IMPORTANT
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the battery charger manufacturer may result
in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
2. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when
disconnecting charger.
3. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension
cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock.
4. Do not operate charger with damaged cord or plug-replace the cord or plug immediately Do
not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any
way;take it to a qualified serviceman.
5. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger from outlet before attempting any maintenance
or cleaning. Turning off controls will not reduce this risk.
6. 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.
7. Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches when working
with batteries. Batteries produce a short-circuit current high enough to weld a ring or other
similar objects to metal, causing a severe burn.
8. Someone should be within range of your voice, or close enough to come to your aid when you
work near batteries, Wear eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid touching your eyes
while working near batteries.
9. Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing, and
eyes.
10. Keep a supply of baking soda on hand in the area of the batteries. Baking soda neutralizes
lead-acid battery electrolyte.

your eyes, immediately flood them with running cold water for at least twenty minutes and get
medical atttention immediately.
12. DO NOT attempt to fix the unit by disassembling or modification. You can cause self injury and
disassembling and modifying the unit will void your warranty.

electrical installations.
