Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by PulseTech Products may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons. 3. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger. 4. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary.
9. WARNING – RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES. a) WORKING IN VICINITY OF A LEAD-ACID BATTERY IS DANGEROUS. BATTERIES GENERATE EXPLOSIVE GASSES DURING NORMAL BATTERY OPERATION. FOR THIS REASON, IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE THAT EACH TIME BEFORE USING YOUR CHARGER, YOU READ THIS MANUAL AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY. b) To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and those published by battery manufacturer and manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in vicinity of battery.
h) Use charger for charging a LEAD-ACID battery only. It is not intended to supply power to a low voltage electrical system other than in a starter-motor application. Do not use battery charger for charging dry-cell batteries that are commonly used with home appliances. These batteries may burst and cause injury to persons and damage to property. i) NEVER charge a frozen battery. j) CAUTION: Pinch/Crush Hazard. Close lid slowly. Ensure battery cables are properly routed through the front. 11.
b) Never place charger directly above battery being charged; gases from battery will corrode and damage charger. c) Never allow battery acid to drip on charger when reading electrolyte specific gravity or filling battery. d) Do not operate charger in a closed-in area or restrict ventilation in any way. e) Do not set a battery on top of charger. 13. GROUNDING AND AC POWER CORD CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS a) Charger should be grounded to reduce risk of electric shock.
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 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.
b) Attach at least a 24-inch-long 6-gauge (AWG) insulated battery cable to NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) battery post. c) Connect POSITIVE (RED) charger clip to POSITIVE (POS, P, +) post of battery. d) 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. e) Do not face battery when making final connection.
c) Connect the charger in accordance with paragraphs 1-16. d) Turn on switch located adjacent to the IEC input connection. This switch has a built in circuit breaker. If the charger turns off for no apparent reason, turn the switch to the off position and turn it back on again. DO NOT TAMPER WITH OR REMOVE SWITCH. e) See paragraph 19 for explanation of the LED indicators. 19. INDICATORS: a) The unit will conduct a self-test when the power is turned on.
f) Charge Complete – The battery has been recovered and is fully charged; remove the battery and place it in service or leave it connected to maintain the battery in a fully charged state. g) Reverse Polarity – The battery clamps are connected backward; reverse the clamps to continue. h) Temperature Shutdown – The channel has overheated and turned off the charge to protect itself from permanent damage. No action is required. It will turn itself back on when it has sufficiently cooled. 20.
