ELECTRICAL CONNECTION Connect the three core mains lead to a suitable industrial supply isolator, or heavy duty plug. These chargers must be connected to a supply having a rated capacity of greater than 13 Amps. WARNING: A 13 Amp (BS1363) plug is not suitable.
PROCEDURE FOR NORMAL CHARGING NOTE: All references in brackets refer to Fig. 1 1) Before charging or boosting, ensure that the cells are filled with electrolyte to the correct level by adding distilled water where necessary. 2) Where appropriate we recommend that the non-earthed lead on the battery is disconnected prior to charging. It is possible that damage may occur to any electronically controlled system fitted to the vehicle such as engine management, anti-theft alarm, alternator etc.
Notes on charging procedure. * A complete charge is best done slowly in order to protect your battery We recommend the charging ratebe no more than 10% of the battery capacity rating (AH). eg. a typical battery has a rating of 40 Ampere Hours, therefore the charging rate should be 4 amps , and a complete charge will take 10 hours.
