DANGER: NEV ER ALTER THE AC POW ER CORDS ET OR PLUG PROVIDED. IF IT WILL NOT FIT
AN OUTLET, OBTAIN THE CORRECT CHARGER IEC AC POWER CORDS ET FOR THE OUTLET, OR
HAV E A P ROP ER OUTLET INSTALLED BY A QUALIFI ED ELECTRI CIAN. IMPROPER CONNECTION
CAN RES ULT IN A RISK OF ELECTRI C SHOCK.
If an extension cord is necessary, it must be a 3 -conductor, No. 10 AWG (6.0mm) minimum, heavy-duty cord
with ground. It must also be in good electrical condition and as short as possible, 25 ft (7.6m) maximum.
Make sure that the pins on the plug of the extension cord are the same number, size, and shape as the AC
power c ord plug on the charger. The use of an improper extension cord could result in a risk of fire or
electrical shock.
Locate all cords so that they will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage , stress, or
accidentally disconnected.
CAUTION: V ERIFY THAT THE AC POWER CORDS ET IS FULLY ENGAGED IN THE IEC INLET AND
CANNOT BE P ULLED LOOS E BEFORE USI NG THE CHARGER.
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! CONNECT THE AC SUPPLY CORDS ET DIRECTLY TO A
GROUNDED, 3-WIRE OUTLET. DO NOT TOUCH UNINSULATED PORTION OF DC OUTPUT
TERMINALS OR BATTERY TERMINALS. REP LACE DEFECTIV E CORDS, WIRES , OR CONNECTORS
IMMEDI ATELY.
6 DC OUTPUT
WARNI NG: LEAD-ACI D BATTERIES GENERATE EXPLOSIV E GAS. CHARGE ONLY IN W ELL
VENTILATED AREAS. TO PREV ENT ARCING OR BURNING NEAR BATTERIES, DO NOT
DISCONNECT THE DC CHARGI NG CONNECTOR(S) FROM THE BATTERIES WHEN THE CHARGER IS
OPERATING. IF THE CHARGE CYCLE MUST BE I NTERRUPTED, UNPLUG THE AC POWER CORD
BEFORE DISCONNECTI NG THE DC OUTPUT CONNECTOR(S ) FROM THE BATTERI ES. KEEP
SPARKS, FLAME, AND SMOKI NG MATERIALS AWAY FROM BATTERIES. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
FIRE, DO NOT US E THE CHARGER NEAR FLAMMABLE MATERIALS OR VAP ORS.
Only charge batteries of the same type, voltage, number of cells, and amp -hour capacities listed on the
charger ratings label. Before (1) using the charger for the first time or (2) using the charger with a battery
pack of a different type or ca pacity, use the ChargerConnect app to verify that the proper active battery profile
is selected (see Section 8).
6.1 Auto Voltage Mode
The 1425W charger models support automatic multi-voltage DC charging, referred to as Auto Voltage Mode.
Auto Voltage Mode provides automatic DC output voltage detection and adjustment so that battery packs of
nominal 36V and 24V can be charged with a single charger wit hout any configuration changes ne eding to be
made to the charger when switching between battery packs of different nominal voltages .
When connected to a 142
5W charger model with the ChargerConnect app (see Section 8), the “System
P
rofile” screen will include an “Auto Profile” selection box, which provides the following three (3) options:
OFF:
Single voltage mode
– you MUST ensure that the nominal DC voltage of the “Active Battery
Profile
” for the charger matches the nominal DC voltage of the connected battery pack.
PER VOLTAGE PROFILES
: A battery profile can be assigned for 36V and a different battery profile
can be assigned for 24V. The proper battery profile is aut omatically selected based on the connected
battery pack. This mode is primarily used when the charger will be charging 36V and 24V nominal
battery packs where the battery packs are of different types and/or capacities so using the “Scalable
Profile” mode is not appropriate.
