (+) and the black ring lead to the negative (-)
battery connection. Ensure that the connection is not loose.
c. This battery lead can be permanently left in position on the battery and the end connector
can be positioned somewhere suitable that will allow for a quick and convenient connection
to the Oximiser 601 when required. The leads provided are supplied with a weatherproof
cap to help to ensure that the connections do not become corroded.
