Engine parts become very hot when engine is running. To
prevent severe burns, avoid contact with hot engine parts.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry while working on
engine. Loose clothing can get caught in fan, pulleys, belts,
etc. Jewelry can conduct current and can cause severe
burns if comes in contact between power source and
ground.
When the engine is running, be cautious when working
around the ignition coil, distributor cap, ignition wires and
spark plugs. They are HIGH VOLTAGE components that can
cause electrical Shock.
Always keep a fire extinguisher readily available and easily
accessible in the workshop.
2.2 Other Precautions:
This Battery Analyser is meant for testing of 12 Volts batteries only.
Its operating voltage is from 9V ~ 15V DC and should not be tested on 24V
directly. It will cause damage the unit. For 12V x 2 batteries (in series or
parallel), disconnect the connections and test them individually.
Battery that has just been charged by the charger contains surface charge
and it should be discharged by turning ON the Head lights for 3~5 minutes
before testing.
Always attached the analyser clips on the lead side of the battery terminal
posts during testing so that it has a good contact. This will provide better
and accurate results.
Do not attach the analyser clips directly onto the steel bolt that tightened to
the battery terminal posts; this may give inaccurate readings or inconsistent
results. (Note: This also applies to all other battery testing methods.)
If the battery terminal posts were oxidised or badly corroded and the
connections were bad, the analyser will prompt you to check the connections.
In this case, clean the terminal posts and performs testing directly on the
terminal posts it-self.
