DC CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS
(CONTINUED)
FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN THE BATTERY IS OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
1. Check the polarity of the battery posts. A POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery post usually has a larger diameter
than the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) post.
2. Connect the RED POSITIVE cable clamp or ring terminal to the POSITIVE post of battery.
3. Position yourself as far away from the battery as possible – then connect the BLACK NEGATIVE charger cable clamp
or ring terminal to the NEGATIVE post of the battery.
4. Connect the charger’s AC supply cord to the electric outlet.
5. When disconnecting the charger, always do so in reverse sequence of the connecting procedure and break
the first connection while standing as far away from the battery as possible.
6. A marine (boat) battery must be removed and charged on shore.
Charging it on board requires equipment specially designed for marine use.
ABOUT EWC61224-563
1. The EWC61224-563 is designed for charging all types of 6V/12V/24V lead-acid batteries, including WET (Flooded), GEL,
MF (Maintenance-Free), EFB (Enhanced Flooded Battery), AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) batteries.
It is suitable for charging battery capacities from 14 to 230 Amp-Hours and maintaining all battery sizes.
2. The built-in intelligent microprocessor makes charging faster, easier and safer.
3. This charger has safety features, including spark proof, protection for reverse polarity, short circuit, over current,
overcharge and overheat.
4. It has auto-memory, which means it can return to the last selected mode when restarted (except Standby and Supply Modes).
5. When the battery level indicator turns to CHARGED (solid green LED), it will automatically switch from a full charge
to maintenance status to maintain the battery during prolonged periods of storage without overcharging or damaging it.
6. The EWC61224-563 has four external holes for mounting. Mount the charger in a desired location with self-drill screws.
It is important to keep in mind the distance from the charger to the battery. The length of the DC cable from the charger,
with either the battery clamp or ring terminal, is approximately 75 inches (1900mm).
