DC Terminals
The DC terminals may ONLY be used for charging 12 volt automotive type batteries. The
terminals are colored red to identify the positive (+) terminal and black to identify the
negative (-) terminal. The battery must be connected to the generator DC terminals with the
proper polarity (battery positive to generator red terminal and battery negative to the
generator black terminal).
With DC Circuit Protector
With DC Fuse
DC Circuit Protector (or DC Fuse)
The DC circuit protector(or DC Fuse) automatically shuts off the DC battery charging circuit
when the DC circuit is overloaded, when there is a problem with the battery, or the connections
between the battery and the generator are improper.
The indicator inside the DC circuit protector button will pop out to show that the DC circuit
protector has switched off. Wait a few minutes and push the button in to reset the DC circuit
protector.
Connecting the battery cables:
1) Before connecting charging cables to a battery that is installed in a vehicle, disconnect the
vehicle’s grounded battery cable.
WARNING
The battery gives off explosive gases; keep spark, flames and cigarettes away. Provide
adequate ventilation when charging or using batteries.
2) Connect the positive (+) battery cable to the battery positive (+) terminal.
3) Connect the other end of the positive (+) battery cable to the generator.
4) Connect the negative (-) battery cable to the battery negative (-) terminal.
5) Connect the other end of the negative (-) battery cable to the generator.
6) Start the generator.
