Never use a battery for ignition that is connected to a battery charger.
Always unplug the battery charger before attaching the ignition power cables to the battery.
Never let the striker plate accidentally contact the torch, rods, or work area. Electrical shock and
sparks may result.
The battery can discharge if the striker plate continuously contacts the work area. Exercise caution
to prevent complete discharge of the battery.
Polarity does not matter for ignition since only a direct short is required to ignite the rod.
