OPERATION

1. Identify the polarity of the battery terminals. The positive battery terminal is
typically marked by the letters or symbols (POS,P,+). The negative battery
terminal is typically marked by the letters or symbols (NEG,N,-).
2.
DO NOT
make any connections to the carburetor, fuel lines or thin metal
parts.
3. Identify if you have a negative or positive grounded vehicle. This can be
done by identifying which battery post (POS or NEG) is connected to the
vehicle chassis.
4. For a negative grounded vehicle
(most common): Connect the
RED POSITIVE battery clamp first to
the positive battery terminal, then
connect the BLACK NEGATIVE
battery clamp to the negative
battery terminal or vehicle chassis.
5. For a positive grounded vehicle
(very uncommon): Connect the
BLACK NEGATIVE battery clamp
first to the negative battery
terminal, then connect the RED
POSITIVE battery clamp to the
positive battery terminal or
vehicle chassis.
6. When disconnecting, disconnect in the reverse sequence of points 4 or 5,
depending if your vehicle is negatively or positively grounded.
